Divide the number of cameras by the record rate (PPS).For example, 16 cameras with a record rate of 6PPS will be:Update rate (seconds) = Number of cameras = 16 = 2.67 secondsPPS 6You can decrease the update rate by increasing the record rate (PPS), the onlydrawback is that the total recording time will decrease.
