Image View Options
This row of buttons along the bottom of the Real-Time Monitor area allow you to set how you
will view the video feeds in addition to how many screens will be displayed simultaneously.
Some settings will display more channels than a single NVR can connect to, but if you are
controlling multiple NVRs of the same type using Q-See’s Centralized Management System
(CMS) you will be able to display the signals from multiple NVRs simultaneously. When you
do not have as many cameras as channels displayed, the empty channels will remain grayed
out and the area above each screen where the device name, stream and frame rate would be
displayed will remain blank instead.
The first three buttons in the row deal with image quality and size, while the remaining buttons
will configure the display to show 1-64 images.
Symbol Button Function
Image Quality This raises or lowers the quality of the image
Latency/Fluency Allows you to prioritize image quality versus
smoothness of the video
Full Screen Selecting this will expand the entire display to fill
the full screen, hiding all the controls.
In the case of the Image Quality and Latency/Fluency buttons, only the channel highlighted
in green will be affected.
In multi-screen mode, a channel can be clicked and dragged to another location. This is
useful in those modes where one or two screens are larger than the others. The channel being
replaced will move to the old location of the one that was moved.
Double clicking on a channel will bring that to single screen mode. Double clicking on it again
will return to the previous multi-channel format.
