Basic Operation

●Using the [Timeline Browser]

You can browse through recorded images using the [Timeline Browser] on the right of the [Browse] window. The vertically extended timeline shows the recording status and reflects only the number of cameras displayed in the VR-N900 Viewer. Drag on the timeline up or down with the mouse while checking the time display pointer.

•The timeline is only a rough guide and may differ from actual time.

●Timeline Colors and Lines

The timeline of the camera selected in the view is highlighted in a lighter color.

■Red: Recordings with motion (Pink when highlighted)

■Green: Recordings without motion (Light green when highlighted)

■Black: Periods without recordings (Gray when highlighted)

■White horizontal line (Time display pointer): Indicates the time recorded for the image being displayed

Note

•Immediately below the timeline browser itself, you are able to specify which time span (1 hour, 2 hours, etc. up to 1 day) should be used in the timeline, and these settings are not saved and will be lost when the VR-N900 Viewer is restarted.

•If your mouse has a scroll wheel, you can also use the scroll wheel for browsing the timelines.

•Double-click at any point within a timeline to quickly move to the desired point in time.

•When you do not need the timeline browser, you can hide it by clicking the [Display ON/OFF] button in the left side of the timeline browser’s border.

CAUTION

•If you drag on the timeline suddenly up or down with the

mouse, a portion of the timeline may not update. In this case, reboot the VR-N900 Viewer (☞ Page 11).
