CHANGE DATE/TIME WINDOW TIMESCALE 
To navigate using the Date/Time Header, left-click and drag your mouse on the header area above the time-
lines. (This is the area with the dates and times.) Drag the time-line left or right and the whole thing moves. 
And you can even keep dragging beyond the limits of the time-line if you want 
to! 
 The top of the Search Navigation window displays dates and times for each 
time division. These divisions can be easily changed to zoom in to specific minutes of a day or zoom out to view 
an entire day. 
Change the time focus by clicking on the timeframe guide to select your focus. A tool tip message informs you 
of the time division you have selected. Notice the position of the focus indicator (blue ball) in these examples: 
4-hour time focus 
30-minute time focus 
1-minute time focus 
5-second time focus 
NAVIGATING WITH RED TIMELINE 
A vertical red time-line shows the current position of playback. To navigate, click and drag on the time-line to 
the left or right until you see the time and date you want to playback. Then release the mouse button. 
Notes: 
•
  You may also click anywhere on the navigation window and the red time-line will go directly to that 
spot. 
•
  Use CTRL f and CTRL g to step forward and back through video segments. See Hot Key Assignments 
for more keyboard controls.

timeline. 
SELECT CAMERAS TO REVIEW 
When playing video segments, you can select one, several, or all cameras for review. By default, all cameras 
are selected. Selecting only a few cameras reduces the volume of video that must be loaded into memory 
before playing clips. This may improve performance on minimally configured machines. Here are a few 
examples: 
All cameras on 
Garage camera off, others on 
Garage camera on, others off 
To turn on or off the video for a camera, click the green icon next to the camera name. 
SEEING VIDEO SEGMENT FILE DETAILS 
Press the Ctrl button or move your mouse over a video segment in the playback navigation window. The 
system will display a tool tip that will name the directory the file is saved to; the filename; and the length of the 
video segment.  The graphic below shows this feature.
