The G4-304SD1a Startup Screen Layout
Upon startup, the screen of the G4-304SD1a will display the live video streams from the various
cameras attached to the G4-304SD1a. Users can select and configure how many video channels to be
displayed on the screen for monitoring purposes. The screen also serves as an interface into the menu
system of the G4-304SD1a where users can playback recorded video, and access the configuration
menu to change the device configuration settings.
The screen layout will stay the same regardless of whether an ICD2 is being used, or an LCD monitor
being used along with a Finger Mouse or IR Remote control. This ensures that the user always has a
familiar interface and consistent methodology to interact with the menu system and device functions.
