Each camera video window offers functions for cameras depending on the state of the camera — connected, connected with sound, connected without sound, or disconnected. These options include camera settings and features, camera maintenance, and audio settings.

These options can be accessed by clicking on icons that are overlayed on the camera video window. These icons will only display when you carry the mouse over the top of that camera’s video window.
