Add image to view or Smart Wall

You can display static images in a view, or on one or more Smart Walls. For example, this is useful when you want to share a snapshot of a suspect, or a diagram of emergency exits.

If you are sharing an image with users or Smart Walls that cannot access the network location of the image file, you can embed the image. When you embed an image it is stored in Smart Client, and the connection to the original file location is removed. If you remove or replace an embedded image from a Smart Wall and want to display it again, you must add the image file to the Smart Wall again.

Steps:

  1. Click the Setup button to enter setup mode.
  2. In the System Overview pane, drag the Image item to a position in the view.
  3. Select the image file that you want to add, and then click Open.
  4. To make the image available to others who cannot access the location of the image file, on the Properties pane, click Embed. The file is stored in the system.
  5. To send the image to your Smart Wall, in the toolbar of the view item, click More > Send to Smart Wall.
  6. Select the Smart Wall, the monitor, and the tile where you want the image to appear.
  7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each Smart Wall you want to send the image to.
