The illustration outlines a typical window layout. You can customize the layout so it may look different on your computer.
Site Navigation pane: This is your main navigation element in the Management Client. It reflects the name, settings and configurations of the site that you have logged into. The site name is visible at the top of the pane. The features are grouped into categories that reflect the functionality of the software.
Federated Site Hierarchy pane: This is your navigation element that displays all Milestone Federated Architecture sites in a parent/child site hierarchy.
You can select any site, log into it and the Management Client for that site launches. The site that you are logged into, is always at the top of the hierarchy.
Overview pane: Provides an overview of the element you have selected in the Site Navigation pane, for example as a detailed list. When you select an element in the Overview pane, it typically displays the properties in the Properties pane. When you right-click elements in the Overview pane you get access to the management features.
Properties pane: Displays the properties of the element selected in the Overview pane. The properties appear on several dedicated tabs:
Preview pane: The Preview pane appears when you work with recording servers and devices. It shows preview images from the selected cameras or displays information about the state of the device. The example shows a camera preview image with information about the resolution and data rate of the camera's live stream:
By default, the information shown with the camera preview images concerns live streams. This is displayed in green text above the preview. If you want recording stream information instead (red text), select View > Show Recording Streams in the menu.
Performance can be affected if the Preview pane displays preview images from many cameras at a high frame rate. To control the number of preview images, and their frame rate, select Options > General in the menu.
