The DISPLAY SETUP MENU 
of the DVR. In this picture, 

the mouse cursor is 

currently highlighting the 

CH1 title fi eld.

Naming Channels

You can change the name of any channel from the default (and rather drab) “CHx” 
to anything that you would like (provided it’s short enough to fi t in the box). A 
descriptive name on each channel often makes it easier to remember what camera 
is where, and which channel would have captured an event you might be looking 
for.

Title: 

The name that will be displayed over the image from a channel. Simply 

highlight this box and enter the new name you would like.

Position:

 Where the title of the channel is displayed on screen. You can choose 

any of the four corners of the display (UPLEFT being the top left-hand corner, and 
DOWNRIGHT being the lower, right-hand corner).

AUTOSEQ (Auto-Sequence)

The Camera (Display Setup) Menu

When AUTOSEQ (automatic sequencing mode) is 
engaged, the DVR will automatically cycle through all 
available channels, displaying each in turn expanded to 
fi ll the entire screen.

In the AUTOSEQ drop-down menu, you can select how 
long you’d like each channel to appear, as well as the 
quad-view mode. Each can be confi gured  individually, 
so you can fi ne tune exactly how long you’d like each 
channel to be visible for. The DVR will skip channels 
which been disabled during the auto-sequence.

Remember: After making changes to the settings press/click the APPLY button.
