4.3. BASIC OPERATIONS USING THE CONTROL BAR

After logging into the system, use the supplied mouse to operate the DVR.  A Control Bar will be displayed at 
the bottom of the display by “dragging” the mouse to the bottom screen.  It is recommended to operate the 

Control Bar using the included mouse.  Where applicable, buttons on 

the

 remote  control are indicated in the 

descriptions below. These buttons may have different functions in different menus. The specific functions are 
detailed in each of the following sections.

The following is a brief description for each item in the menu and its specific operations:

• NUMERIC

Select any camera from

 the

 remote control by using the numeric buttons.  Only

 

buttons 1-9 are available 

on the 9 channel DVR; all 16 are available on the 16 channel DVR. Alternatively

 

use the mouse to select 

any of these icons to switch to the full-window display of a particular camera.

MODE

Use the button on 

the

 remote control to toggle live and playback mode. Playback

 

mode is indicated by a 

red box around the camera title of the focus camera (the camera being

 

controlled).  If in a split window 

display, the focus window will first switch to playback mode.  A second press

 

of the button will toggle 

additional windows to playback mode.  Continue to press the MODE button to

 

return to live mode 

(indicated by a green box around the camera title of the focus camera).  Alternatively,
