      Hello,
      I have around 30 cameras connected in my farm, all the same model. The cameras are working well in Security Monitor Pro and recording are pretty clear. When I review the recordings, I sometimes have trouble in identifying which camera the recording came from. The recording just shows the date and time. Is there some way to make identification easier?

        When you have many cameras looking at an area from different angles it can sometimes be difficult to tell which camera you are viewing or recording. There is a simple solution to this problem - you can add on screen labels so it is easy to identify what you are looking at.

        Edit your camera, then select Labels. Check the box for Text Caption, and add your camera location here. For Example: Backyard south view, Front yard driveway, etc. See this image for reference:
