SEARCH FOR VIDEO
AvertX recommends that you search for video through a
web browser. This enables Preview Search, Visual Timebar
Search, Event Search and other advanced options.
Date/Time Search:
Date/Time Search allows you to search video visually.
This is useful to find events if you don’t know when an
event occured and you need to scan video quickly. It
is also useful when you know when an event occurred
because you can go directly to that time.
1. On the Menu Bar, click Search.
2. Select cameras by clicking on the camera list on the
right side.
3. Set the appropriate dates and times to start your
search on the bottom menu bar.
a. Click on the Calendar icon to select date.
b. Use + and - to select time.
4. (Web browser only) Use the Timebar to find recorded
video to review. Recorded video per channel is indicated
by a colored bar. You can move to any point on the
Timeline by clicking and moving the bar.
5. (Web browser only) You can view the timebar in larger
or smaller increments by clicking the + or - but tons
on the top left corner of the Timebar, or by using the
mouse wheel.
6. Click the Play Icon to preview video at the time of
the eve nt.
Preview Search (Web Browser Only):
Preview Search allows you to see a grid of images that
show elapsed time on a particular camera. By clicking an
image, you can narrow the elapsed time range and find
the desired event very quickly. This is especially useful to
find events where there is a noticeable difference in the
image before and after the event, such as when an object
goes missing or when vandalism occurs.
To Use Preview Search:
1. On the Menu Bar, click Search.
2. Click Preview Search in bottom left corner of window.
3. Select a camera by clicking on the camera list on the
right side. Note: Preview Search allows for only one
camera displayed at a time.
4. Click on the Date and Time Bar at the bottom of the
screen to select a date and time to start your search.
5. Select the Number of Thumbnails, the Time
Range, and turn the OSD On / Off as desired. Your
combination of thumbnail quantity and time range will
determine the time interval between each snapshot
displayed. For example, 25 thumbnails in a 24 hour
time range will result in 1 hour time intervals between
displayed pictures.
6. Click on the desired thumbnail to narrow the time
interval, opening new thumbnails. When the thumbnail
is narrowed to the smallest time interval, clicking again
will begin recorded video playback in the Timebar
Search Screen.
MOTION DETECTION
AvertX cameras are set to register motion as events in the
video timeline. By default, the camera’s entire field of view will
be set to detect motion. You can customize areas of the field
of view that will register motion events. To configure Motion:
1. On the Menu Bar, click Setup, then Cameras.
2. Click the desired camera in the Camera L ist.
3. Click the Motion tab.
4. Click Add Motion A rea, and then click and drag the
capture square to create the area.

for specific areas of the video stream.

thresholds.
