Viewing Video That Is Being Recorded
From the VCRs window, click the desired VCR icon and drag it to an appropriate VMX200 video window. The video that is being routed to the VCR
is displayed on the VMX200 video window, along with the VCR control tool bar.
OR
Drag and drop the same camera that is routed to the VCR into a VMX200 video window. This allows the camera to be viewed and controlled
through the VMX200 video window while it is being recorded on the VCR. This is useful in smaller systems when it is easy to remember which
camera is being recorded.
