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.
NOTE: Sequence cannot be used in the 3x3 and 1+7 modes of the 8-channel DVR, and 2x2
mode of the 4-channel DVR.
You can adjust the display dwell time by highlighting the box beside Interval and pressing the
button. You can select dwell intervals ranging from 1 second to 1 minute.
Highlight Event Monitoring On and press the button. Pressing the button toggles between
On and Off. When it is On, the DVR will display the camera associated with the event when an
event occurs.
