provides a precise way to choose the start time and the end

time of a new period. The end time must be later than the start time. After you

give the correct start and end time, clicking on the

button in the jog dial will

play the new period in the Display Area. If you change the period start and end

time label, the

Pull Bar

and

Histogram Area

will change, too. If the selected

period is not present in the database, the data in the

Period Selector

will

change to the previous correct start and end time and a warning message will

be displayed.

alert area selector indicates will be highlighted with red rectangle if you checked

that window in the settings dialog. The alert area selector will be changed to

alert window zero, when you change the location selector to another one.

Play Control

jog dial is used to provide the easiest way to control the

displaying video sequence. Except the

the displaying frame in the normal display mode and the selected displaying

frame in the

will vary depending on differing circumstances. In the normal display mode,

clicking on the
