Usage

Page Elements

The page is divided on several frames. Each is generated based on cameras.js config file. In common case, it is 4 peripheral frames with small live video pictures.

top frame
left frame	central window	right frame
	control frame
bottom frame

Each peripheral frame can be hidden if the config file does not contain corresponding javascript array. The peripheral frames, if presented, have fixed sizes. Top and bottom frames have height of 199 pixels. Left and right frames have width of 256 pixels. Other space is given to the central window. For example if you have 1280x1024 display, the page can contain 5 small pictures in the top and bottom frames. Also, if both top and bottom frames are presented, left and right frames with 3 pictures in each and total maximum number of cameras will be 16. Or you can configure the page to have 5 pictures in one side at the top, bottom, left or right.
