Using an HTML Page for Smart Client Navigation
In addition to displaying images from cameras, the Smart Client is able to display static images
and HTML pages. Such HTML pages may be used for intuitively switching between different views in
the Smart Client.
For example, you may insert a clickable floor plan of a building, and you would be able to simply
click a part of the floor plan to instantly switch to a view displaying images from the required part
of the building.
In the following, you will see examples of HTML pages for Smart Client navigation: a simple HTML
page with buttons, and a more advanced HTML page with a clickable image map.
For Milestone XProtect Enterprise system administrators wishing to create and distribute such HTML
pages to Smart Client users, a check list outlining the tasks involved is also provided.
Tip: The Smart Client is highly flexible when it comes to customizing navigation and other
features. For advanced users it is possible to create approximately 100 different function calls in
the Smart Client. See Smart Client Scripting on page 48 for more information
