EVENT MONITORING
When an event occurs, the DVR will display the camera associated with that event if Event Monitoring On is selected
in the Display setup screen (OSD tab).
How the cameras are displayed depends on the number of cameras associated with the event. If one camera is associated
with the event, the DVR will display that camera full screen. If two to four cameras are associated with the event, the
DVR will display the cameras on a 2x2 screen. If five to eight cameras are associated with the event, the DVR will
display the cameras on a 3x3 screen.
Event monitoring lasts for the dwell time set for event recording. After the dwell time has elapsed, the monitor returns
to the previous screen unless another event has occurred. If you want to return to the live monitoring mode before the
dwell time has elapsed, press the LAYOUT or one of the camera buttons on the remote control.

active cameo mode will remains in effect for 15 seconds if there is no further operation.
