Desktop notifications allows you to set unique PC alerts that include text, an image, and a distinguishing sound so that you not only see the notification but you hear it as well.
Desktop notifications display whenever an important Commander event occurs such as when a camera is lost or found or when motion has been detected by a camera.
Note: You can turn on or off desktop notifications from the Commander Software icon in the system tray.
Desktop notifications are turned on or off on the Settings > Alerts > Desktop tab. See Setting Desktop Notifications for details.
Here are four examples of the notifications that will appear on the desktop.
New Camera Discovered |
Camera Not Detected |
When a camera is discovered by your Commander software, the notification will display the type of camera + the icon of the camera discovered. |
When a camera is no longer detected by Commander, the notification will display and relay the camera’s name so you know exactly which camera to check on. |
Motion Detected |
Camera Found Again |
When a camera detects motion, the notification will display and relay the camera’s name and display a thumbnail of the recording from the camera that detected motion. |
When a camera (that is a known camera to the network) is rediscovered by Commander, a notifcation will display that lists the cameras name so you know that it has been reconnected. |
