On the Live View page of the NVR-E6480’s management interface, whenever you want to look
back to check suspicious events of a camera channel you just missed, just hit the ‘Instant
Playback’ button to bring up the window to review recent feeds. While you don’t have to switch
to the Playback page to do so, you can still have full live views of other channels
simultaneously.
Dual Stream Management

The NVR provides dual stream management in live view and recording functions. User is able
to monitor or record stream 1 or stream 2 of dual stream devices. This design is able to reduce
the CPU and memory loading of the NVR that handles a large number of channels.

Location Management with eMap

The eMap function helps visualize the layout of IP cameras in the surveillance network
enabling you to quickly identify the location of each IP camera, especially when an alarm
occurs. Just upload the pictures of the monitoring locations, and drag and drop the IP camera
icons to the right place on the eMap. Once an alarm event happens, the camera icons will
flash to indicate the event type for you to be alerted immediately and take necessary actions.
Remote Access via Mobile App, Web Browser or CMS

The NVR-E6480 provides central surveillance management capability with the adoption of its
bundled Central Management Software (CMS). With the CMS, the NVR system is expandable
for multi-sites management of up to 64 surveillance channels simultaneously. Besides, users
are able to monitor the NVR via mobile app viewer or the Web browser anytime, anywhere.

Live View is the interface where you see the live views from your cameras. It is where most of
the security professionals access the surveillance system. Aside from keeping an eye on the
video, you may also cycle through View layouts, drag and drop various cameras to the screen,
review a log of events, take snapshots, control PTZ cameras, start or stop recording on a
given channel, trigger Digital output and broadcast or talk to specific cameras. In this section,
you will be given instructions on the said fundamental operations. To start, click Live View tab
to enter live view screen.

31
NVR-E6480
5.1 Select a View

In the NVR-E6480 system, a View refers to the layout where the live images of a few cameras
are arranged in proper positions to suit the monitoring purpose. This is very similar to a
Camera Group, which consists of cameras in the same physical location or with the same
camera functions. For example, a View named First Floor may contain the cameras that are
actually placed in the secured area on the first floor. Once created, each camera view is
assigned to a certain channel on the layout style selected by creator.
Based on your User Group permissions, you may or may not own the privilege
1. To create, edit or delete a Public View or a Private View
2. To assign a specific View as default View
3. To see all the cameras included in a Public View. Therefore, you may find
certain view edit functions not available on the View Tool Bar.
