In
Chapter 2, Getting Started
, you learned about the basic features of MxEasy. Note, however,
that MxEasy allows you to do much more than simply play back video sequences. In this
chapter, we will familiarize you with the advanced features of this software.
The easiest way to take snapshots is to click the button. If you do so, the image
from the camera displayed in the main window will be saved immediately. This works for
both live images and event images. The fi le name of a fi le saved as *.jpg contains the name
of the camera followed by the date and time of the recording (for example, mxcam 2008-
11-24 15-05-13
for a fi le saved on November 24, 2008 at 3:05 PM and 13 seconds).
Note: You can specify a target folder for the saved images by choosing the menu
command in the section ().
You can print a camera image in MxEasy using the Print button. When you click this but-
ton, the print preview will show either the live image of all cameras connected to MxEasy
if the Live view (Player) is active or the most recent event image if the Event view is active.
You can still adjust the layout, zoom factor and number of images per page.
Select the button in the Event view to export recorded video sequences
from MxEasy.
Proceed as follows to specify event sequences for export:
1. Select the earliest time of the sequence you want to export. You can do so by moving
the blue triangle on the left or entering a time in the Date/Time fi eld (for example,
using the arrow keys) and then clicking the button.
2. Select the end time of the sequence you want to export. You can do so by moving
the blue triangle on the right or entering a time in the Date/Time fi eld (for example,
using the arrow keys) and then clicking the button.
