Higher refresh rates can alleviate eye fatigue when monitoring video over time. You can
change the Refresh Frequency, and the refresh rate (Hertz), as needed. Not all monitors
and video cards support the resolutions indicated in the preceding sections, nor do all offer
various refresh rates. Consult the documentation supplied with Microsoft Windows, your
monitor, and the video card.
Two monitors can be effectively used with Multi-Media View to display more camera feeds
at once. To set up a Dual View system, see your Microsoft documentation. Hardware note:
a second video card is needed on the View operator's PC for Microsoft's Dual View setup.
