User Guide

The left sidebar has four groups:

Group	Items
Monitor	Live View — the video wall
Manage	Cameras, Groups, Maps
Investigate	Events, Clips (clips and screenshots), Logs
Admin	Settings

Settings unfolds in the same sidebar: Connections (Alta servers), Storages, Users, Notifications, Alerts (your own alert preferences), and License (activation and the Vision version). Click it once to open Connections, again to fold it. On a phone, the menu drawer lists the settings pages.

Every page works on a phone: lists keep their key columns and filters stack under the title.

What Vision does

Vision is the control plane for your Cesbo Alta servers. Alta ingests and records the camera streams; Vision adds the video wall, archive timeline, events, alerts, and per-group access in the browser. Recordings stay on Alta.

First steps

1. Connect an Alta server — Settings → Connections.
2. Add cameras — ONVIF discovery or by hand.
3. Organize them into groups (optional) and grant access.
4. Open Live View and save your walls as views.
5. Set up alerts so you’re notified when something changes.

A typical session

1. Open a saved view in Live View (keys 1–9).
2. When the bell rings, open the alert: it links to the camera or server.
3. Open the camera’s Archive tab and scrub to the moment.
4. Export a clip or take a screenshot, and find it later under Clips.

Note

What you see depends on your role. Admins see everything; Operators and Viewers see only the cameras in their groups, and Viewers do not see Maps.
