system congurations are required.
Product Overview
System Requirements
* Recording video over a long period of time will consume large amounts of disk space. Make sure that you have
enough disk space available if you want to use the recording function. You can still complete the installation even if
you have less than the suggested free disk space.
Note: If a Megapixel camera is used with the D-ViewCam application, the minimum system requirement should be
raised to CPU: Intel P-4 3.4GhZ or above with 1GB of memory due to the resources required to process and store
large amounts of image data.
