1. Enter a location name and an optional description.
The location name is used to identify the device. The location name can be a maximum of 50 characters and can include any letter, digit, or
special character, with the exception of single and double quotation marks. Location names are not case sensitive.
2. If the camera can be panned, tilted, zoomed, focused or the iris adjusted, click “This camera supports Pan/Tilt/Zoom functionality.” If the
camera is fixed, leave this box unchecked.
CONFIGURE THE PROPERTIES TAB
Figure 96. Properties Tab for ASCII Camera
Use the Properties tab to configure the animation settings of camera icons viewed on maps in the VMX300(-E) client. Click Choose next to each
condition to select the color settings for that condition. Note that you can configure a different color setting for each camera.
Unknown state: When the camera’s CommStatus property equals Offline, device icons in the client are the color specified here.
Normal state: When the camera’s CommStatus property equals Online, device icons in the client are the color specified here.
Alarm state: When the camera’s Alarm write property equals True, the icon flashes alternately between Color 1 and Color 2. Note, however,
that flashing icons can increase the CPU workload. To reduce the overall workload, set Color 1 and Color 2 to the same color.
