Attach a device or group of devices to a storage

Once a storage is configured for a recording server, you can enable it for individual devices such as cameras, microphones or speakers or a group of devices. You can also select which of a recording server's storage areas you want to use for the individual device or the group.

  1. Expand Devices and select either Cameras, Microphones or Speakers as required.
  2. Select the device or a device group.
  3. Select the Record tab.
  4. In the Storage area, select Select.
  5. In the dialog box that appears, select the database that should store the recordings of the device and then click OK.
  6. In the toolbar, click Save.

When you click the device usage number for the storage area on the Storage tab of the recording server, the device is visible in the message report that appears.
