Step 3: Update and setup camera thumbnail for Viewer
In the Preview area, a camera view is

Move the mouse cursor around the image. Arrows
will appear and you can click and drag the cursor in
that direction. The preview will change accordingly.
When you move the mouse cursor to the center of
the image, a zoom in or zoom out control will appear.
For a VB-C50FSi and VB-C50Fi, only zoom is available.
Hold down the mouse on ‘+’ to zoom in.
Hold down the mouse on ‘-’ to zoom out.
Step 4: Select a hard drive for saving video
In the Drive menu, select a hard disk drive
on the Storage Server.
When you have finished configuration, click
the OK button to close the dialog and return
to the Camera Summary screen.
If you do not wish to manually control the camera, choose a pre-defined camera
position (if already configured) from the Preset Angle drop-down menu.

Presets need to be configured in advance. Please refer to the
camera server User’s Manual for details on making camera presets.
Tip
If you want to change the thumbnail and the preview area is blank
