After the Viewer & Recorder Utility has been installed, the Viewer & Recorder Utility icon will be displayed in two

There are two ways to open the Viewer & Recorder Utility:

Double-click the icon on your desktop (the icon acts as a shortcut)

Right-click the icon in the system tray, and then click Main Program.

It is divided into two sections, Cameras and Scheduled Recordings in progress. From this screen, you can control
Cameras, view video, and schedule recordings.

information, click the ? button in the upper right-hand corner. To close the Utility, right-click the Viewer &
Recorder Utility icon in your desktop’s system tray. Then click Exit.
