Unable to Change Views on Monitor

Post by DCRich203 »

I have spoken to an Amcrest rep twice, for over 35 minutes each and they were not able to help me. I have my 16 channel DVR setup but am only using seven cameras (seven channels). The DVR is connected to the internet and i have a monitor plugged in via HDMI. I am not able to change the display on my monitor. It keeps scrolling through all 16 channels and shows random views (ie, single camera's to multiple, etc). I have looked and looked under display settings and have tried to set the display up differently but it still continues the same views on my monitor. There has to be a simple solution to this but i am unable to figure it out. Can anyone please help??

Hi DCRich203,

Can you tell me the model number of your DVR and are you able to access menu from the monitor you plugged in ?

Melvin, sorry for the delayed response. I have Model# AMDV108118-S4. I am indeed able to access the menu on the monitor utilizing the mouse plugged into the DVR. But, no matter what settings i have attempted, it continues to scroll through the same sequence for the cameras.
