Chapter 5: Live view
TruVision DVR 12HD User Manual 31
The system status is displayed on the front panel by the status LEDs.
Video output
The recorder automatically checks the monitor outputs used on startup. If more than
one monitor is connected, it then defines which monitor is the main monitor and which
is the event monitor. The event monitor is used to display detected events such as
motion. Only one monitor can be controlled at a time.
If a HDMI monitor is used, it will be the main output. If HDMI and VGA monitors are
both connected to the recorder, both will be main monitors; they will both show the
same view.
See “Controlling live view” on page 31 for more information on setting up the monitors.
Monitor A is the main monitor. When an alarm or motion is detected, the camera with
the alarm/motion event is displayed on monitor B. When there are multiple alarm or
motion events, the camera images are sequenced on monitor B.
Live view mouse menu
Many features of live view can be quickly accessed by placing the cursor on a live
image and clicking the right-button of the mouse. The mouse menu appears (see
Figure 14 below).

The list of commands available depends on which monitor is active; main or auxiliary
(monitor B). See Table 6 on page 32. The default settings of these commands are
provided in the appendix under “Default menu settings” on page 154.
