Selecting Cameras for Viewing
About the Camera Selection Area
The Camera Selection Area is used to display thumbnails of all the camera servers. You
can select another set of thumbnails of currently-available cameras via the Location and
Zone drop-down menus.
● The Location drop-down menu lists the physical locations of cameras on the system.
● The Zone drop-down menu lists the groups of areas within each location.
When you select a location, its associated zones will be listed below.
About Camera Thumbnails
When a Location is selected, the thumbnail images of the Camera Servers registered in
that Location will appear. Depending on the number of cameras in the selected Location,
a scrollbar at the bottom of the Camera Selection Area can be used to scroll the display
of thumbnails.
Thumbnail images can be dragged onto the Viewing Area to create Video Windows.
