4  Camera Management 
4.1   Camera Signal 
Click StartSettingsCameraManage CameraCamera  Signal  to go to the interface as 
shown below. 
Some models may support analog  signal  switching to IP  signal,  which means decreasing (or 
increasing) the number of analog channels, accordingly increasing (or decreasing) the number 
of IP channels with the total channels unchanged. 
The DVR device supports hybrid access of TVI, AHD, CVI and CVBS high definition cameras. If 
the TVI high definition camera is accessed to the DVR, you should select TVI in the following 
interface to show the camera image normally; if you select AHD, then there will be no image 
or the image has no color. The default selection of the camera signal is Auto. If you select Auto, 
the image of the camera will be shown normally regardless of the camera type. 
Note: You can enable “Lite” in the interface if the DVR supports “Lite” recording. It will lower 
the recording resolution and increase the recording frame rate. Please enable or disable the 
Lite as you wish.
