Adding a display under a DVR
If the manufacturer of your DVR/NVR (Digital Video Recorder/Network Video Recorder) supports it, the video driver is capable
of displaying multiple video feeds on a single display connected to the DVR/NVR. This procedure configures a display under
a DVR.
Prerequisites: A DVR and cameras are installed on the local area network. You have already discovered or added the cameras
to the station.
- Double-click the Displays extension under the DVR in the Nav tree.
- In the Video Display Mgr view, click New Display.The first New window opens.
- Select the display and click OK.The second New window opens.
- Type a name and description for the display and click OK.The driver adds the display to the station.NOTE: There’s no way to ping the display because it is connected to the DVR and not directly to the network.
- To edit the name and description, click Edit.
- Expand the Nav tree and double-click the display device.The resulting view is the same as the Surveillance Viewer with the addition of a list of cameras displayed on the left side of the monitor.
- Select a camera in the list and drag it to one of the quadrants of the view.
- To update the display, click Save.The camera feed opens in the view.
