The Emergency Agent software is a utility that streams video across a Local Area Network to a Client
PC when an alarm is detected on the recorder. The streaming video can be stopped, played forward
and backward, in slow motion or regular speed.
The utility is loaded at startup and placed in the taskbar. It constantly monitors for a signal from the
recorder. When an alarm signal is detected the Emergency Agent Image Viewer window opens and
starts playing the video from the camera associated to the alarm.
