Server and Client views🔗

To display the images from the cameras on the screen in the client applications, Eocortex uses Views – grids with the images from the cameras shown in the cells. There are two types of views: Server and Client ones.

Server View is a view created by a video surveillance system administrator in Eocortex Configurator. The server views are available in the Eocortex Client application as well as in the mobile client applications working under Android and iOS. In a multi-server system, the server views are available when connecting to any server of the system via the client application. At that, the server view is added to the client application at the moment of launching it. Thus, if you create or modify a server view, the changes will appear only after the restart of the application.
Client View is a view created by a user in the client application. The client views are available only on a particular device or computer on which they were created, and only for the particular user who created them. Upon the termination of a session of working with the client application, all the client views that contain no cameras are deleted.

Warning

The server views that contain no cameras will not be added to the client application when it is launched.

Note

In the client application, a server view can be distinguished from a client view by the presence of an icon in the form of a house in the lower right corner of the schematic representation of this view of the server application.

Note

Until version 3.0 inclusively, it was possible to use server views only for displaying cameras. That said, it was possible to select a screen grid in the client application and place cameras in its cells as required.

When upgrading from version 3.0 or lower to version 3.1 or higher, the last used screen grid will be converted to the pinned client view.
