Live View
The Live View tab allows you to watch real-time footage from all connected cameras at your facility. Use it to monitor activity across zones as it happens.
Camera grid
The main content area displays live feeds from all cameras in a grid layout. Each tile shows:
- The camera name and location
- A live video stream
- The number of people currently detected in frame
Change ALL camera quality in Live View using the drop down menu. You may select from 'Auto', 'Low', 'High' or 'Native'.
- 'Auto' will select the best quality based off of your bandwidth connection.
- 'Low' quality might be used when you know your bandwidth connection is poor, but should be avoided.
- 'High' is the most bandwidth intensive.
- 'Native' returns the in-built quality of the camera (usually will be of a high quality and bandwidth intensive).
