Chapter 3 — Operation


NOTE: This chapter assumes your DVR has been installed and configured. If it has not, please refer to Chapter 2.


LIVE MONITORING


As soon as the DVR completes its initialization process, it will begin displaying live video on the attached monitor
and playing live audio through the attached speaker. The default mode is to display all cameras at once. Pressing any
camera button on the remote control will cause that camera to display full screen. The DVR continues displaying live
video and playing live audio until the user enters another mode.

Press the MENU button on the remote control, and the following menu icons display at the top of the screen. Pressing
the MENU button again hides the menu icons. You can navigate through menus and items by pressing the arrow buttons
on the remote control.

Freeze

Sequence

Camera Menu

Alarm Off

Setup

Search Mode


NOTE: The menu icons also can be displayed by moving the mouse pointer to the top of the screen.

Freeze


Selecting the

(Freeze) icon will freeze the current image on the screen until you select Freeze again. It is the same

as pressing the FREEZE button on the remote control. Selecting the

icon again exits 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 the

(Sequence) icon causes the cameras to display sequentially. It is the same as pressing the SEQUENCE

button on the remote control. When in one of the multiview formats, selecting Sequence 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 select the

icon in the 2x2 format, the 16-channel DVR changes pages as

follows:

Full Sequence

Cameo Sequence


Selecting another display mode or selecting the

icon again 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).
