1.Connect the Video cable from the VIDEO OUT port on the Observation System to the VIDEO IN port on the DVR or VCR Unit
2.Connect the AUDIO cable from the AUDIO OUT port on the Observation System to the AUDIO IN port on the DVR or VCR unit (if available)
DVR NOTE:
When recording to a Digital Video Re- corder, the DVR may indicate a Video Loss as the monitor sequences be- tween channels. This Video Loss oc- curs because the monitor’s switching function is analogue, whereas the DVR is a digital product. Therefore a synchronization problem will result.
The solution to this problem is to ad- just the Video Loss alarm sensitivity setting to 3 frames on your DVR unit, or simply disable the video loss func- tion on your DVR. Please refer to the manual for your specific model of DVR for further information.
VCR NOTE:
Ensure the Standard VCR channel is set to A/V Mode in order to ensure re- ception. Consult the manual for your specific VCR for setting the A/V set- tings.
NOTE: VCR OUT ports are used for connecting recording devices (such as a DVR). SLAVE OUT ports are used for connecting display devices (such as a Slave Monitor)
