Add/Edit Recorders

These steps allow you to add a local or remote recorder not registered with OWS. It is recommended that you use your OpenEye Web Services account to access recorders; if you log in using an OWS account, registered recorders will automatically become available.

NOTE: With the DVR Configuration permission checked, recorders can still be added manually when signed in with an OWS account. Recorders added manually will not appear if connected from a different Command Station install.
