CAUTION: Set Unused Cameras Off
When a DVR is installed with less than the full complement of cameras
connected, disable unused camera input settings to prevent the DVR from
generating Video Loss (VLoss) events for those camera inputs. In the DVR
Configuration menus, disable unused camera inputs as follows:
• Record Settings menu: Camera Speed OFF,
Camera Audio OFF (to save disk space)
• Alarms/Signals menu: Channel Speed OFF.
