2. XMUX2-16 only: Connect each camera loop-through output î to a monitor, VCR, or other analog device if you want to view live video on
a single, larger screen. Output 1 displays video from input 1, output 2 displays video from input 2, and so forth.
3. Connect the Aux connectors ï to monitors, VCRs, or other analog devices, if desired. The multicamera output (Aux1) displays up to 16
cameras, as configured in DSAdmin. The Aux 2–Aux 4 connectors are single-camera outputs.
