Smart Client Scripting
For advanced users it is possible to create function calls in the Smart Client. Note that the use of
scripting will require some familiarity with programming.

To view a list of the approximately 100 different function calls you are able to use in the Smart
Client, do the following on the Smart Client’s Setup tab:
1. Drag the System Overview section’s HTML Page link to a position in a view.

list’s content.
When you release the mouse button over the required position, the Open URL window
opens:
2. In the Open URL window’s Open field, type about:script and click OK.

description of its purpose; and you will be able to try out many of the function calls straight
from the list.

connect to the surveillance system automatically, based on the user’s current Windows
login.
