User Interface

You can change the way the Management Application behaves. For example, by default, the
Management Application asks you to confirm many of your actions. If you feel this is not necessary,
you can change the behavior of the Management Application to not ask you again. Go to User
Interface
to make changes for each action.

Examples of actions you can change:

o

When you attempt to delete a hardware device, should the Management Application ask
you to confirm that you want to delete the hardware device, or should it delete the
hardware device straight away without asking?

o

Depending on the system you are using, you may have a limit on the number of cameras
you can use in your system. Select if the system should warn you if you add more cameras
than the allowed number of cameras.

o

If your system should show live video when you preview camera or if you would rather see
a snapshot or no preview of the camera.

Click Restore Default Settings below the behavior list to restore your system to its default behavior.

Default File Paths

Your system uses a number of default file paths:

File paths

Description

Default recording path for new
cameras

All new cameras you add use this path by default for storing
recordings. If required, you can change individual cameras'
recording paths as part of their individual configuration (see
"Recording and archiving paths" on page 92), but you can also
change the default recording path so all new cameras you add use
a path of your choice.

Default archiving path for new
cameras

All new cameras you add use this path by default for archiving (see
"About archiving" on page 126). If required, you can change
individual cameras' archiving paths as part of their individual
configuration, but you can also change the default recording path so
all new cameras you add use a path of your choice. Note that
camera-specific archiving paths are not relevant if you use dynamic
path selection (see "Dynamic path selection (properties)" on page
73) for archiving.

Configuration path

The path by default used for storing your system configuration.
