Since most operations and settings of Admin Viewer are common with the
Viewer for PC, basic camera control and the like are omitted here. This chapter
Note
describes only the functions and operations that are unique to Admin Viewer.
The manual for the viewer is provided on the supplied CD-ROM
( VIEWER-E.pdf).
About the special privileges of administrators
Since Admin Viewer has more special privileges than the Viewer for PC and Viewer
for Java, please keep in mind the following points when using Admin Viewer:
● Since connection time is unlimited, please exit the viewer after viewing.
● When camera control privileges have been obtained, Admin Viewer
forcibly continues to obtain these privileges. After viewing, be sure to exit
the viewer or click the Control button again to release these privileges.
● When making settings, keep in mind that images outside the view
restrictions are displayed also in the Viewer for PC and Viewer for Java that
are connected simultaneously with Admin Viewer.
