Camera OSD
The recorder lets you configure which information is displayed on-screen for each individual
camera.
The on-screen display (OSD) settings appear in live view mode and include the camera name,
time and date. They are part of the image and are therefore also recorded.
To configure the OSD settings:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Configuration > Camera Setup > Camera OSD.
2. Select the desired camera and enter a name for the camera, if required. The name can
have up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
3. Select the Display Name, Display Date, and Display Day check boxes to display the
camera name, date, and week.
