Example 2: Connect a quad monitor (used as a slave monitor)
A quad monitor supports four camera connections. The screen can display 4 cameras
simultaneously or one camera at a time.
The L154-81 is a four channel DVR that records four channels of video. It also performs the function
of a quad monitor.
If you already have a quad monitor with cameras connected to it, this is the best solution for
connecting your DVR:
1) Connect your camera video output to the video input of the DVR.
2) Then connect your video output from the DVR to the video input of the quad monitor.
Under this setup the quad monitor simply acts as a slave monitor and the on screen display of the
DVR will appear on the monitor.
Example 1: Connect a Quad monitor with (looping) video outputs
In this example the quad monitor has individual (looping) video outputs for each channel.
3) FAQ: How do I maintain the camera input to the quad monitor and connect the L154-81 to
the monitor?
There are two different ways to connect the monitor to the DVR. Setup instructions for two different
types of monitors are provided:
•Quad monitor with (looping) video outputs
•Quad monitor without (looping) video outputs
1) Connect the video output* from channel 1 of the monitor to channel 1 video input of the
DVR.

also support video output. The
BNC video input/output on a
Lorex quad monitor can be
connected to BNC video input of
the DVR.
To display the recorded video from the DVR on the monitor
1) Connect the video output from the DVR to the video input of the monitor (there should
be a selector switch on the quad monitor that indicates VCR).

A quad monitor without looping video outputs for each channel should have a video output
labeled VCR out

1) Connect the VCR output (video output) from the quad monitor to channel 1 video input on
the DVR.
