The Viewer lets you create multiple layouts and organize them in tabs on the viewing area, so you can easily switch between different camera video. You can also operate up to two Viewer windows at the same time. With an environment that supports multiple displays, you can create a dual-display monitoring setup by locating a Viewer on each of the displays. Tags You can assign tags to a camera that give you information about the camera, such as its location and camera type. This is particularly useful when searching for cameras in a large-scale system. Dynamic layouts With this feature, you can automatically display videos in the Viewer on a layout from cameras that meet specific criteria, such as the camera status. User access management with user groups You can create user groups to more easily manage user access. By assigning permissions to a group, you automatically assign the same permissions to each member of the group. 12
