continues recording video from those cameras. Click the Activate button and specify the cameras to
be viewed by default.
[Startup]

of each channel by shifting the frame rate of disabled video ports to enabled ones. This function
will take effect at next system startup.

Audio: Select an audio channel to be configured. Clicking the finger button can apply the settings
of one audio channel to the rest of channels.
Gain Control: Increases or decreases the gain of the microphone.
Wave Out: Listens to the audio around the camera.
Rec Audio: Activates the audio recording.

indicated.
