The basic function of the remote client is receiving video and audio signals from video surveillance system servers, viewing video signals, listening to audio signals, and managing cameras, microphones, and PTZ devices by using various components of the operator's user interface (video surveillance monitor, audio player, map, PTZ window, and so on).

To configure the Remote Client, do the following:

1. Register the Computer object, which corresponds to the Remote Client, and set the interaction parameters with the Servers, Remote Admin Workstations, Remote Clients of the distributed video surveillance system on the administering server (see Configuring the Axxon PSIM™software system with distributed architecture of the digital video surveillance system).
2. Configure the user interface. To do this, create screen(s), configure the access to them using the Remote Client, and place the user interface components: video surveillance monitor, audio player, map, and so on on the screens. (see Configuring the user interface).
