Highlight the box beside
Mode
and press the
button. You can select between Full Sequence and Cameo Sequence.
Selecting
(Sequence) in the Live Monitoring menu causes the DVR to sequence cameras, and the DVR can sequence
cameras in two modes: “Full” and “Cameo”. In the Full mode, the DVR sequences through the cameras and displays
them full screen. In the Cameo mode, the bottom right window in a multi-screen format sequences through the cameras.
NOTE: Any cameras that are Off, have lost video or are set to Covert (unless the user has authority to view covert
cameras) will be excluded from the Cameo sequence.
You can define the screen layout in a variety of formats and set the DVR to sequence through the different screen layouts
(pages) so that all the cameras will be displayed. You can also set up the DVR to display one camera or a group of
cameras all the time while cycling through the remaining cameras in a “cameo” window. This can be done with one
camera displayed full screen while displaying the cameo window as a PIP (picture in picture), or displaying the cameras
in a grid pattern with the bottom right window as the cameo.
