Additional information on camera

Additional information on the camera is:

Displayed on the video surveillance monitor over the camera name (disabled by default in order to reduce GPU load, see Setting the parameters of the Monitor interface box).
Added to the name of export file from interface monitor (AVI, BMP/JPEG) and for frame printing.
Displayed in the Event log window in the Additional info column.

To set additional information, do the following:

Go to the Hardware tab in the System settings dialog box (1).
Select the Camera object, created before, corresponding to the camera to be adjusted, in the Hardware tab in the objects tree (2). The settings panel for the selected object is displayed on the right of the Hardware tab.
Go to the Advanced settings tab on the settings panel of the Camera object (3).
Type in additional information (not more than 100 characters) in the Additional info field (4).
Note
The color of additional information displayed on the Surveillance monitor changes according to the state of the Camera. For example, if the Camera is recording, the text will be red, otherwise it will be white. Using the MonitorExtraTextColor registry key, you can set an unchanging arbitrary color (for details, see Registry keys reference guide).
To save the changes, click the Apply button (5).

Additional information is now set.
