Operation

The VIA!4.0 is designed to be simple and intuitive to operate. Each
source is custom programmed to work just the way the homeowner
desires. This unit is a true touch screen controller; no hard buttons
or stylus required! Use a finger (or fingernail) to lightly press on the
screen each time an action is required.
Timeout
VIA!TOOLS provides separate Timeouts for Source page, Off page,
Lights page, Video, and Cameras. Each of these values should be
set with the homeowner's lifestyle in mind.
Video Mode
When in Camera Mode, the VIA!4.0 utilizes hidden buttons on the
display that allow for NEXT, PREVIOUS, SCAN ON, SCAN OFF func-
tionality. A fifth button, EXIT FROM VIDEO MODE, is also present.
These buttons are Autobuilt in VIA!TOOLS and will allow the home-
owner to display a specific camera or all cameras, as desired. See
VIA!TOOLS Help file for more specifics.
Video Overlays
Overlays are special pages built in VIA!TOOLS to control video
sources while still viewing the video on the VIA! Each of these over-
lays is custom built and assigned in programming. See VIA!TOOLS
Help file for more specifics.
Cleaning
To clean the VIA!4.0's screen, first use a soft dry cloth to remove
contamination. If dirt is still present, use a damp cloth that has been
squeezed of excess water. If dirt is still present, then use a non-abra-
sive cleaner or detergent to clean the screen. Use of strong
chemicals and/or some cleaning agents may discolor the polyester
film that makes up the touch screen.
