3. In the list, select a camera and drag the camera to the required position in the view.
When you have dragged a camera to a position in the view, the name of the camera will
appear in the selected position. You will not see video from the camera yet, as the Setup
tab is only for configuration, not for viewing video.
Repeat for each camera required in the view.
Tip: If you want to use all of the cameras under an engine, you may simply drag the
required engine to the view; this will automatically place all of the engine’s cameras in the
view, beginning at the selected position. Remember to have sufficient positions available in
the view.
Tip: You can always change the cameras in your view: Either drag the System
Overview section’s Clear link to a position in the view to clear the position, or simply
overwrite a position by dragging a different camera to the position.
4. You are now able to use your view: You may—your user rights permitting—select the view
on the Live tab (see Viewing Live Video on page 28) and on the Browse tab (see Viewing
Recorded Video on page 32).
Tip: In addition to cameras, you are able to add static images and HTML pages to views. See
Further Configuration on page 21.
Creating Views in Shared Groups
To create view in a shared group, you first create a group, then create the required view within the
group.
If you have created views in shared groups before, you may create new views in existing shared
groups, or you may create a new shared group for the view.
Note: Views are created on the Remote Client’s Setup tab. Particular user rights may be required
in order to access the Setup tab and in order to be able to create shared views. When creating a
shared view, bear in mind that depending on their user rights not all users may have access to all
cameras on the surveillance system.
Creating a Shared Group
To create a shared group, do the following on the Setup tab:
1. In the Setup tab’s Views section, select the [Shared] folder, or—if you have created shared
groups before—any folder labeled [Shared].
2. In the Setup tab’s Group Control section, type a name for the group in the Group Name
field, then click the New button.
