for 20 seconds.

The Snapshot button saves a snapshot of the video image currently on display. Right-click on the
video image to save it in JPEG format on your computer. This button is primarily intended for use
when the AMC viewer toolbar is not available.
The Play button connects to the Axis product and starts playing a media stream.
The Stop button stops the stream being played and terminates all network traffic with the Axis product.
The Snapshot button takes a snapshot of the current image. The location where the image is saved can be
specified using the AXIS Media Control (AMC).
Click the View Full Screen button and the video image will fill the entire screen area. No other windows will
be visible. Press Esc (Escape) on the computer keyboard to cancel full screen view.
The Record button is used to record the current video stream. The location where the recording is saved can
be specified using the AXIS Media Control toolbar.
When in Center Mode, click on any part of the image other than its exact center and the camera will move
so that the point you clicked on becomes the new center of the image.
If you select Emulate Joystick Mode, the camera moves in the direction of the mouse pointer. If you click and
hold down on the left mouse button, and then point your cursor at the lower left hand corner of the image,
the camera continues to move left and down until you release the mouse button.
