The QT View software allows you to remotely monitor your QT-series DVR (see list below)
using your mobile device and either a wireless or 3G/4G network. In addition to controlling
your system, you will be able to alter its settings and review video records saved on its hard
drive.
In order to monitor your system using your iPhone or iPad, you will need to install either the
Q-See QT View app for smartphones or Q-See QT View HD app if you’re using a tablet.
These are available for free through iTunes by searching for “Q-See.” Install either one as you
would any other application on your device.
Operation of both versions is largely the same with the major exception being that the HD
version for the iPad differs in that you can view up to nine cameras simultaneously rather
than just four, plus the viewing resolution is greater to take advantage of the tablet’s higher
resolution screen. Screen shots from both will be shown when there are differences, but
otherwise, most images will be from the iPad version.

To launch QT View, simply tap on its icon in the app menu on your device.
Upon start-up, the QT View program will require you to log in. The first time you will need to
enter the address of your DVR.
You will need to create at least two connections to access your DVR. These are selected
through the Login screen and can be created through this screen. They may also created in
the Server list as described later.
One connection is for use when you are accessing a wireless network connected to the same
network as your DVR while another would be used when connecting from outside the area.
Depending on your data plan (and whether your device has 3G/4G connectivity) you may find
it necessary to take steps to ensure that you are connected wirelessly rather than through
cellular to avoid data charges as data usage will be equivalent to that for streaming a video.
Another reason for creating multiple Server connections is if you have more than one QT-series
DVR that you wish to monitor remotely. Full information on obtaining these addresses can
be found in the Remote Monitoring Guide but instructions for utilizing these addresses
appears on the following pages.
