Play back video locally to a TV using an ADC-CSVR2000P/2008P/2016P

The ADC-CSVR2000P/2008P/2016P can play back live and recorded video locally to one or two monitors using its HDMI outputs. The ADC-CSVR2000P/2008P/2016P can output the video of all of the cameras associated to it.

To connect the ADC-CSVR2000P/2008P/2016P to a monitor:

Connect external monitors/TVs

Attach up to two monitors/TVs to the device using the HDMI ports. The outputs are mirrored, so the same interface is shown on two screens.

Note: When connecting the CSVR to multiple displays, it is recommended to use the same resolution on both attached displays.

Connect a keyboard and mouse to navigate the user interface

Use the two rear USB 2.0 ports to connect a keyboard and mouse. The front USB 3.0 port is recommended to be reserved for connecting external storage devices.
