Field Description

Display Camera

Number

If you chose to display the camera name for live and/or

recorded video, select this option if you want to display the

camera number instead of its name. This is particularly useful if

the name contains non-English characters that are not

displayed properly on the monitor.

Note: This option has no effect if Display Camera Name in

Live Video is not selected.

4. Under Display Color, select the color in which on-screen text should be displayed. You

can choose one of five preset colors, or select any color you wish by specifying its RGB

hexadecimal code, as follows:

• To select one of the preset colors, from the dropdown list, select Yellow, Orange,

Black, Blue, or Red. Skip to step 6.

• To specify a hexadecimal code: from the dropdown list, select Other. The fields

required are added to the screen. The hexadecimal code field displays the

hexadecimal code of the currently selected color. The code consists of three two-

digit hexadecimal numbers, for the red, green, and blue components of the color,

respectively. The current color is displayed as the background to the Test Color

button.

Setting the Unit Time

The unit has a built-in battery-backed clock that keeps track of the date and time even when

the unit is turned off. It is important to ensure that the time on the unit is accurate whenever

the system is running; all video recordings include timestamps that are derived from the unit's

time, and playback relies on these timestamps. An inaccurate clock can lead to
