To switch from a different surveillance mode to the Archive mode, click the Playback tab in the lower right corner of the Surveillance window.

Note

  • If a camera isn't linked to a video archive and has no embedded storage, this tab isn't available.
  • If a camera is in the Archive mode and video is paused, then after you drag another camera into its cell (from the objects tree, search panel or map), the new camera remains in the Archive mode with video paused. If the video is played back, the new camera is also displayed in the Archive view mode with video played black.

You can also switch from the Live mode to the Archive mode using the advanced archive navigation panel (see Advanced Archive Navigation Panel).

Note

In the Live mode, if the Surveillance window is inactive, the tabs for switching to other modes and the advanced archive navigation panel are not displayed. To display them, click the Surveillance window with any mouse button.

 To switch all cameras within a layout to the Archive mode, click the Playback button on the upper panel.

To return to the Live mode, click the Live button.

If all cameras within a layout are in the Live mode, you must open the Archive navigation panel to switch the cameras to the Archive mode (see Displaying and hiding the archive navigation panel).

Note

If the Archive mode is selected as the default video mode for a camera in a layout, when you switch to that layout, the camera is immediately in the Archive mode (see Selecting the default video mode for a camera).

The first time you switch to the Archive mode on the timeline (see The Timeline), the most recently recorded video is selected. In the future, when you go to archive of a particular camera, the timeline indicator is in the position corresponding to the last position in the Archive mode.

Attention!

If you prefer to open the most recently recorded video when accessing the archive, create the ResetArchivePosition key in the following registry on the Client: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AxxonSoft.

Click to create a temporary layout with cameras in the Archive mode only.

This layout is automatically deleted when you select any other layout.
