34 C695M-B (11/03) Multiple Screen Viewing For multiple screen viewing, the DX3100 groups channels into specific sets for each screen format: 1x1, 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4.
C695M-B (11/03) 35 When using the IR remote controller , you must step through screen sets in a linear fashion: full-screen channels followed by the 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4 sets (refer to Figure 22). Press the + button to advance through the channel sets (1x1, 2x2, 3x3, 4x4).
36 C695M-B (11/03) PLA YBACK MODE Use PLA YBACK mode to view recorded video for a specific channel. NOTE: In PLA YBACK mode, recorded video can only be displayed full-screen.
C695M-B (11/03) 37 ST ARTING PLA YBACK MODE Enter PLA YBACK mode from LIVE VIEW mode by pressing the PLA YBACK button. A sample of the opening on-screen overlay is shown in Figure 23. Figure 23. Opening Playback Overlay The DX3100 always defaults to channel 1 when you first enter PLA YBACK mode.
38 C695M-B (11/03) ACCESSING RECORDED VIDEO When you enter PLA YBACK mode for the first time, the unit automatically advances to the end of the last complete time file for channel 1 (refer to Figure 24). Figure 24. Playback Mode Entry Time Files To view previously recorded video for a channel, you must “rewind” to the desired time file: 1.
C695M-B (11/03) 39 SWITCHING CHANNELS When you re-enter PLA YBACK mode, the unit automatically displays recorded video for channel 1. The unit automatically returns t o the timeframe that was last accessed for channel 1. To view video from a different channel, press the button for the desired channel.
40 C695M-B (11/03) SEARCHING FOR SPECIFIC VIDEO In addition to switching to a different channel, you can switch to video at an earlier or a later point in time.
C695M-B (11/03) 41 SEARCHING OPEN TIME FILES Y ou can only search for video within closed time files. For example, if it is 10:40 a.m., you can search all files with video prior to 10:00 a.m. However , you can close an open time file and then play it back.
42 C695M-B (11/03) SEARCHING VIDEO DURING CHANGE TO DA YLIGHT SAVING TIME Y ou must perform a special file search to view time files created during the switch to daylight saving time in the fall of the year . The unit creates two time files, both marked with the same start and stop times.
C695M-B (11/03) 43 MPEG STRUCTURE AND FRAME OPERA TIONS There is a difference between the displayed time index during step-forward and step-backward operations. This results from the compression techniques used in MPEG. When video is recorded, the DX3100 does not store every piece of information contained in each video frame.
44 C695M-B (11/03) SA VING IMAGES TO FLOPPY DISKETTE The FDD function saves the currently displayed video image to a floppy diskette. Y ou must be in PLA YBACK mode. T o save the image, perform the following: 1. Insert a formatted floppy diskette into the diskette drive.
