   The value specified in the "Hot record" rate ​​parameter allows you to calculate the time interval (in milliseconds), after which it is necessary to capture a frame for recording into the archive. The calculation is made according to the formula:
   Time interval = 1000 / The value specified in the "Hot record" rate ​​field
   with which the archive is recorded when the alarm occurs. The value of this parameter should not mustn't exceed the value of the frame rate with which the video signal is digitized.

5. In the "Hot record" time field (5) , specify the interval in seconds from the moment of alarm registration or the start of recording, during which the video is recorded with the frame rate specified in the "Hot record" rate ​​fieldtime period of recording with "hot" frame rate.
