9.2 PC REMOTE DISPLAY AND OPERATIONS

Note: The frame rate is limited by the bandwidth of the network and the pre-record FPS of the camera

(Section 9.3.5). The picture quality depends on the recording resolution set in the DVR (Section 9.3.4) and

quality of the camera. See Section 9.4 for Dual Streaming options.
