Freeze
Selecting (Freeze) in the Live Monitoring menu will freeze the current image on the screen until you
select again. It is the same as pressing the (Play/Pause) button on the front panel. While in the Freeze
mode, the icon displays in bottom-left corner if

Sequence
Selecting (Sequence) in the Live Monitoring menu causes the cameras to display sequentially. It is the
same as pressing and holding the
SEQUENCE
button on the front panel for three seconds or longer. When
in one of the multi-view formats, pressing this button will cause the DVR to go through predefined screen
layouts (Full Sequence). Or, the bottom, right screen will display live cameras sequentially (Cameo Sequence).
For example, if you press the
SEQUENCE
button in the 2x2 format, the DVR changes pages as follows:
< Full Sequence >
< Cameo Sequence >
Selecting again in the Live Monitoring menu exits the Sequence mode. While in the Sequence mode,
the icon displays in bottom-left corner if Sequence is selected in the Display setup screen (OSD tab). If
all the cameras in a page are Off, or have lost video or are set to Covert (unless the user has authority to view
covert cameras), that page will be excluded from the sequence.

Full Sequence

Cameo Sequence
for the cameo
sequence monitoring should be selected in the Display setup screen (Main Monitor tab).
