the icon on the system status area on the upper
right portion of the screen. To use the Event Monitoring
feature, navigate to Display Setup > Main Monitor and
enable Event Monitoring. Event Monitoring remains
in effect throughout the entire Linked Time. After that,
the NVR will return to the previous screen if a new event
does not take place. Pressing the Layout or a Camera
button before the end of the Linked Time reverts the
system to Live mode.

and status icons are not shown.
