 √ means the interface is in use, × means the interface is out of use or the connection is invalid. And the
HDMI, VGA and CVBScan be used at the same time.
When the aux output is enabled, the main output can't do any operation, and you can do some basic operation on
the live view mode for the Aux output.
Note: For DS-7600NI-ST/SP, there is only one audio output, the VGA output has a higher priority over CVBS
output. When you enable the audio in both the CVBS and VGA audio output, the audio from the audio out
interface is for VGA.
