Figure 2. 5 Configure Signal Input Type
 For DS-H1XXU series, the default TVI/CVBS signal input type also supports the auto detection of 3MP
signal. And each two types of the TVI/CVBS signals can be mixed randomly.
 For DS-H1XXG series DVR, each four video channels are grouped in sequence, e.g., CH01-CH04,
CH05-CH08..., and each four channels in the same group must be connected with the same type of video
source selected on GUI. For example, when the TVI/CVBS signal mode is selected, then either TVI or
CVBS signal input can be connected to the channels in the same group; and when the AHD signal mode is
selected, only the AHD signal input can be connected.
 For other DS-H1XXQ series DVR, each two video channels are grouped in sequence, e.g., CH01 and CH02,
CH03 and CH04..., and each two channels in the same group must be connected with the same type of video
source selected on GUI. For example, when the TVI/CVBS signal mode is selected, then either TVI or
CVBS signal input can be connected to the channels in the same group; and when the AHD signal mode is
selected, only the AHD signal input can be connected.
 In the live view interface, when there is no video signal of the analog channel, the corresponding connectable
video signal type message can be displayed on the screen.
 The IP channels will not be displayed on the interface and you can view the max. IP camera accessible
number in the Max. IP Camera Access text field. Disabling one analog channel will add one IP channel. The
accessible IP channels are X+2 or X+1(X refers to the disabled analog channel or channels of the DVR.).
