New Roof Camera
Today we replaced the roof camera with a new network camera.   It is best viewed from the monitor where the Access system is.  This monitor now has two computers connected to it.  One the access computer and the other the Roof camera computer.  you can easily switch between the two with the buttons on the monitor.  

The camera is accessed view a web browser.  Designed for Windows explorer but we have Mozilla working on this machine.   I will post the IP address on the monitor.  Standard controls password accesses the camera and you control pan/tilt and zoom with the mouse and the controls on the left side of the screen.  I will be adding go to points like a view of the gate that with a simple click the camera will adjust to.  This is proving somewhat difficult as we do not have all of the plugins installed.

If you have to re-open the screen accept the certificate and continue.  If the video seems quite small on the left side select a different video stream then return to 1 and the screen will resized.  
This is a new camera so try it out and we can make some changes and possibly get a joy stick if people want.
