Audio Recorded by Microphones
Note: Audio is not supported by all Milestone surveillance systems; see Surveillance System
Differences on page 100 for more information. Even on systems supporting audio, access to live
audio may be restricted, depending on your user rights. Consult your surveillance system
administrator if in doubt.
If one or more cameras have microphones attached, you
are able to listen to recorded audio from a selected
microphone when browsing recorded video on the Smart
Client's Browse tab.
To listen to recorded audio, select the required microphone
in the Audio section's Microphones list.
To temporarily mute the recorded audio, simply select
Mute.
Tip: You can listen to recorded audio independently of
the views/cameras you are watching. However, the
recorded audio you will hear will match the point in time
you specify through the Browse tab's navigation features.
If the Microphones list displays No microphone hardware,
your computer lacks the hardware required to play audio from the surveillance system; typically
due to your computer not being equipped with an audio card. If the list displays No microphone
sources, your computer is able to play audio, but no microphones attached to cameras are
available.
Why is the Speakers list not available? Some surveillance simply system do not support
two-way audio; see Surveillance System Differences on page 100 for more information. Even on
systems supporting two-way audio, outgoing audio from the Smart Client is not recorded.
Therefore, you are not able to listen to what was transmitted through speakers attached to
cameras, and consequently you cannot select speakers from the list.
Copying Single Images
You are able to copy single still images from selected cameras. Copied images can then be pasted
(as bitmap images) into other applications, such as word processors, e-mail clients, etc.
You can only copy a single image from a single camera at a time.
To copy, do the following:
1. Select the required view.
2. Right-click inside the required camera position; you now get access to a shortcut menu.
3. In the menu, select Copy. You can now paste the image into the required application.
