Grid
: When a camera is selected, a snapshot image is grabbed from the live video that is the focus of the
camera or from previously recorded video of that camera. The snapshot image is displayed in the grid.
Verify that the date/time caption at the top of the grid matches your request. By default, the grid displays
with rows of red cells. A portion of the image that is displayed in the grid window can be selected as a
way of narrowing the focus of the search.
