The Live View Screen

After you have completed the initial setup of your Digital Video Recorder (DVR)

through the Setup Wizard, whenever you power on your DVR, the first thing you’ll see

is the Live View screen. Live View is the default display mode of the DVR. It is where

you can watch live images from your cameras and do things on your DVR.
Read this chapter to learn about the Live View status icons and how to control and
manage your DVR using the channel toolbar and mouse menu.

Status Icons

Status icons appear when something is happening on the channel screen. At a

glance, you can quickly get useful information on your DVR and cameras’ status.
The following table describes what the icons represent:

Icon

Description

Indicates that an alarm event such as motion detection, video loss or

tampering has occurred.

Indicates that the DVR is is currently recording video from this

camera. This icon will be the same whether the recording was

scheduled, initiated manually or triggered by motion (though the

Alarm Bell icon will also be present if there’s motion detected).
(Optional -

Event Hint

setting must be enabled in the

“Exceptions”

screen in the

Configuration

menu.)

Indicates that an alarm event or exception has occurred. Click the

icon to access the

Alarm/Exception Information

log where you can

find specific details about the event.
Indicates that the channel displaying this has lost the feed from

the corresponding camera. This may be caused by a disconnected/

damaged cable, the camera may have lost power or the camera may

have been de-registered from the channel. This also appears if you

do not have a camera connected to the channel.
