Event Monitoring
When an event occurs, the DVR will display the camera associated with the event if Event Monitoring On is selected in
the Display setup screen (Main Monitor tab).
How the cameras are displayed depends on the number of cameras associated with the event. If one camera is associated
with the event, the DVR will display the camera full screen. If two to four cameras are associated with the event, the
DVR will display the cameras on a 2x2 screen. If five to nine cameras are associated with the event, the DVR will display
the cameras on a 1+5, 1+7 or 3x3 screen. If 10 or more cameras are associated with the event, the DVR will display
the cameras on a 4x4 screen.
Event monitoring lasts for the dwell time set for event recording. After the dwell time has elapsed, the monitor returns
to the previous screen unless another event has occurred. If you want to return to the live monitoring mode before the
dwell time has elapsed, press one of the camera buttons.
