What are You Able to Do with the Remote Client?
With the Remote Client, you are able to:
• View live video from cameras on the surveillance system.
• Browse recordings from cameras on the surveillance system.
• Create and switch between an unlimited number of views, each able to display video from
up to 16 cameras from multiple servers at a time*. Views can placed in private groups
(only accessible by the user who created them) or shared groups (accessible by all Remote
Client users connected to the surveillance system).
* Depending on Milestone XProtect surveillance system used
• Control PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) and fisheye (360° view) cameras.
• Activate external outputs.
• Get quick overviews of sequences with detected motion.
• Print images.
• Generate and export evidence in AVI (movie clip) and JPEG (still image) formats.
• View HTML pages and static images.
How Can User Rights Affect Your Use of the Remote
Client?
The rights of individual remote users are specified centrally by the surveillance system
administrator. The rights of an individual user will determine the user’s ability to use the Remote
Client’s features.
Basically, the surveillance system administrator is able to restrict a user’s rights to the following:
• Access to the Remote Client
• Access to each of the Remote Client’s tabs: Live, Browse and Setup
• Ability to use features on the Remote Client’s tabs
• Ability to create views (views determine the way in which video from one or more cameras
is displayed)
• Ability to view video from specific cameras
The ability to use various features of the Remote Client may therefore vary considerably from user
to user. Ask your surveillance system administrator if in doubt about your user rights.
