Settings > Diagnostics > Camera Bandwidth > “Run Test” button

 

 

This Diagnostic utility tests powerline bandwidth for each camera. The higher bandwidth means smoother video. Low bandwidth may result in choppy/poor video performance or an inability to connect to the camera.

When you run this test, cameras will be temporarily disabled during test and the archiving of recordings will be paused.

 

To start the camera bandwidth test:

1) Go to Settings > Diagnostics > Camera Bandwidth.

2) Click on “Run Test” button.
