MONITOR MENU ITEM DESCRIPTION
Brightness Adjusts the brightness/darkness on monitors attached
to the unit. The range of brightness values is 0 to 63.
The default setting is 35.
Saturation Adjusts the color saturation on color monitors. This
value is ignored on monochrome monitors. The range
of saturation values is 0 to 36. The default setting is 25.
Call Monitor Dwell Sets the Call Monitor dwell time, which is the amount
of time elapsed between switching images. Unless an
alarm occurs or you select a specific monitor, the Call
Monitor shows full screen video of all installed
cameras in sequence. You can set the dwell time to a
value in the range of 1 to 255 seconds. The default
value is 3 seconds.
Call Monitor Schedule Sets the Call Monitor camera sequence.
NOTE: The Administrator’s passcode is required to
use Call Monitor Schedule.
To set a sequence, follow these steps:
1. Select a camera number for each of the 24 images
displayed in the sequence.
2. Highlight an entry with the Direction keys.
3. Press the desired Camera to assign a camera to
that location in the sequence.
4. Continue until you have completed your sequence.
A sequence can have up to 24 entries. You can select
fewer than 24 for your sequence and leave the
remaining entries blank.
The sequence can include a specific camera or cameras
multiple times. For example, to view camera 3 more
often, place camera 3 every few images in the
sequence. The sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 3, 7, 8, 9, 3, 10,
11, 12, 3 causes you to view camera 3 every three
images on the Call Monitor.
Text Color Sets the on-screen display text color. You can select one
of 8 different color schemes for text displays. The
default is 2, which displays white text for live video
and yellow text for playback.
