Adjusting Camera Settings
By Clicking on the camera software settings you can modify
the program preferences as well as the settings for each
camera individually. Once the cameras are functioning additional
tweaking may be necessary to the motion detection settings.
To do so simply select the desired camera from the list to the
left from the settings panel.
From here we can adjust the threshold (Top line)
and the sensitivity (bottom line). Adjusting the
threshold slider to the left takes less motion to
trigger recording. Sliding the sensitivity slider to
the right makes the camera more sensitive to
motion.

Play Back Recorded Images
To review recorded images click the icon.
From there click the search button to display all
recorded image information. Use the calendar to
select the date you’re searching (only bold dates
have recorded information). Single click on one
camera to play in the lower right hand corner. Or
you can select up to 4 cameras and then click the
large playback bar to play videos in time-
synchronized mode. In this mode the controls are
in the bottom left. If you are unsure of what the
icon does hover over it with your curser to display
it’s function. You can also adjust the playback
speed with the slider.

Exporting Recorded Images To Disc
Once you have identified a single camera angle that
you would like to export while in playback mode you
can click the Execute button on the bottom right
below the player. If you wish to have a video be
sure to select the MPG format as shown. If you
would like multiple stills select the jpg format.
You will then be prompted for the info on the next
page.

Here you can specify the time frame to export.
Notice that it is also giving me the camera name
to reference.
Click ok once you have the desired information.
Next you will choose a save destination.
The easiest place to save is the desktop, this
keeps you from hunting down file locations.
Next in the file name field specify a title for the
exported event.
Click save
