There are two main ways to navigate through the menus on the DVR. One is to use

the included USB mouse. This is the fastest and easiest way to navigate through the

menus, make selections and input information. We highly recommend using the

mouse to operate your DVR.
The other way is to use the buttons on the remote control. This is ideal for times

when your DVR is not within reach or you only want to perform basic functions.

USB Mouse

When a USB mouse is attached to the DVR, it allows for easy navigation and operation

of the menus. In this capacity, the mouse functions in a very similar manner to the

mouse attached to a computer. The left mouse button is used to select, confirm

choices and otherwise interact with the menu system. The right mouse button

opens the pop-up menu (when pressed in live-viewing mode) or exits a menu (when

pressed whilst in the menu system).

Remote Control

For an explanation of the functions of the buttons on the remote control, see

“Layout of the Remote Control” on page 10. Many of the controls operate in a

similar manner to controls on a DVD player or similar. However, due to the specific

and multi-channel nature of the DVR, the functionality of some buttons may not be

immediately obvious.

IMPORTANT:

The DVR displays the menu on only one output at a time. If the DVR is not

displaying the menu on the screen you have connected, press the 0 key on the

remote control to swap displays.
