Specifications

You may actually give a camera two names--a long name and a short name. The Name

appears on the screen as a caption above the live video image. The Short name is used when

naming clips on your hard drive and remote server.

Note: Each camera's name and short name must be unique--no other camera may have the

same name or short name as another. The OK button will be unavailable otherwise.

You may assign each camera to one or more Groups by clicking the Select button.

You may type a new name and then Add, or select one or more group names from the

list. Group names are used for access control by the Web server

(See 8.) and to allow you to

configure the motion sensor (See 7.3) to trigger cameras in groups.

You may enable/disable and pause/un-pause entire groups of cameras at once by holding the

Shift key while selecting these commands from a camera window's right-click menu. Each

camera that is a member of any of the target camera's groups will be affected.

You may assign each camera an alert or Event color. This color will be used to mark clips

which belong to this camera when they are represented in a time-line view.

Importing and Exporting Settings

Click the "Export settings..." button to save a camera's configuration to a file. You may wish to

do this as a backup, or when creating a new camera as a copy of another. It may also come in

handy to include this file if you need to ask for software support via email.

Click the "Import settings..." button to load the settings from a file previously created with the

"Export settings" function.
