1. CAMERA ACCESS

You can create up to 32 groups of cameras and then decide on which monitors the cameras can be viewed and/or which operators
can control cameras with PTZ functions.

1.1. CAMERA ACCESS FOR VIEWING (C/M GROUP)

This feature allows you to create up to 32 groups of cameras and then to assign the groups of cameras to specific monitors for
viewing.

Here is an example of how this feature might be used in an installation:
Cameras 1, 2, 7, 8, and 9 are cameras that the supervisor uses to watch security guards. These cameras cannot be viewed by the

guards on the monitors in the security room but can be viewed on the supervisor’s monitor in his office.
To program camera viewing access:

1. Define the groups of cameras by entering a group number from 1-32 in the C/M Group field for each camera. Each camera can
be assigned to only one group.

C/M Group number identifies the
access group that each camera has
been assigned to.

In this example:
Cameras 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 = group 1

Cameras 3-6 = group 2
Cameras 10-13 = no group

Groups 1 and 2 can now be assigned
to the monitors on which the cameras
can be viewed (refer to step 2).

Cameras that are not assigned to a
group (0 in C/M Group field) will be
visible on all monitors.

The C/M Group number is entered in
this box.

2. Define which camera groups can be viewed on each monitor by entering the group number(s) in the Group Access field.

Group Access identifies the camera groups
that can be viewed on each monitor.

In this example:

Monitors 1-3 can view cameras that have
been assigned to group 1 and any cam­eras that have not been assigned to a spe­cific group (0 in C/M Group field in step 1).
These monitors cannot view cameras from
any other group; that is, groups 2-32.

Monitors 4-9 can view cameras that have
been assigned to groups 1 and 2 and any
cameras that have not been assigned to a
specific group (0 in C/M Group field in step

1). These monitors cannot view cameras
from any other group; that is, groups 3-32.

Monitors 10-13 can view cameras that
have not been assigned to a specific
group (0 in C/M Group field in step 1).
These monitors cannot view cameras
from any group; that is, 1-32.

To select groups, click the Grp Acc but­ton. The Group Access Table appears.
Click the box in front of the group number
to toggle the X on or off. An X in the box
grants access; no X denies access.

Monitors 14-16 have been given access
to all 32 groups. Therefore, they can view
any camera that has been assigned to a
group (1-32) as well as any camera that
has not been assigned to a group (0 in C/
M Group field in step 1).
