3.2 Camera Layout and Quick Access

Use the buttons in the top section of the Live Viewer side toolbar to select the viewing style. If you have more cameras enabled than
can be displayed by the current view settings, you can right-click on the layout icon and select a page of cameras to display.

Software Rendered mode for 32 channel systems has these available viewing options:

Single view mode (1 camera), 2 x 2 mode (4 cameras), 3 x 3 (9 cameras), 4 x 4 (16 cameras), 5 x 5 (25
cameras), 6 x 6 (36 cameras). 2 large w/8 small cameras, 1 large w/12 small cameras.

Hardware Rendered mode viewing options vary based on the system model.

To quickly select a camera for Single Live View display mode, click its corresponding number in the
Camera Quick Access pad. Camera Quick Access also provides a simple way to check the recording
status of each camera, which is communicated through color:

l

Green

: Constant recording mode and is recording.

l

Blue

: Motion recording mode and is recording (motion detected).

l

Red

: Alarm recording mode and is recording (alarm triggered).

l

Yellow

: Set to a motion recording mode and is recording (motion currently not detected and will

stop after the Post Motion Record time has elapsed).

l

Uncolored: Camera is currently not recording, but is enabled.

l

Disabled: Camera is not recording and is disabled.

To arrange the cameras within the current view style, right-click on a camera position in the Live Viewer window and select a cam-

that is already displayed, it will move the camera feed to the new location.
