To start recording, press [F7] on the keyboard, or click the Monitor button (No. 16, Figure 1-2) and

select a camera. By default, every camera records with the following settings:

When working with the system, you will undoubtedly want to change the settings as you go along. The

buttons on the main screen provide quick access to several popular Main System settings. Click any

button to see the menus of these settings.

To change recording mode, see Monitor Control in Adjusting Individual Camera later in this
chapter.

To change resolution, first you need to set up video source and resolution of your system (see
Setting Video Source and Resolution later in this chapter) and then define the resolution of each
camera (see Resolution Button in Adjusting Individual Camera later in this chapter.)

To change codec, see Recording Code in Adjusting Individual Camera later in this chapter.
