Video output

The recorder automatically checks the monitor outputs used. If more than one
monitor is connected, it then defines which monitor is the main one and which is
the event one. The spot monitor is used to display detected events such as
motion. Only one monitor can be controlled at a time.

If a HDMI monitor is used, it will be the main output. If HDMI and VGA monitors
are both connected to the DVR, both will be main monitors; they will both show
the same view. However, you will not be able to control each individually.

To select the video output of the main monitor:

1. From the menu toolbar, click

Display Mode Settings

>

Layout

>

General

.

2. From

Video Output Interface

, select which monitor will be the main monitor:

HDMI (depends on DVR model), VGA, main analog, or spot output. VGA is
default, if connected.

To control a monitor:

On the front panel, press button A to select the main monitor. Press button B
to select the spot monitor.

Audio output

The HDMI monitor connector on the back panel outputs both video and audio
signals. There are audio outputs on the back panel for speakers.

Controlling live view

Many features of the live view can be quickly accessed by placing the cursor on
a live image and clicking the right-button of the mouse. The mouse menu
appears (see Figure 12 on page 35).
