7.1 BASIC CONFIGURATION

Your card is pre-configured with default settings which meet the needs of most users, however it is designed to allow you maximum flexibility in configuring the system to meet your specific needs.

In the upper portion of the Basic Configuration window are settings which control additional aspects of your cameras. We have already covered the recording-specific settings in the previous chapter.

CAMERA DISPLAY SETTINGS

Dwell Interval

If you have enabled Auto Dwell function on the main interface page, then you can set the dwell time, in seconds, of a screen here.

Caption

There are four options, None, ID, Name, and ID/Name for users to select for all the channels.

‘None’ means no title or name;

‘ID’ means camera numbers, i.e. 1, 2, 3 and so on;

‘Name’ means camera names, i.e. Cam1, Cam2 and so on;

PICTURE 7-2

‘ID/Name’ means both camera number and camera name, i.e. 1/Cam1, 2/ Cam2 and so on.

Resolution

You may have resolution options of 320×240, 640x480, or 704x480 (NTSC) for users to select for all the channels depending on the card you are using.

Call Monitor

You can connect another monitor to the Spot Out port on the card and select the display modes here.

SYSTEM LOG IN AND REBOOT

You can enter your User Name and Password that you use to log into Windows so that the SuperDVR can log in upon startup or reboot.

Since the windows system may become unstable after a couple of days of continuous operating, it may cause SuperDVR to become unstable. You can use the software support auto-reboot option to help avoid this. Select the PC Auto Reboot tab in the center of the Basic Configuration screen and then check the box next to PC Auto Reboot and set the interval by day, which will cause the system to reboot automatically according to your schedule.

VIDEO CONFIGURATION

Clicking on the video configuration icon will open a new page which will allow you to change the contrast, brightness, hue, saturation and auto gain of individual cameras, by

moving the levers on the bars. Clicking Default will restore the default values.

The range of values is from 0 to 255.

Contrast - Set image color contrast.

Brightness - Set image brightness.

Hue - Set image hue.

Saturation - Set image Saturation
