Changing the Camera Order in the List

Using IP surveillance Software (continued)

You can “drag and drop” in the grid area of the camera list to change the

sequence of the connected Network Cameras, which is shown below. This will

allow you to rearrange the cameras in an order of your choice. Once the camera

is moved to a specified location, the proceeding cameras will then move 1

position up or 1 position down depending on which direction the selected camera

was moved.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Press the left mouse button

at the gray index field.

selected location and release

the mouse button. Then Video

Global Settings

After completing the connection to each remote Network Camera, we need to

configure some global settings for all the cameras. These include the video

database directory, the usage of the Hard disk, and options for video display.

You can activate the global settings window from “Configuration Menu > Global

Settings...” shown above.

All recording processes will be stopped when activating the global settings

window,

indicated by a warning window popped up in advance to keep you
