Video output
The recorder automatically checks the monitor outputs used. If more than one
monitor is connected, it then defines which monitor is the main one and which is
the event one. The event monitor is used to display detected events such as
motion. Only one monitor can be controlled at a time.
If a HDMI monitor is used, it will be the main output. If HDMI and VGA monitors
are both connected to the recorder, both will be main monitors; they will both
show the same view. However, you will not be able to control each individually.
See “Controlling live view” on page 66 for more information on setting up the
monitors.
Controlling live view
Many features of live view can be quickly accessed by placing the cursor on a
live image and clicking the right-button of the mouse. The mouse menu appears
(see Figure 14 below).

The list of commands available depends on which monitor is active; main or
auxiliary (monitor B). See Table 8 on page 67. The default settings of these
commands are provided in Appendix G, “Default menu settings” on page 143.
