About the special privileges of administrators

 

Since Admin Viewer has more special privileges than the Viewer for PC and Viewer

 

for Java, please keep in mind the following points when using Admin Viewer:

 

Since connection time is unlimited, please exit the viewer after viewing.

 

When camera control privileges have been obtained, Admin Viewer

 

forcibly continues to obtain these privileges. After viewing, be sure to exit

 

the viewer or click the Control button again to release these privileges.

 

When making settings, keep in mind that images outside the view

 

restrictions are displayed also in the Viewer for PC and Viewer for Java that

 

are connected simultaneously with Admin Viewer.

 

 

Starting Up Admin Viewer

Click the "Admin Viewer" on the VBAdmin Startup Panel or double-click the "Admin Viewer" icon on the desktop.
