tree will display all image servers that the Operator can access, this information will be provided either by using
an existing sitetree created with previous versions of NetVu ObserVer or by manually adding (and confi guring)
image servers to the tree.
As detailed an existing sitetree can be accessed via the ‘Choose Root Folder’ option in Tools -> Options ->
Behaviour menu.
