NVR 2.3 (V2.3.05.11) User’s Manual
After adding the cameras, you will be redirected back to the Map Information screen where the
newly added cameras are placed over the map image. Note that each camera on the map
appears twice
– one as a camera icon to be positioned on the map and another one with
the small preview window to be placed anywhere you like. We recommended you to put it
as close as possible to the camera icon so it is clear to the user which preview represents
which camera. You may also want to leave a little space to the right of cameras so that the
popup camera information window does not interfere with the live image in Active Map.
You can drag and drop the cameras around the map to position them. The currently selected
camera will be highlighted with a green border. You may also move the live preview windows by
the same means. Note that there is no actual live preview during Setup stage. You will be able
to see live preview later on when you start using the ActiveMap.
By checking the checkbox [Display Camera ID on eMap Viewer], the camera icons shown
on the Active Map with live previews will contain the camera IDs for better recognition
It is also possible to add the viewing direction arrows for each camera icon on the map. In the
camera information section, click on the drop down list under [Direction] and choose one of
the 8 possible directions: [Upper left], [Up], [Upper right], [Right], [Lower right], [Down], [Lower
left], [Left]. As soon as you select any of the directions, the arrows indicating view angle
will appear beside the camera icon. Press [Apply] to save the changes when finished with all
the icons.
The live preview images can be resized by pressing [Resize] button. There are three sizes
available
– [Small], [Medium] and [Large]. The default size is [Small].
On the Camera Information section you can also find Camera ID and Camera Name. These
items are not editable under E-map system. You have to go to the Camera Setup page to edit
the name and ID if necessary.
If you want to replace the existing map image, just click on the file name and the file browsing
window will pop up.
You can delete the camera from the map by pressing [Delete Camera] button if necessary.
Please note that it will not delete the camera from the NVR system, but only from the current
E-map.
You can delete the map by pressing [Delete Map] button if necessary.
