Control interfaces

The DVR 31 has three control interfaces:

•Built-in interface

•Display interface

•Web browser interface

Built-in interface. The built-in interface is displayed on the monitor output. It consists of a main menu and several dialog screens that let you configure and control the device. You can invoke the built-in interface using the front panel, remote control, or mouse.

Display interface. The display interface consists of various toolboxes that appear on top of the monitor image. These let you control live or playback video while in PTZ or playback mode. You can invoke the display interface from the built-in interface screens or from the mouse toolbar. The controls in any toolbox can be operated using the front panel, remote control, and mouse.

Web browser. The Web browser interface uses Internet Explorer to simulate the display and control functions of the VGA monitor on a remote PC. The Web browser interface can only be accessed by a PC with Internet access. See Chapter 5 “Using the Web browser” on page 43 for more information on the Web browser interface.
