You will then click the playback icon in the top left of the screen; the video screen will load, and then select your DVR. Your cameras will be shown below.

Click the search icon below and your camera streams will load into the designated fields. You can see that cameras in fields 1 and 2 are set to record in motion detection. Where you see yellow is the times when motion was detected and that camera has recorded. The camera in field 3 is recording 24/7 but signals motion detection where you see yellow marks. The camera in field 4 is set for basic 24 hour recording. To view your cameras, simply click on the timeline to view that time’s recording. For the cameras recording in motion detection, you must select an area highlighted in yellow. To see the yellow areas more clearly, you can scroll through the timeline to zoom in and select the recorded times more easily. If your cameras have audio, you can adjust the volume here, or mute by clicking the speaker icon. You can speed up the frame rate using this table and well as pause or stop playback.
