CCTV, View, Record, Play

Hello,

I bought a CCTV system, XN8P NVR and Starlight Dome cameras.

Once I set it up, it has been working fine.

I then had to ask the suppliers for a User Manual and it took them a very long time to supply me with one, months.

I can Login and out of the NVR, and watch the Recording whilst in operation, but the User Manual is not detailed enough for me to use the various viewing methods as shown in (6.1 Using Search Function), please see as attached.

They have now told me they will update their User Manual and send me a copy.

In the meantime can anyone advice me please?.

Thank you.

    So what's the problem?  What are you trying to do?

    That what you've linked to is searching for footage by date or by time.

    1 Seems to be a filter of some sort, 2 is search by date, 3 is how to search (your screenshot isn't very clear), 4 is the channels/video cameras and 5 is the playback/mode options so slow motion, fast forward, rewind, etc.

    The user manual is on their website, not sure why you waited months for one when you could have just clicked and downloaded?

    As per above comment, what specifically are you having trouble with because the manual looks very detailed?
