Enable and Disable Alerts

Once you setup your email alerts you can quickly set the alert state

from the main view. This feature is great for enabling email alerts as

you leave for work or on a vacation, and turning them back off once

you get home (no need getting email indicating you’re moving around

your house).
From the main Live View you Enable and Disable Email Alerts by clicking on the camera number – . When

the outer circle is blue, email alerts are disabled. When the outer circle is red, email alerts are enabled. You

can also enable and disable alerts from the Enable Alerts checkbox from the Setup…Email options dialog. (See

Email Options in the Werks Setup chapter for more details.)

Switch Cameras On and Off

At times, you may want to easily turn cameras off. Perhaps you are

having a family party in the backyard and there is no reason to record

all the activity. To turn a camera On and Off, click the On/Off button

below the camera number. When the button reads On – – the

camera is operating normally. When the button reads Off – – the

camera video feed is disabled until you click the button again.

Open the Video Context Menus

Werks provides quick access to common functions through context menus on the Video Windows and Camera

Alerts buttons. To access the context menus simply right-click on the object and choose between the various

commands. Here’s what they look like:

Video Window Context Menu

Camera Alerts Context Menu

Print or Save Live Video Frames

Using the Video Window context menu (right-click on live window), you can choose to print or save the current

image in the window. When choosing Save, Werks will let you choose the location and filename for the image,

which it stores as a JPEG. By default, Werks will choose your My Pictures folder. Werks uses the Windows print

spooler, which automatically adjusts the picture to match your printer’s capabilities. You find these options only

on the Live View context (right-click) menu.

Delete a Camera

From time to time, you may remove a camera from your system. Werks, by default, saves the settings and

position of this camera, expecting that you may add it back to your system later.
There are two methods for permanently deleting a camera. First, you can go to the Setup…Camera dialog box,

and click the DELETE CAMERA button. Second, you can use the Live Windows context (right-click) menu and

choose Delete Camera.
