EVENTS TOOLBAR
Events that can be played back are identified if the associated video column (P) shows a “Y”
Click on the line corresponding to the Event to be played back. An asterisk will be displayed in the left column. You will now be
able to play back by clicking the Show Event button,
Alternatively you can export the event to the Hard Disk Drive of your PC by clicking the Export Event button (see section 6).
If “N” is showing there was no video recorded with the event. This may occur if the disk has overwritten the video due to the
chosen record capacity or the event is not video related.
TELEMETRY FUNCTIONS
To access the Telemetry controls from the viewer application, the following conditions must be met:
• The viewer application must be connected (via Ethernet) to a Vivid DVR capable of interpreting the PTZ commands.
• The Vivid DVR unit must be connected to a PTZ controller.
• The cameras must be capable of performing PTZ.
• The viewer must establish a live connection, and must be in Live view mode.
To activate telemetry:
• Select a telemetry enabled camera in single camera view, or click a telemetry enabled camera’s image in Quad view. If the
camera is suitable for control via telemetry, the border surrounding its image will turn to green.
• Click the Telemetry On/Off button
. The telemetry toolbar will become active.
Most telemetry functions are self-explanatory (such as zoom in, zoom out, open iris, close iris, etc. and sufficient detail is
provided under the toolbars - Audio and Telemetry toolbar section). Other functions are described below.
1. Joystick
Clicking the Joystick button will open the joystick pop-up window.
The joystick window can be repositioned anywhere within the viewer’s workspace by clicking and dragging it.
Click and drag the green circle with the mouse to pan and tilt the camera. If the camera has proportional speed control, the
further away from the centre position the green circle is moved, the faster the camera will move in that direction. The camera
will be moved as long as the mouse button is held down. Release the mouse button to immediately stop pan/tilt.
The keyboard’s arrow keys can also be used to pan and tilt the camera and provide movement at 1/2 of the maximum joystick
speed.
