Question:

How do I change the menu output on a DVR/NVR via web interface?

  • changing the menu output gives you mouse control on the output (monitor) you select


Answer:

  1. Log into the web interface of the NVR/DVR (type the IP address of the unit into a web browser)
  2. Go to Configuration > System > System Settings > Menu Output
  3. Change the 'Menu Output' to the output you want mouse control on (ex: HDMI, VGA, Auto)
    1. If you leave the menu output on 'Auto', it would be up to the recorder to detect what output you are using and give it mouse control.
