Front Panel Controls
Figure 20 — 16-Channel DVR front panel. (Others are similar.)
The front panel looks and operates much like a VCR combined with a multiplexer. Many of the
buttons have multiple functions. The following describes each button and control. Take a few
minutes to review the descriptions. You will use these to initially set up your DVR and for daily
operations.
Up, Down, Left, Right Arrow Buttons
These buttons are used to navigate through menus and GUI. They are also used to control Pan
and Tilt when in the PTZ mode. The arrow buttons can be used to move the position of the
active cameo screen, and also move through screen pages.
Enter Button
The
(Enter) button selects a highlighted item or completes an entry that you have made
during system setup. This is also used to enter or exit the active cameo mode during live
monitoring and playback.
Camera Buttons (1 to 16)
Pressing the individual camera buttons will cause the selected camera to display full screen.
They are also used to enter passwords.
