•Operator accounts. For Users of View software and Admin software, including passwords to user accounts, see p. 151.

Using View software for site maintenance

After units are installed and a Multi db is created, View software is used to run a Maintenance Session. During a Maintenance Session, a unit’s settings can be changed:

•Unit’s Time Zone and Clock. To identify recorded video, it is important to set a unit's time zone and clock. See page 56.

•Video. The resolution of recorded video can be set and the monitor settings of Microsoft Windows can be adjusted. See Video Feed Setup, p. 65.
