DISPLAY MODES
Choose the number of channels you wish to view simultaneously. If you have fewer cameras
than portions of the screen, those channels without cameras will remain black.
Available modes are single-, four-, nine-. 16-
and 36-screen displays. The software will only
display the modes appropriate to the number
of cameras you have connected.
AUTO DWELL DISPLAY
If the Main Display is currently showing fewer channels than are available, you can have the
DVR automatically cycle through and show the feed from each camera or group of cameras
by selecting the button.
PAGE FLIP
This button allows you to manually cycle through the channels. Like the Auto Dwell feature, if
there are more channels available than are currently being displayed in a multi-screen display
mode, this button will take you to the next group of video feeds.
5.3 OTHER CONTROLS
Log In will be covered in the following section and the remaining operations on the left
hand side of the
Main Display Interface will be covered in Chapter 7. The two remaining
functions are Snapshot and Urgent Record.
SNAPSHOT
Usable in single image display mode, pressing this button will take a series of still images
from the camera currently being displayed and will save them to a location on the hard drive.
Settings to determine the number of images (up to 32) as well as the location to where they
will be saved will be covered in Chapter 6.
URGENT RECORD
Clicking the Urgent Record icon will cause all cameras to begin recording regardless of their
