VIRTUAL DVR

Virtual DVR is a unique feature of Lorex Client 8.0 that can help you manage multiple DVRs. A
Virtual DVR is not an actual DVR system, but represents a group of many DVRS already listed in
the DVR Indicator window. For each Virtual DVR set, up to 64 DVRs can be added, using one
camera from each DVR. The Virtual DVR behaves in the same manner as real DVR, save for the
warning notifications.
: If you are only using one DVR with Lorex Client 8.0, please skip this section.
