Monitoring events on a video wall - Video Wall 3.3.0

Using the Monitoring task, you can keep track of events that occur on video walls.

1. From the Security Desk homepage, open Options > Events.
2. Select the EIZO custom events that you want to monitor.
   NOTE: You can enter EIZO into the search field at the top of the window to quickly find the EIZO custom events.
3. Click Save.
4. Open the Monitoring task.
5. In the Area view, select the entities you want to monitor.
   To select multiple entities, hold Ctrl or Shift, and then select the entities.
6. Drag the selected entities over the Monitoring () icon at the bottom of the Monitoring task.
   The entities you selected are added to the Event monitoring list.
7. To show the event list, drag the divider down from the top of the Monitoring task window.
8. To monitor events in the canvas, choose one of the following two modes:

   Tile mode

   Tile mode is the main Security Desk canvas operating mode that presents information in separate tiles. You can turn monitoring on or off for each tile.

   Map mode

   Map mode is a Security Desk canvas operating mode that replaces tiles and controls with a geographical map showing all active, georeferenced events in your system. Switching to Map mode is a feature that comes with AutoVu™, Correlation, or Genetec Mission Control™, and requires a license for one of these major features.

   NOTE: To switch between tile mode and map mode, your account must have the Switch to map mode privilege.

9. From the Area view, drag and drop the entities you want to view into the canvas.
10. (Optional) To protect the content in the tile from being overwritten by new events, turn off monitoring for that tile.
    Tip: This is helpful if you have a tile plugin displayed in the canvas, and do not want an event to replace it.
    1. Select a tile in the canvas.
    2. In the tile widget, click Monitoring (), and click Monitor events.
    The check mark beside Monitor events disappears and the tile ID background turns black.

After you finish

You can edit or delete event display behaviors in the list by selecting one, and then clicking Edit () or Delete (), respectively.
