Remote Monitoring Using QC View for iOS Q-Se Utilities Releas Q-Se Setup and Users Guide for Mobile Remote Monitoring QC Series Security DVRs on the iPhone and iPad
The QC View software allows you to remotely monitor your system using your mobile device and either a wireless or 3G/4G network. You will not be able to change the DVR’s settings using this application. That will need to be done either in the DVR itself or when remote monitoring using a computer. In order to monitor your system using your iPhone or iPad, you will need to install either the Q-See QC View app for smartphones or Q-See QC View HD app if you’re using a tablet.
STEP 1. To launch QC View, simply tap on its icon in your app menu. STEP 2. Upon launch, the program will display its main menu. To view your DVR, you will need to add it using the Device Manager option. PICTURE 2 STEP 3. A connection to our Demonstration system is already preloaded on the application. You can remove this from your list at any time, but it offers an easy option to get the feel of how to control your DVR before you begin. STEP 4.
STEP 5. You will need to enter certain details in order to access your DVR. You will most likely want to set up two methods to connect to your system - one for when you’re on the same network (ie; within the same building as the DVR and able to connect wirelessly to your network) as well as one for times when you’re away and will be accessing using the Internet IP address. DVR Title: This should be a descriptive name, such as “DVR Local” or “DVR Internet” to help you utilize the proper connection method.
OPERATION Once you have selected the device you wish to monitor, you are able to perform most operations on your mobile device that you can on the DVR itself or using either of the computer-based remote monitoring options. The major exception are that you cannot reconfigure your DVR using QC View and you can only record still images from your cameras onto your mobile device, but not videos. The Main menu gives you access to all of the functions of QC View.
Playback: You can access video files recorded on your DVR. Click on a channel to open the Device Manager to select which camera’s record to view. You will then need to select the date and the start and end times to search for the video (Picture 8). The playback controls are self-explanatory. You can view multiple cameras simultaneously. Capture a still image using the Snapshot icon at the bottom of the screen. Images captured will be saved in your Photos folder.
Channel Config: You are able to adjust the configuration of each video channel to optimize the performance on your iPad or iPhone. These settings will not change those set on your DVR, but instead allow you to compensate for being in areas where with poor connectivity, for example. PICTURE 9 Push Config: This window provides you a check list allowing you to indicate which cameras will alert you based on motion detection, camera masking, or a local alarm triggered at the DVR itself.
