Alerted Cameras layout

The first 10 seconds after the alert appears in the special layout, it is highlighted. 

Cameras disappear from the Alerted Cameras layout in 2 cases:

1. After the alert is classified and the next camera is on (see Assessing an alarm event).

2. After the timeout expires (see Configuring Alarm processing).

   Info
   title Note
   The alarm sticks to the layout while the Alarm Management window is open and before the timeout expires. If you select a different camera without classifying the alarm, the alarm evaluation timeout resets.

   
   

New alerted cameras will populate the layout as follows:

1. If there are any free cells on the layouts after you have classified or missed the alert, the first free cell is taken.
2. If there are no free cells on the layout, the new alerted cameras takes the next free cell. If there are no free cells, the alerted camera is added to the waiting list

Selected Cameras layout

All selected cameras are displayed on this layout.

Dynamic layout

By default, Dynamic layout is empty. You can add cameras from the object panel (see Objects Panel) one by one or several at once (a group, all video cameras of the Server or Domains).

To do this, select the target unit on the Object panel and drag&drop it to the layout. During camera drag&drop, the layout shows the grid. The empty cell with the cursor in it, is highlighted when you drag the camera.

If you switch from Dynamic layout to any other, all cameras remain in the current mode. Those in the Archive mode, will keep it when you return to Dynamic layout. The pointer position on Timeline remains intact either.

All changes to Dynamic layout are preserved until you exit the Client. After you launch the Client, the Dynamic layout is always empty.

However, you can back up your Dynamic layout at any given time (see Layout copying).
