[Play] - Play the video.

[Cancel] - Discard the clip and return to live video.

4. Click to save your video.

Multi-Camera Viewing

Click the Views button to go to the multi-camera viewing window. If you are currently logged in to a camera, its video appears at the top left of the multi-camera viewing area. You can now select up to three additional cameras to log in to from the drop down list at the top. If you have defined any camera

groups, you can log in to the whole group at once by selecting the group name from the list. The connection status dialog will show the status of connecting to each camera and then each camera’s video will appear in one of the other three video windows.

Enable Audio Click on a camera’s video window to select it. A yellow outline will appear around the window.

You may now enable audio for that camera by clicking the audio enable button. Click on another camera’s window to hear its audio.

Refresh Click the Refresh button to refresh the camera screen.

Show/Hide Click the Show/Hide button to show or hide cameras that you have logged in to.

Layout Click the Layout button to change the layout of the multi-camera viewing area. The default is four medium (320 x240) camera views on one screen. Changing this setting to One Camera View, will give one large camera view on each screen and a vertical scroll bar will appear on the right side allowing you to scroll down to see other camera views.

Views Click the Views button to return to the single camera viewing window. The currently selected camera will be active. You will not be logged out of any other cameras you are logged in to.

802.11b specifications

The Veo 802.11b is a notable wireless networking standard that emerged in the late 1990s as one of the first widely adopted protocols for local area networks (LANs). Operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, 802.11b provided users with the ability to connect to the internet and share resources without the constraints of wired connections.

One of the primary features of 802.11b is its maximum data transfer rate of 11 Mbps, which was impressive at the time of its release. This speed allowed for basic internet usage, file sharing, and general network connectivity. While this might seem slow by today’s standards, it laid the foundation for the rapid evolution of wireless technologies.

Veo 802.11b utilized Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology, which enhanced the reliability of the connection by spreading the signal over a wider frequency range. This technique helped to reduce interference, particularly in environments with multiple wireless devices operating on the same frequency. The standard also included mechanisms for ensuring data integrity, such as the use of cyclic redundancy check (CRC) algorithms.

In terms of range, Veo 802.11b offered coverage of approximately 100 to 300 feet indoors, and up to 1000 feet outdoors depending on environmental factors. This range made it suitable for home networks and small office environments, allowing users to access the internet from different locations within a building without the need for cumbersome cabling.

Another characteristic of the 802.11b standard was its compatibility with the earlier 802.11 standard, ensuring that devices using both protocols could operate together. This backward compatibility facilitated a smoother transition for users upgrading their systems, as they could maintain connectivity with older devices while enjoying the benefits of faster wireless networking.

Security was also an important aspect, though initially limited. The standard employed Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) for data encryption, which provided a basic level of security to protect wireless communications. However, as vulnerabilities were discovered in WEP, the need for stronger security protocols became evident, leading to further developments in later standards.

Ultimately, the Veo 802.11b played a pivotal role in revolutionizing wireless communications. It established the groundwork for further advancements such as 802.11g and 802.11n, which provided higher speeds and greater efficiency. While newer standards have since eclipsed its capabilities, 802.11b remains a significant milestone in the evolution of wireless networking technology. Its influence can still be seen in the pervasive use of wireless networks in homes, offices, and public spaces around the world today.
