LIVE MONITORING
RASplus provides remote monitoring functions for viewing video images in real time from either a single site or multiple
sites. In addition, when events are detected at a remote site while in the live monitoring mode, RASplus displays the
event information on the Watch Event View panel. In order to perform live monitoring, the display option must be
set to Watch Screen or Watch and Search Screen during System setup.
To connect a remote site on the Watch screen, select the site or camera you want to connect to in the Remote Site or
Favorite Sites panel and then drag and drop it in the desired position on the screen. The
icon will be displayed on
each Watch screen. Click the button on the toolbar or select Disconnect from the System drop-down menu to
disconnect the current connection manually.
NOTE: When selecting the display option of Watch and Search Screen during System
setup, the remote site can also be set to connect using the right or left mouse buttons
(This is user-defined and must be set during System setup). Select Watch Screen to connect
to the selected site on the Watch screen when the text menu screen appears.
Layout and Frame Layout
RASplus provides multiple screen layout options. The formats available are single-screen, quad, 1+7, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5,
1+32, 6x6, 7x7, 8x8 and full-screen. When in one of the multi-view formats, clicking the
or button will move
to the previous or next page. To view a specific image in the single-screen mode, move the cursor to that image and
double click the left mouse button. To return to the previous screen mode from the single-screen mode, double click
the left mouse button in the monitoring window.
Clicking (Layout Load) will apply the selected frame layout to RASplus, and clicking (Layout Setup) allows
you to set up the user-defined frame layout.
Audio Communication
RASplus supports audio communication between the RASplus system and a DVR location equipped with two-way
audio. The
icon will be displayed on each camera screen. If you want to enable audio communication with the
remote site, select any camera of the remote site on the screen and click the right mouse button. Selecting Enable Audio
from the menu displays the following audio control panel.
If you want to send audio to the selected remote site, click the button and talk into the microphone. If you want to
monitor live audio from the selected remote site through the attached speaker, click the button. Clicking both
button and button allows two-way communication. Clicking the button disables audio communication.
If the remote DVR allows you to select an audio channel to monitor from the RASplus system,
clicking the button displays the following Select Audio Channel dialog box. Select
an audio channel to monitor and click the OK button.
