1. Search by titles or clips as described above.
2. The search results are shown as a list of entries. Right click on the required entry. A context menu opens. The menu has two items: Video request and Frame request.
3. Select the Video request menu item. A dialog form for the request opens. There is another way to open this form: Select an entry from the list and click Video.
   
4. The Date and time (1) and Camera (2) fields are filled in automatically.

5. Use the Length (sec) field (3) to limit video clips.

   Info
   title Note.
   If the Not used value is selected in the Export to avi parameter (5), then one or more clips will be exported which contain the specified time interval relative to the date and time. In the context of a single clip, it's impossible to request only a part of it.

   If you try to set the value of the Length (sec) field to over 120, the value of 120 is offered. This is done to remind the user that such requests can export a big data file from a video archive on Agent Of Control side. If you want to turn this limitation off, click Settings in the lower-left area of the Search in archive area. In the window that opens, change the value of the Maximum length of loaded video clip, sec field.
   

6. If you want to decrease network load, set the Bandwidth __ KBps field (4) to the appropriate value.

7. The Export to avi parameter (5) allows you to select the format and codec of the requested video clip:

   1. Not used - the video clip will be exported as an archive with a set of directories and files from the VIDEO folder.

   2. Original - the video clip will be exported to an avi-file without transcoding.

   3. Xvid - the video clip will be exported to an avi-file with the Xvid codec.

   4. DivX - the video clip will be exported to an avi-file with the DivX codec.

   5. x264 - the video clip will be exported to an avi-file with the x264 codec.

      Note
      title Attention!
      The export to an avi-file with the specified codec is performed on the Agent Of Control side using the AviExport.run module . The AviExport.run module version used on the Agent Of Control should be no lower than 4.10.5.3776, and the required codec should be installed. Otherwise, an error Frame or video clip is not found (archive export error) will be received.
      Info
      title Note
      If the Agent Of Control version is lower than 11.0.1520, then the value of the Export to avi parameter will be automatically set to Not used without the possibility of changing it.

      
      

8. In the Start area, select the time for sending the request: Immediately or Schedule (6).

9. Set the waiting time by using the Data receive timeout, sec. field (7).

   Note
   title Attention!
   If you request a clip that is longer than one minute, you have to increase the value of the Data receive timeout, sec. parameter. It is necessary to do it, because it takes time to export a large video clip on the Agent Of Control side.

   
   

10. If the Open immediately check box (8) is selected, the data is put into the video archive and shown immediately. Otherwise, the data is only sent to the archive. To view such data, use the Monitoring PSIM reports component.

11. After you fill in all the fields, click New (9).

12. You will get to the Loads tab where the task performance process is displayed. While the video clip is being downloaded, it file size, loaded size, and transfer rate are shown. You can pause the download at any moment by clicking Pause.
    

    Info
    title Note.
    In case data have stopped coming during the download, for example if connection with the object is lost, download will be restarted after a random time interval from 1 to 60 seconds. In case of the attempt failure, attempts will be made at intervals of 1 minute. Information on the time remaining to the restart is displayed in the Comment field. Any time you can restart loading manually using the Restart button.

    
    

13. If the Open immediately check box was selected, then the downloaded clip will be played in the following way:
    
    1. on the Server Of Control and the Additional workplace using the Axxon Player utility, if the Not used value was selected in the Export to avi parameter.
    2. on the Server Of Control using the program specified in the AVI-files player parameter (see Configuring reaction to snapshots and videos), if a value other than Not used was selected in the Export to avi parameter.
    3. on the Additional workplace using the program specified in the AVI-files player parameter (see Interface of Additional workplace configuration tool), if a value other than Not used was selected in the Export to avi parameter.
