A viewing tile is used to display video stream on the monitor of a computer with specific parameters for the purpose of video surveillance, archive viewing, and forensic search in archives. The viewing tile also has a function which allows the generation and evaluation of alarm events in the process of video monitoring of a guarded location.
The Viewing Tile supports two display types (see Configuring the Appearance of the Viewing Tile):
With controls over the video.
With controls outside the video.
A more detailed description of the functions of the viewing tile can be found in the section titled Video Surveillance.
If the connection to the camera is lost, the camera window is darkened and you get a corresponding message on the most recently received image.
