RECOMMENDED TIPS

STAND WITH CABLE MANAGEMENT SOLUTION FOR TIDIER INSTALLATION

Device Connections:

An add-on cable hook is included with your system to easily organize and conceal wiring. Connect the Power Cable, Cameras, Ethernet Cable and any other optional cables to the System by running the cables through the cable hook before connecting to the Observation System.

WALL MOUNTABLE VESA STANDARD

Your system can be mounted on a wall using a VESA standard mounting bracket (not included). Simply unscrew the 4 screws to remove the stand.

LOREX MESSAGE MASTER DID SOFTWARE SENDS TEXT AND PICTURES FROM A REMOTE LOCATION

The Message Master Digital Information Display (DID) (included on the software CD) allows you to show digital images and text on your system. You can customize the text and images for advertising your business, or as a screen saver.

Note: Prior to using the DID Client, make sure you have enabled Lorex DDNS on your system.

STORAGE CALCULATOR

The Storage Calculator application is used to calculate the amount of recording time available on your Hard Drive, based on the System Recording Settings. This application is located on the Software Installation CD (provided with your system).

Enter your speciﬁc settings and press the CALCULATE button. The Software will calculate the estimated* recording time (circled below).

TO USE THE STORAGE CALCULATOR:

1. Double-click Storage Calc.exe.

2. Under Camera, click the NTSC or PAL radio buttons.

3. Depending on your system, click the 4 CH, 8 CH, or 16 CH radio buttons.

system.

Note: If your hard drive size is not listed, click the radio button below the drop

down menu and enter your hard drive size manually.

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.
