OPERATION
Once you have selected the device you wish to monitor, you will be able to observe live video
from the camera. You may capture still images from the video by pushing the Snapshot
button.
The Main menu gives you access to all of the functions of QC View. Touching the device's
Return button - whether on screen, or on a keypad - while in one window will return you back
to this menu.
Initially, you will need to turn on your camera's display individually from the Device List. You
can bring up the device list by tapping on its icon on the righ of the screen, or by double-
tapping in an empty video display. Even though a multi-channel display will have more than
one space for video available, the camera can only provide one video stream.
The green surround around your camera's view indicates that it is the "active" channel and any
actions performed using the buttons on the left of the screen will affect that channel.
Real-time Monitor: This window is where you will view the feeds from your cameras.
Play Back: You cannot use this function with a camera.

Alarm Push: This window provides you a check list allowing you to indicate which cameras
will alert you based on motion detection, camera masking, or a local alarm triggered at the
DVR itself. When Alarm Push is activated, you will receive alerts on your mobile device even
when you're not currently in the program. You can click on an alert and it will take you directly
to video playback of the incident that triggered the alert.
Favorites: This feature isn't applicable as there is only one possible channel configuration
from your camera.
Local Files: Snapshots captured from the Real-time Monitor are stored here.
Config: This operation does not work while monitoring stand-alone cameras.
Help: Opens the internal help documentation.
