The default archive is used to record videos of alarms that are initiated by the user for a camera. You must set only one default archive for each camera. The first archive to which recording of a video stream from a camera was configured automatically becomes the default archive (see Configuring recording to an archive).
To change the default archive for a camera, do the following:
- Go to the Archive tab.
- Select the Server object.
The Default archives form displays a list of cameras and archives that are marked with corresponding colors. Each camera for which you configured recording to at least one archive has a corresponding archive that is the default archive for this camera. - To change the default archive for a camera, select the relevant archive.
- Click the Apply button.
Configuration of the default archive for a camera is complete.
