Access control
Events: Events are logged with a time stamp, event type, the associated door or access
control unit, and cardholder name if available.
When you select an event, the preview on the right lets you view the related video sequence
for the event. The preview camera title bar shows the camera related to the unit that triggered
the event. If you have multiple cameras associated with a door, they all appear in the preview.
Standard playback options are available from the toolbar. Related cardholder information
appears below the video preview together with details about the selected event. Click
to
view live video or play back recorded video in a floating window.
Doors: Lists the doors, access points and other access control units in each access control
system, and their current state. When you select a door, the associated camera shows live
video on the right-hand side of the screen together with detailed information.
If you have multiple cameras associated with a door, they all appear in the preview. Standard
independent playback options are available from the toolbar. Action buttons allow you to
perform certain commands related to that door, for example lock/unlock door. Available
commands depend on your system configuration.
Information related to the selected door appears below the live video preview. Click
to view
live video or play back recorded video in a floating window.
