MyDVR: Interface
Preview: The default splash screen of MyDVR.
The screen layout emulates the multi-channel live view
screen of the DVR, showing you images coming directly from
your cameras in near-realtime (some delay is caused by the
network/Internet connection you’re using to access the DVR).
You can select a single camera, or multi-channel viewing by
using the Viewing Mode buttons in the lower right corner.
Playback: Opens the Playback interface, which operates in
much the same way as the playback interface on the DVR itself.
Settings (Conguration): Allows access to both the Local
Conguration screen and Remote Conguration menus.
Local Conguration: Denes how MyDVR will manage and
save footage/still images to your local PC.
Remote Conguration: Allows access to the DVR’s settings.
The congurable options are very similar to those you’ll nd
in the DVR menus.
Main Viewing Area: Where images from your camera will be
shown.
Playback / Backup Links: Quick access to playback and
backup.
PTZ Controls: For controlling PTZ devices. They operate in the
same way as those you’ll nd on the DVR itself.
Image Controls: You can alter the brightness, contrast,
saturation and hue of your images here. They operate in the
same way as those in the DVR’s menu (see “Camera: Display”
on page 20 for more information).
Viewing Modes: Choose between single camera viewing,
quad-mode (2 x 2, showing four cameras) and all (3 x 3
showing eight cameras - 8ch model only).
Volume Control: Alters how loud the audio output from the
DVR will be. Remember that the nal output volume will also
be aected by the master volume control of your operating
system, as well as the levels set on speakers or ampliers
connected to your system.

The overview of the DVR settings presented over the next few pages is just that - an overview.
The full explanation of the DVR’s menu system and conguration options are listed in detail from
page 18 onwards. The DVR’s menu system is functionally very similar to the MyDVR software
interface, and you’ll nd more detailed information about all menu options and settings there.
The relevant page for additional information is listed next to each menu screen.
