A macro to replicate protected records starts working when the archive reaches its limit and FIFO overwriting starts (see Configuring recording to an archive)

You must create and configure a Cycle rules macro (see General information about macros) to automatically copy protected records to a separate archive:Image Added

  1. The first

You have to create and set up a cyclical macro (see General information about the macros) as follows:

  1. First action in the macro must be the Awaiting (1).
    Image Removed
  2. The timeout delay value sets the time interval for checking Video Footage for protected records (2).
  3. The second
  4. action in the macro must be
  5. checking Video Footage for
  6. Check protected records
  7. (3). On this step, you have to:Select
  8. in archive. In this action, do the following:
    1. In the Camera field, select a camera or a group of cameras
  9. whose Video Footages have to
    1. , the archive of which must be checked for protected records
  10. (4)
    1. .
    2. If you select a
  11. particular camera
    1. specific camera, in the Record to field, specify the archive
  12. to be checked (5)
    1. that you want to check for protected records. If you select a group of cameras
  13. was selected
    1. in the previous step, only the default archive
  14. will be checked for each of them (see Setting
    1. is checked (see Configuring the default archive). 
  15. Specify
    1. In the Depth of check field, specify the depth of
  16. the
    1. check in HH:MM:SS format
  17. (6)
    1. . The time interval between checks is calculated as follows: [starting time of the earliest recording in an archive, starting time of the earliest recording in an archive + depth of
  18. the
    1. check].
    2. Add
  19. data
    1. Start replication as
  20. a conditional action upon discovery of
    1. an action that must be performed when there are protected records within the
  21. scanning
    1. check interval (
  22. 7,
    1. see Start replication). 
    2. Select During as the
  23. Replication time for a time interval (8). The replication duration defines
    1. replication period. Replication duration determines the time interval from which protected records
  24. have to be
    1. are copied to another

    1. must be
  32. equal to the depth of the check defined in Step 3c
    1. the same as the Depth of check parameter

The screenshot shows the settings that make the system scan once in a minute (2) check for protected records in Camera 4's (4) 1. Camera in the archive AliceBlue (5) within the [starting time of the earliest recording in archive; starting time of the earliest recording in archive + 10 minutes] time interval (6)every 10 minutes. If there are protected records in this interval contains protected records, the replication will be launched to copy replication starts, and all protected records falling into , the start of which is in the [starting time of the earliest recording in an archive; starting time of the earliest recording in an archive + 10 minutes] (8) interval, are copied to the replication archive specified for replication.
