Alarm Indicators: As alarms are received, a color-coded alarm indicator appears in the toolbar. Each alarm indicator represents
a different type of alarm that Endura supports. For example, a green alarm indicator represents normal alarms. Yellow indicates minor
alarms, orange indicates major alarms, and red indicates critical alarms. A flashing indicator means that an alarm has been received
but not acknowledged.
Workspaces: Each workspace tab displays a group of video panes with the cameras you have selected. Changes to the camera
selections are automatically saved. You do not have to select the same cameras each time you log on. There are three specialized
workspaces:
• External Monitors. This workspace functions as a virtual monitor wall, with monitor icons arranged to correspond to physical
NTSC/PAL or VGA monitors. Refer to Configuring External Monitors on page 128 for information on setting up these icons. Drag
cameras onto this workspace to display video on your actual monitor wall.
• Enhanced Search. This workspace allows you to search for video by a date/time range, multiple devices, and multiple events. It
also supports locking, unlocking, and exporting video.
• Alarms. This workspace functions as the Alarm Manager. The Alarm Manager workspace displays a list of all active alarms
including those from physical events, motion events, and device errors reported by the system. An icon indicates the type of
response to each alarm to clear it, acknowledge it, or pause it to resolve later (also referred to as snoozing an alarm).
Video Pane: A bright green border indicates the currently selected video pane in live-view mode. Bright yellow indicates recorded (or
playback) video. Bright red indicates that manual recording is in progress. If audio is available, it will stream along with the live or
recorded video. Right-click the video pane to see what services (such as patterns and presets) the camera supports.
Video Controls: When you move your cursor into a pane to which video is streaming (either live or played back), these controls
appear in the lower-left corner of the pane. Move the pointer above each button to learn its function.
Search Results Tabs: These tabs allow you to search for video from a single camera on the Quick Search tab or to view broader
search results on the Enhanced Search Results tab. Each tab offers playback and export options. For information about the Quick
Search or Enhanced Search functions, refer to Searching for Video on page 63.
Quick Search Timeline: This timeline displays any video that has been recorded in the past 24 hours for the currently selected
camera. As you select a different video pane, the display is updated to reflect the available recorded video for the currently selected
camera.
Status Bar: Icons on this bar indicate available network services, the security status for the system, and the currently active interface
feature.
