How does the Smart Client get Images from the
Surveillance System?
Images viewed by Smart Client users are provided by the Image Server. The Image Server runs as
a service on the surveillance system server; it does not require separate hardware.
The access rights of individual Smart Client users are defined by the surveillance system
administrator on the Image Server.
How can User Rights Affect Use of the Smart Client?
The rights of individual remote users are specified centrally by the surveillance system
administrator. Your user rights will determine your ability to use the Smart Client’s features.
Basically, the surveillance system administrator is able to restrict a user’s rights to the following:
 Access to the Smart Client
 Access to each of the Smart Client’s tabs: Live, Browse and Setup
 Ability to use features on the Smart Client’s tabs
 Ability to create views (views determine the way in which images from one or more
cameras are displayed)
 Ability to view images from specific cameras
The ability to use various features of the Smart Client may therefore vary considerably from user to
user. Ask your surveillance system administrator if in doubt about your user rights.
