Configure Watch

Open Settings in the sidebar, then choose a section on the left. For a first setup, get one camera showing live video and fresh analyses. Change one setting at a time so you can compare the result.

Appearance and language

In General, choose a light or dark appearance and the app language. The interface updates immediately, and the language becomes the default for new analyses. Quiet status text hides status text on connected, safe cameras; errors and alerts remain visible.

The same page contains desktop update controls. Arrange a break in monitoring before following the update steps.

Analysis readiness and image detail

  1. Choose Camera AI engine, complete the preparation shown on screen, and wait for the sidebar AI status to become ready.
  2. Keep the current settings for the first test. Before changing image detail or analysis frequency, record the previous values.
  3. To check the connection, expand Analysis frequency and AI model connection and select Test Local. Return to the camera and verify that new analysis timestamps continue to appear.

Missions and alerts

In Monitoring mission, choose shared or per-camera settings. For per-camera settings, select the camera before editing its mission and suspicious or critical conditions. Pause after typing, then check fresh analyses from that camera. Below the mission settings, choose visual and sound alerts for each severity. The play button tests the sound only.

API access and event delivery

To let another system read Watch data, open API & integrations and follow the API guide for connection and read-only key setup. To send events from Watch, expand Advanced event delivery. Confirm the receiver address with its administrator, create a test connector, and verify receipt.

Account access and camera imports

Access control shows whether Watch is in Local or multi-user mode. In multi-user mode, an administrator assigns accounts and source permissions for viewing, exporting, and management. Local mode does not require individual sign-in. Use Import Camera Config for a batch camera setup.

Import replaces cameras by position and clears RTSP addresses in remaining positions omitted from the file. Keep the previous complete configuration. Use Add Camera to add one camera.

If a change does not take effect

Check the selected camera, shared versus per-camera mode, and whether a schedule is applying another mission. Some saved choices, such as 360 settings, apply on the next start. Keep the previous values and verify fresh analyses before making another change.
