!42 To spot video by skipping through it
• Drag the skip-to-time slider to the right of its center position.
The amount of skip appears as a tool tip on the slider. See figure 27. After using the time
slider, the time in a Camera window caption changes and the skip-to-time slider returns
to a central, “Now” position. Skipping can be combined with playback speed (see
above) to optimize scanning of video.

left of its center position by small amounts.

“Top-of-the-minute” means that the jump-to-time slider rounds partial minutes to
the earliest time.

later media. If an operator requests video from a time at which the unit was not recording,
the first image after the requested time is displayed. The same applies to data and sound.
Later media is indicated by an icon that flashes in the upper-right corner of the Retrieval
window to indicate that what is being monitored is later than the “from time” that the
operator requested.
