3.2 Operations in Live View Mode
In live view mode, there are many functions provided. The functions are listed below.
• Single Screen: show only one camera on the monitor.
• Multi-screen: show multiple cameras on the monitor simultaneously.
• Auto-switch: the camera or display is auto switched to the next camera or display. You must set the dwell time for each screen in the
configuration menu before enabling the auto-switch. Menu>Configuration>Live View>Dwell Time.
• Start Recording: normal record and motion detection record are supported.
• Quick Set: select the output mode to Standard, Bright, Gentle or Vivid.
• Playback: play back the recorded videos for the current day.
• Aux/Main output switch: [for EZHD-TRF DVRs with CBVS aux monitor outputs] the DVR checks the connections of the output
interfaces to define the main and auxiliary output interfaces. The priority level for the main and aux output is HDMI/VGA>CVBS.
This means if the HDMI or VGA is used, it will be the default main output. If the HDMI/VGA is not used, the CVBS output will be
the main output. See the table below. NOTE: The HDMI and VGA images displayed are identical on EZHD DVRs.
