HDD
For accessing information about your hard drive. This is where you go to correct or analyze any problem with your hard drive. Additionally, you’ll be able to see at a glance how much recording time you have left at your current quality settings, as well as being able to format (erase all data from) the hard drive here. You can format flash drives from this screen as well.

For configuring the DVR’s internal buzzer and
PTZ
The setup window for configuring the DVR to act as a PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) controller. Recommended for advanced users.
Mobile
For configuring the DVR to interface with mobile devices (mobile devices running Microsoft Windows Mobile®, Android, Symbian S60 (3rd or 5th edition) or iPhoneOS).
Motion
For setting up the motion detection features of the DVR. We suggest that motion detection is, under most circumstances, the most practical recording method for the DVR to employ.
