Spot Monitor for IP Cameras on Camius 16 and 32 Channel NVR

Camius NVR recorders with 16 and 32 channels have a feature that enables a spot monitor for IP cameras through their dual HDMI video outputs. A spot monitor function can display a live video feed of one or more security cameras on a secondary TV monitor that is continuously linked to an NVR network video recorder. This feature does not disrupt the live IP camera display on the spot monitor if you use the recorder’s main monitor to access the menu system, for instance. The HDMI2 video output is configurable for the spot-out monitor.
