You can use a video wall layout as a starting point for the display configuration of a video wall. One layout can be applied to multiple video walls.

Before you begin

Create a video wall layout.

What you should know

  • When you apply a layout to a video wall, the current configuration of the wall is replaced by what is defined in the layout.
  • When you apply a layout to a video wall, the display of the physical monitor changes in real time.
  • When you apply a layout containing entities that you don’t have access to, those entities won’t be pushed to the video wall.

    The error message You do not have access to this entity is displayed in the tiles containing those entities.

Procedure

  1. From the Security Desk homepage, open the Monitoring task.
  2. From the entity browser, drag a video wall to a tile on the canvas.
  3. Click Take control.
  4. From the entity browser, drag a video wall layout onto the video wall.
    The following image shows what the cursor looks like when dragging a layout onto the video wall.

    NOTE: If you drag the layout outside the bounds of the black box that represents the video wall, the cursor changes to a pointer with an arrow (), and the layout entity replaces the video wall in the tile instead of being applied to the video wall.
