2. Slideshow.

The control panel toolbar is displayed in the Monitor interface window and enables the following operations:

...

Current date and time are also displayed on the control paneltoolbar.

Slideshow The slideshow is used for a successive close-up display of camera windows on the Monitor. Slideshow is performed with the help of the buttons on the toolbar of the Monitor in two ways:

...

1. Go to the settings panel of the Monitor interface object.
   
2. To enable the Active camera mode, set the Active camera radio button in the Basic settings tab (1).
3. To enable the Alarm cameras mode, set the Alarm cameras radio button in the Basic settings tab (2). As a result, the Min field will be available.

4. In the Max field, specify the required maximum number of camera windows that should be displayed on the Monitor in the Alarm cameras or List mode (3). If the number of alarm cameras exceeds the maximum number, then the display of the camera windows, the alarms on which were registered earlier, is stopped. 

   Info
   title Example
   The Monitor object is set for operation with the maximum number of alarm cameras, equal to five. The windows of four alarm cameras are displayed in the Monitor window. Alarm events on these cameras were registered in the following sequence: Camera 1, Camera 2, Camera 3 and Camera 4. When alarm is registered on three more cameras, seven cameras are alarmed at the same time. This exceeds the maximum acceptable number, so the display of Camera 1 and Camera 2 windows is stopped.

   If the number of cameras is less than the maximum or not specified, then camera windows fill the maximum available space of the Monitor.

   Info
   title Note
   In order for the camera windows in the Monitor to be displayed as symmetrical folds (1, 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, etc.), it is necessary to add the TrySquareLayout registry key (see Registry keys reference guide).

   
   

5. If the Alarm cameras mode is selected, then in the Min field, specify the required minimum number of cameras to be displayed on the layout of the Video surveillance monitor (4). If the number of the alarm cameras is less than the minimum number, the Monitor will display fewer cameras than specified in the Min field. The fold of the Monitor will correspond to the Min field. The following folds (number of camera windows) are available: 1, 4, 9, etc.
   If there is no alarm, and if the default value of 0 (zero) is set for the Min parameter, the camera windows are not displayed in the Monitor window. By default, the Min field is empty.

   Info
   title Example
   The Monitor object is set for operation with the minimum number of alarm cameras, equal to three. Windows of five alarm cameras are displayed in the Monitor window. When the alarm on four cameras is stopped in the sequence: Camera 1, Camera 2, Camera 3 and Camera 4, one camera is in the alarm mode. This is less than the minimum number, so Camera 5 will be displayed on the Monitor, and the Monitor will switch to the four-fold display.

   
   

6. To enable the List mode, set the List radio button in the Basic settings tab (5).

7. If necessary, specify the required value (in seconds) of automatic slideshow of the camera windows in the Slideshow field (6). The default camera windows scroll interval is 3 second. If you enter 0 in the field, the default value will be applied. The maximum possible value is 600 seconds.

   Info
   title Note
   This setting is relevant only in the List mode when the toolbar is used. Instead of camera windows slideshow, you can enable layouts slideshow using the CycleByLayouts registry key (see Registry keys reference guide).

   
   

8. To save all the changes, click the Apply button (7).
