cannot exceed the number of zones in the grid (displayed in the lower left corner of Motion Settings).

A lower level Save to menu allows to specify the directory path for video archives and for snapshot images. Note that while the name of archival directory should be the same for all cameras, it is possible to specify different Hard Drives for each camera.
Advanced
“Don’t update sensor window” is an option that determines how the changes to the image size are applied: at a software level or in hardware (the image sensor). Enabling this option helps to avoid conflicts when multiple users are viewing the same camera (each will be able to set different image size). Alternatively, disabling this option allows to increase the camera frame rate due to a smaller image size.
“Use DirectX if possible” is an option to use DirectX functions that utilize graphics card hardware to display images instead of using the software. This reduces the load on the CPU. The
“Auto – Startup” is an option to automatically restart the CBC Video System with the earlier settings after it was stopped.
“RealTime if folded” is an option to continue running the CBC Video System application at the top priority level in the Windows Task Manager after the application was minimized and placed onto the system tray of the Windows task bar.
“Show motion” is an option to mark the areas of the image where motion was detected.
“Use double packets” is an option to use data packets with 2904 bytes instead of the regular 1450 bytes for image transmission. This allows to increase image transmission bandwidth, but may lead to a less stable performance on overloaded networks.
“Warning on disconnect” is an option to display a red screen warning in place of live video that has been disconnected or temporarily lost. An alternative (when disabled) is to display the last captured frame.
“Static ARP” is an option to enable a static link between the camera’s MAC address and its IP address. An alternative is a dynamic ARP that is not supported by some of the older models of the CBC cameras.
