Live Monitoring Menu

Freeze


Selecting (Freeze) in the Live Monitoring menu will freeze the current image on the screen until you select again.
It is the same as pressing the (Play/Pause) button. Pressing any button except for the

MENU

and

PANIC

buttons

while in the Freeze mode can also exit the Freeze mode. While in the Freeze mode, the icon displays in bottom-left
corner if Freeze is selected in the Display setup screen (OSD tab).

Sequence


Selecting (Sequence) in the Live Monitoring menu causes the cameras to display sequentially. It is the same as
pressing and holding the

SEQUENCE

button for three seconds or longer. When in one of the multi-view formats,

pressing this button will cause the DVR to go through predefined screen layouts (Full Sequence). Or, the bottom, right
screen will display live cameras sequentially (Cameo Sequence). For example, if you press the

SEQUENCE

button

in the 2x2 format, the DVR changes pages as follows:

< Full Sequence >

< Cameo Sequence >

Selecting again in the Live Monitoring menu exits the Sequence mode. While in the Sequence mode, the icon
displays in bottom-left corner if Sequence is selected in the Display setup screen (OSD tab). If all the cameras in a page
are Off, or have lost video or are set to Covert (unless the user has authority to view covert cameras), that page will be
excluded from the sequence.

NOTE: The

Full Sequence for the full sequence monitoring and the Cameo Sequence for the cameo sequence

monitoring should be selected in the Display setup screen (Main Monitor tab).
