1. Export agent (1)—select the Server (formally the Export agent object) to which you want to export the video recording (see Configuring Export agent).
   

2. Camera (2)—select a camera, the video from which you want to export. An implicit selection of a video camera is also allowed—Camera that initiated command execution (see Configuring start conditions).

   Note
   title Attention!
   If the start of the macro was triggered a macro is started by an event from an an input or output (see Configuring start conditions) that is not connected to any camera, you need to select a specific camera here. If you select a group of cameras or a camera that initiated the command, the action doesn't start.

3. Archive (3)—select an archive, the video from which you want to export.

4. Set the export interval (4). 

   Option	Description
   Image export	Exports a frame with the time stamp identical to the start time of an action.  Attention! The image cannot be exported if the video camera does not have an archive
   Time schedule	You need to select a time schedule. Exports images from within the time schedule. Interval of the exported video − [beginning of the specified time schedule; the end of the specified time schedule]. Attention! If you don't specify the offset (see step 5c), the intervals from the time schedule are taken over the last 24 hours
   During	You must set the export duration in HH: MM: SS. The starting point of the exported video is the action start. End point is defined on the basis of the specified duration (interval [action start; action start + duration])
   Finish after	Select one or more events, after receiving which (any of them) export is stopped. The starting point of the exported video is the action start, the end point is the moment of receiving any these events

   
   

5. You can click the  button to add additional parameters:

   1. File name (5).

      Note
      title Attention!
      You can use the following templates for file names and text comments: %startTime% , or [START_TIME], or {startTime}: the starting time of exported interval. %finishTime% , or [FINISH_TIME], or {finishTime} : the finishing time of exported interval. You can use the following templates for macros started by a text message from an event source (see Configuring start conditions): %startEvent%, or [START_EVENT], or {startEvent}: an event that initiated export start. %finishEvent% , or [FINISH_EVENT], or {finishEvent}: an event that stopped the export.

   2. Comments superimposed as captions over the exported video (6).

   3. Offset (7) is a time period used to roll back the start time of exported video. If you set this this parameter to non-zero, the time interval of the exported video will be as follows:

      [action start − (duration + offset); action start − offset].
      If exported video(s) fall into a time schedule, this parameter is used to define the start time for video retrieval. For example, if you set the offset to 48 hours, all videos from the given time schedule recorded within 48 hours before the action start are exported.
