Connection of the DCS-6620G

Channel:

Once you have the privilege to connect to the DCS-6620G, the cameras will automatically appear in the video area in the order they are connected. Once you have set up the camera in the video channel, the color of the channel number will turn blue, indicating that the camera has been added to IP surveillance. If you do not set up the camera for the video channel, the color of the channel number will be gray.

There is a unique light signal associated with each channel number. It indicates the status of the dedicated video channel, which is depicted as follows:

Off

The video channel is not connected with any DCS-6620Gyet.

Green

The green light means the DCS-6620Gassociated with this channel number is connected, and the video is monitored in the video area.

Red

The red light indicates the video from this channel is recording into the video database. In this mode, you don’t have to drag and drop the channel to the video area. This means that this application software supports real-time recording with and without real-time monitoring for the dedicated video channel.

Blink

With the motion detection mechanism set in the DCS-6620G, the light of the corresponding channel will blink once the motion event is triggered.
