Add text to view item or Smart Wall

You can add text to a view item. If you are using XProtect Smart Wall, afterward you can add the text to your Smart Wall. For example, this is useful when you want to send a message or instructions to operators, or post a work schedule for security personnel. You can use up to 1,000 characters.

Steps:

  1. Click Setup to enter setup mode.
  2. On the System Overview pane, drag the Text item to the view item, where you want the text to appear. The Text Editor window appears.
  3. Enter the text.
  4. Click Save.
  5. To change your text after you save it, in setup mode, click Edit text in the Properties pane.
  6. To add the text to your Smart Wall, in the text view item, click More > Send to Smart Wall and select the monitor and tile in the Smart Wall, where you want the text to appear.

You can insert tables from products such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel, but you cannot make changes to the tables. Additionally, to accommodate for XProtect Smart Clients dark and light themes, the system tries to change the color format of light or dark text.
