The display area can display a maximum of 16 live screens at the same time. Display as a tile pattern reduces the screens in size. The field "Camera" provides the possibility of a larger display. If eight cameras are connected and only four live screens are to be displayed at the same time, open the view 2x2 by clicking in the toolbar. Cameras one to four will be displayed. A mouse click on the "arrow upwards" displays the next four live screens. The camera number jumps from 0 (for the first camera) to the number 4 (for the fifth camera) automatically. With a mouse click on the "arrow downwards" the live screens of the first four cameras are displayed again.

The number of licensed cameras is also displayed in the toolbar.

With a double click on a camera image the ibaCapture camera status window will open.

The ibaCapture camera status shows useful information on the camera (e.g. status, recording time, number of video triggers, resolution and bit rate).

When the camera is in error state a double-click on the camera view will open the ibaPDA client log file.
