Important
Risk of data loss and corrupted recordings. Do not remove the SD card while the device is running.
Unmount the SD card before you remove it.
Unmount: Click to safely remove the SD card.
Write protect: Turn on to stop writing to the SD card and protect recordings from being removed. You can’t
format a write-protected SD card.
Autoformat: Turn on to automatically format a newly inserted SD card. It formats the file system into ext4.
Ignore: Turn on to stop storing recordings on the SD card. When you ignore the SD card, the device no longer
recognizes that the card exists. The setting is only available to administrators.
Retention time: Select how long to keep recordings to limit the amount of old recordings or comply with data
storage regulations. When the SD card is full, it deletes old recordings before their retention time has passed.

from Windows®.

card. Any new data you store on the SD card will not be encrypted.

Use tool: Click to activate the selected tool.
Wear trigger: Set a value for the SD card wear level at which you want to trigger an action. The wear level
ranges from 0–200%. A new SD card that has never been used has a wear level of 0%. A wear level of 100%
indicates that the SD card is close to its expected lifetime. When the wear-level reaches 200%, there is a high
risk of the SD card malfunctioning. We recommend setting the wear trigger between 80–90%. This gives you
time to download any recordings as well as replace the SD card in time before it potentially wears out. The
wear trigger allows you to set up an event and get a notification when the wear level reaches your set value.
Stream profiles
A stream profile is a group of settings that affect the video stream. You can use stream profiles in different
situations, for example, when you create events and use rules to record.
