Group Tab

The top displays all the groups you have set up. Select a group by clicking in it. Below the divider, it displays all the cameras in the selected group.

Pro Tip: -_It's easier to edit a camera group under the Function Panel > Camera > Manage Camera > Edit Camera Group, plus it provides more controls.

The Add button creates a new group. You must name the group, set a dwell time, and use the checkboxes to select which camera(s) belong to that group. Each group must have at least one camera, and a camera can belong to more than one group.
