    A new view area is created. For example: View Area 1.
  4. Select the location and size of the new view area.
    You can modify the view area size by dragging the lower-right corner of the selected area.
  5. Set the Aspect ratio to 4:3, 16:9, or 11:9.
  6. Select the appropriate Video stream resolution for the area size.
  7. Click Save.
  8. Do one of the following:
    • If the unit is not yet part of your Security Center system, add it in Config Tool.
