General
Startup and Exit
Secure Desktop: Disable the use of Windows hot keys and removes the Windows
Taskbar, among other items, from the user desktop.
Shutdown Windows on Exit: If checked, Windows will shutdown the system when the
Server application is exited by a user.
Auto-Login to Windows and Start Server: Configure this option to have Windows
automatically login and launch the Server application in case of a reboot or unplanned
power outage.
Display Login Window When Starting Up: When checked, the Server will prompt the user
to login; otherwise use Setup User to configure the Server to launch, run as that user
and then lock itself.
Auto Restart Computer: Use this feature to schedule a self-reboot for maintenance.
Auto Start Schedule: If checked, on startup the Server will automatically activate the
automated Recording and Alarm Detection Schedules as defined in Cameras and
Sensors.
Alarm
Alarm Output Duration: Configure how long each Alarm event will last once triggered.
This effects how long Audible Alarms are heard and how long Relays are tripped. Note
that this value does not control length of recording in any way.
Audible Alarm: Configure an audible alarm to be heard through the system's PC
speakers. Use the file chooser on the right to choose a *.wav file to sound the alarm.
Post-Alarm Record: Configure how long to record video when an Alarm results in
recording. The recording time starts from the time the Alarm is triggered. Note that this
value is normally greater-than or equal to the Alarm Output Duration.
Pre-Record: Configure how many seconds prior to the Alarm Event the system should
attempt to include in Alarm based recordings. The maximum is 15 seconds, but this is
not always possible, depending on how much video is actually available in the system's
memory buffers.
Miscellaneous Options
Default Instant Replay Time: Set the number of seconds for Instant Replay in the
Playback function.
Auto Live View Off: Check this box to have the lock user interface and disable the local
Live View screen after
n
minutes of inactivity. Doing so ensures that Server resources
are dedicated to servicing remote users and recording needs when no one is using the
Server interface directly.
On Screen PTZ Operation: If checked, you can use the mouse to control PTZ camera
movement on and PTZ enabled camera that you want on the Main GUI, instead of using
the PTZ rosette.
Show Viewer on Snapshot: If checked, the Snapshot Viewer will appear when you use
the Snapshot viewer, to show you the snapshot you just took.
