Selecting a monitor
The TVR 20 can be connected to up to three monitors; two main monitors (VGA
and BNC) and one spot monitor (BNC). However, only one monitor can be
controlled at a time. If both VGA and BNC monitors are connected, the VGA
monitor is the default main monitor. Use the "Display settings" on page 89 to set
up the format of the main monitor.
To switch between the main and spot monitors:
On the front panel press the DISPLAY button for a few moments to change from
the main to the spot monitor. Continue to press the DISPLAY button for a few
moments to scroll between the different multiscreen options on the spot monitor.
Press the DISPLAY button quickly to change back to the main monitor.
The monitor status icon will appear on the main monitor screen indicating which
monitor is active.
Monitor A (main) is selected
Switching cameras
You can switch the channel of a camera with that of another camera in the
system. This lets you, for example, have the images of camera 1 appear on
channel 10, and the images of camera 10 appear on channel 1. This feature is
useful when you want to watch the images from specific cameras next to each
other on-screen.
To assign a camera to a different channel using the mouse:
1. In live mode select a camera by clicking its cameo in a multiscreen display.
2. Right-click the mouse or move the cursor to the bottom of the screen. The
Main toolbar appears.
3. Click the Switch Channel icon. The Switch Channel bar appears on-screen.
The channel for the selected camera is highlighted.
4. Click a different channel number for the camera. The switch automatically
occurs.
To assign a camera to a different channel using the front panel:
