Search for cameras and views

If you know the name of a view or a camera, or the characteristics or descriptions of a camera, you can search for them in all your views groups.

For example:

  • Camera descriptions: Your system administrator has given all your outdoor cameras an Outdoor tag.

  • Camera capabilities: PTZ, audio, input, and output.

Your search results include cameras and any views they are part of.

  1. On the Views tab and in the Search views and cameras field, enter the text that you want to search for.

    Alternatively, select next to the search field to select one of the common search keywords.

  2. From the search results, you can select:

    • A view to open the view.

    • One or more cameras to view the video in a temporary view. Select a camera or press Ctrl or Shift to select multiple cameras, and then press Enter.
