Viewing camera feed
When you click on the camera name, the entire screen is occupied by a video player window for viewing the live feed. Archive viewing is also provided.
When viewing the live feed, please note that the camera may have been added in a different time zone, so the system time indicated on the camera and the timeline time may differ. For more information, see the «UTC Standard» section.
The video player window functions are described in the «Viewing video in the player» section.
To organize a video wall for viewing streams from multiple cameras simultaneously, you should configure camera layouts.
Camera search
Camera search in the camera list is done by name.
To use the search, click the search icon and enter a minimum of three characters.
As a result, the camera list will only contain cameras whose names satisfy the specified condition.

Setting up a camera schedule
The function is available only if the current user is allowed to change the schedule settings of the selected camera in the administrator web interface.

To set up a schedule, follow these steps:
