5.2 DISPLAY CONTROL PANEL

The Display Control Panel includes the Display Mode buttons along with buttons which allow you to cycle automatically or manually through individual or groups of channels.

Buttons currently in effect are highlighted.

The Drive Capacity Indicator Bar will fill in as

more files are recorded to the drive. When thePICTURE 5-3drive is at capacity, the bar will be red.

DISPLAY MODES

Choose the number of channels you wish to view simultaneously. If you have fewer cameras than portions of the screen, those channels without cameras will remain black.

Available modes are single-, four-, nine-. 16- and 36-screen displays. The software will only

display the modes appropriate to the numberPICTURE 5-4of cameras you have connected.

AUTO DWELL DISPLAY

If the Main Display is currently showing fewer channels than are available, you can have the DVR automatically cycle through and show the feed from each camera or group of cameras by selecting the button.

PAGE FLIP

This button allows you to manually cycle through the channels. Like the Auto Dwell feature, if there are more channels available than are currently being displayed in a multi-screen display mode, this button will take you to the next group of video feeds.

5.3 OTHER CONTROLS

Log In will be covered in the following section and the remaining operations on the left hand side of the Main Display Interface will be covered in Chapter 7. The two remaining functions are Snapshot and Urgent Record.

SNAPSHOT

Usable in single image display mode, pressing this button will take a series of still images from the camera currently being displayed and will save them to a location on the hard drive. Settings to determine the number of images (up to 32) as well as the location to where they will be saved will be covered in Chapter 6.

URGENT RECORD

Clicking the Urgent Record icon will cause all cameras to begin recording regardless of their schedule or recording mode. Video will be saved to the location designated by the user. Like Snapshot, the settings for this feature will be covered in Chapter 6.
