CONNECTING A SPOT-OUT MONITOR

Spot Out

Use the Spot port on the rear panel of the system to connect a Spot
Out Monitor (not included). Spot Out displays the camera channels
in sequence. You can change the dwell time for the time interval in
the Interval menu. This is useful for a monitor in public view: you can
make people aware that they are being watched. You can also use
the spot-out monitor to display announcements or advertising.

CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL MONITOR

Use the Monitor port on the rear panel of the system to connect
an external monitor. Monitor-out mirrors the entire screen image of
your system. This is useful if you need to monitor the system from a
second location (e.g. a back office).

This feature is used for situations in which you want to have the
system in a back room while still displaying images to the public
eye, for deterrence or advertising purposes.
