Photo Call-Up Tab
The Photo Call-Up feature allows the user to see the most recent badges scanned by a reader with each credential general information.
To view the credentials through Photo Call-Up:
Select the Photo Call-Up tab. A set of photo credentials for all doors get displayed as shown.
The Photo Call-Up screen shows only the recent credential accessed and scrolls the old credentials to the right. Each transaction that is displayed is clickable and displays which door was last scanned by the credential with date and time as shown below.
Host Time | The date and time this event was recorded by the Velocity server. |
Controller Time | The date and time this event occurred at the controller. This value will be different from the Host Time only if the controller is located in a different time zone, or if there is a delay between the time the event occurs on the controller and the time when it is received by the Velocity server. |
Description | A brief description of the event. This should supply a message indicating what the event was and where it took place. |
Address | The unique address Velocity assigns to this point. This indicates the exact point where the event took place. |
