Control Section
This section handles the general operation of your system. The icons
are presented top to bottom, first the left column, then the right.
Many of these are operated differently in the local interface (using
the mouse that is attached to the recorder) as compared to the web
interface. Differences are noted in the text.
Grid Modes
Depending on the capabilities of your recorder, it has two to four of
these icons. The number inside the icon shows how many cameras
(channels) are visible on the screen simultaneously. These range
from a single-camera view to a 4x4 grid of sixteen camera views.
If you have chosen a grid mode that does not display all the cameras
on your system at once, the display shows the view that features the
active camera by default (e.g., if camera 3 is active, then switching to
a 2x2 grid view shows channels 1–4).
You can double-click on a given camera view to switch to single-
channel mode with that camera. You can also click
Next Screen
(described below) to change the view.
Next Screen
When your screen is not showing all of your cameras, click this icon
to switch the view to the next camera or grid view, based on the
numbering of the cameras (e.g., switch from a grid view that shows
channels 1–4 to one that shows channels 5–8).
When all channels are visible, this button is disabled.
Full Screen Mode
When clicked, this hides the various live view controls, and fills the
screen with the current view mode (grid or single-camera), allowing
you to see more detail in each channel.
To exit full-screen mode,
