Repositioning Channels

You can reposition the channels on the display screen. This can be very useful when monitoring a live location(s).

To reposition the display channels using a mouse:

1. Using the mouse, remote control, or front panel, place the main display screen in either a quad display, or in a multi split-screen configuration.

NOTE: Repositioning will not work if the main display screen is in full-screen single channel.

1. Using the mouse, right-click anywhere on the screen to open the Virtual Remote.
2. From the Virtual Remote, click (typically channel 1). The Blue Window cursor appears in the top-left channel

3. Reposition the channels through the following:

4. Remote Control: Press the button for the channel you wish to place in the location of the Blue Window cursor. For example, if the cursor is on channel 1, and you want to have channel 4 in its location, press the 4 button on the remote control. You can also press F2 on the remote to open the Blue Window cursor, then press the desired channel number that you wish to change to

5. Front Panel: Press the button for the channel you wish to place in the location of the Blue Window cursor

Using the System

To reposition the display channels using a touch screen monitor:

1. Place the main display screen in either a quad display, or in a multi split-screen configuration.

NOTE: Repositioning will not work if the main display screen is in full-screen single channel.

1. Press and hold inside the channel you would like to move. Drag your finger to the channel you wish to reassign it to and release.

NOTE: If the Virtual Remote appears while doing this, you may ignore it. After repositioning the channel, tap anywhere outside the Virtual Remote to exit.

RECORDING

By default, the system is set to immediately record at startup from connected cameras. This is called continuous recording. It is highly recommended to keep continuous recording on at all times.

The system can perform Continuous Recording, Event Recording, and Schedule Recording. However, the system can only perform one type of recording at a given time.

Continuous Recording

By default, all camera channels are enabled with continuous recording. During Continuous Recording, the REC icon appears in the top left corner of the OSD.

Motion

When motion is detected, the system will continue to record, but can apply unique recording parameters for each camera that you can set in the EVENT and DAY EVENT MENU [Main Menu → Record → DAY or NIGHT (EVENT) → DAY or NIGHT EVENT]. The camera enabled with Motion Detection will have a RED icon number on the OSD.

Triggering secondary cameras in Motion recording

You can configure secondary cameras to begin motion recording when surrounding cameras detect motion. For example, if Camera 2 and 3 detects motion, the system can trigger Camera 1 to begin recording as an event.

To configure custom Motion recording settings:

1. Under the DAY EVENT or NIGHT EVENT tab, click [] beside the channel that you wish to configure.

1. Under MOTION, ensure that whatever channel y ou are configuring is selected. In this example, Camera 1 must be is selected, since it is the camera you are configuring. Select cameras 2 and 3.

How Do I Find My IP and MAC addresses?

The IP and MAC address of your system are necessary for DDNS setup. DDNS allows you to view and control your system from a remote location.

To find your IP and MAC address using the remote control:

- Press the INFO button.

To find your IP and MAC address using the mouse:

1. Open the MAIN MENU and select SYSTEM.
2. Under the INFO tab you will find your system's IP address and MAC address.

How Do I Enable Port Forwarding?

You need to enable port forwarding on your router to allow for external communications with your system for the following port:

• 80

Computers, DVRs, and other devices inside your network can only communicate directly with each other within the internal network. Computers and systems outside your network cannot directly communicate with these devices. When a system on the internal network needs to send or receive information from a system outside the network (i.e. from the Internet), the information is sent to the router.

Configuring multiple routers

Your network may have two or more connected routers. During the initial launch of the auto port

Appendix C: Digimerge Auto Port Forward Wizard

• The "Possible 1st Router" refers to the router directly connected to your system. This is the router that requires the port forward information.
• The "Possible 2nd Router" refers to the router immediate to the internet connection. This is the router that requires you to configure a DMZ host connection.

Scenario A: Router/Modem combination + Router

- You may have a router/modem combination, with a second router in your network.

Scearnio B: Multiple Routers

- You may have two routers in your network.

Appendix C: Digimerge Auto Port Forward Wizard

Configuring a DMZ host connection

• Connect to "Router 1" on your network [referred to as "Possible 1st Router" in the Auto Port Forwarding Wizard]. Obtain the IP address of Router 1. Usually this can be found in the "Status" section of your router menu. The IP should begin with "192.168...." This IP address is your DMZ IP.
• Enter the IP address obtained from Router 1 into the DMZ section of Router 2.
• Once you have configured Router 2 with a DMZ connection, run the Auto Port Forwarding Wizard to begin auto port forwarding to Router 1.
• Consult your router's owner's manual for details on configuring DMZ settings.

Example

DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone. Enabling a DMZ IP on your router enables one of the routers to pass information onto the second router.

DMZ Host IP Address: 192.168.1. 100 Apply Cancel DMZ IP address assigned by a secondary router
