1.6 Monitor images from multiple cameras
Images from multiple cameras can be displayed on a multi-screen. Images from 4 cameras (up to 16 cameras) can be displayed simultaneously. To display images on a multi-screen, it is necessary to register cameras in advance. 4 cameras can be registered as a group and up to 4 groups (16 cameras) can be registered. (→Section 12 Configure the multi-screen settings [Multi-screen])
IMPORTANT
When displaying images on a 16-screen, panning, tilting and zooming operations become unavailable for images from cameras with Pan/Tilt/Zoom functions.
When the “Image capture mode” type is “2 Monitor” or “Quad stream”, fisheye images are displayed.(→11.2 Configure the settings relating to JPEG images [JPEG/H.264])
When “On(NTSC)” or “On(PAL)” is selected for “Monitor out”, images are not displayed.
When the power is turned off or the LAN cable is disconnected while displaying images, displaying images on a multi-screen from the “Live” page will become unavailable.
