Camera preview settings
In the preview camera settings, you can choose which camera will be rendered in which camera preview window.
Only two camera preview windows are available on the security dashboard. That mean, only two camera previews can be displayed at the same time:
- LEFT camera preview
- RIGHT camera preview
To enter the camera preview settings, hit the SETTINGS button near to the camera preview title or click on the link settings directly in the empty camera placeholder.
