Selecting Monitors
Monitors display the video from the cameras installed around your facility. Each
monitor has an identification number associated with it. To select a monitor, use the
number buttons to enter the monitor number, and then press
(Monitor button).
Once a monitor has been selected by the keyboard, its identification number appears
in the MON field of the LCD. This monitor is referred to as the called monitor.
The number of monitors available to display video input is determined by your system
configuration. Refer to the appropriate operating instructions to determine the number
of monitors supported.
