NTSC/PAL or VGA monitors. Drag and drop cameras onto this workspace to display video on your actual monitor wall.
•Enhanced Search. This workspace allows you to search for video by a date/time range, multiple devices, and multiple events. It also
supports locking, unlocking, and exporting video.
•Alarms. This workspace functions as the Alarm Manager. The Alarm Manager workspace displays a list of all active alarms including
those from physical events, motion events, and device errors reported by the system. An icon indicates the type of response to each
alarm to clear it, acknowledge it, or pause it for later (also referred to as snoozing an alarm).

see what services (such as patterns and presets) the camera supports.
Video Controls: When you move your cursor into a pane to which video is streaming (either live or played back), these controls appear in
the lower-left corner of the pane. Rest your mouse above each button to learn its function.
Search Results Tabs: These tabs allow you to search for video from a single camera on the Quick Search tab or to view broader search
results on the Enhanced Search Results tab. Each tab offers playback and export options.
