The LTC 2600 Series multiplexer includes a Digital Motion Detection feature that detects movement within the camera scene. When this feature is programmed and motion is detected, the record/display rates will increase.

Using the ACTION LIST facility, the priority of recording can be changed to include recording of camera pictures and at the same time prioritize picture display on the monitor.
