Using Multiview

From the Monitor suite click on the <Multiview> icon on the left side of the screen. Scroll down to the desired room in the Rooms management pane. If there are a large number of rooms use the search feature to find the desired room.

Click the desired room to display all associated screens for that room. As an example in this manual we are going to click UserGuide example. Note the area around the word UserGuide example turns blue as a reminder that is the room being displayed. Under each room name the number of configured screens is displayed. UserGuide example has two screens: UserGuide and Testscreen. For the moment ignore Add screen that will be discussed later.

Displaying a screen

Hover over the desired screen - in this case we are selecting the one called UserGuide - and left click on the <eyeball> icon. This opens the screen in a new tab on your browser.

Multiview thumbnails

The room can be configured to display multiple channel thumbnails. This is a low resolution image along with any fault status.

At the left is the channel logo (if configured) and channel name. If there are any faults they are identified in red.

Click <Inspect> at the top of the video thumbnail to open the quarantine player. The quarantine player supports most of the same features as the regular viewer except the player is always in live mode.

Using the quarantine player to create a bookmark

To create a bookmark in one of the room screens the screen must be configured with the Quarantine Player.

Click <Inspect> on the desired video thumbnail to open the player. Creating bookmarks with the Quarantine Player is similar to using the player in other MIS sections. Mark the start and end time to create a new bookmark. This automatically creates a new bookmark in the bookmark section. The status bar at the top of the screen lets you know if the bookmark was created successfully. The bookmark is automatically titled: quarantine_ [Channel Name] [Date] [Time].

Once a bookmark is created you are able to view it under the <Bookmark> tab in in any MIS screen. From there you can edit the bookmark and, if desired, change its name.
