TrackCam – How to View the Live Camera

The camera icon must say “ON” in order to view the live camera. This includes vehicles with ignition on, or in their standby mode before shut down.

From your TrackCam map page, find the asset that you will view the live camera on.

There are several ways to get to the live camera for an asset:

1. Click on the three stacked dots to the right of the Asset name, and click on “View Camera” on the pop-up menu.

Then click on the “Live” tab.

2. Click directly on the asset name on your map menu, and click on the “Camera” tab.

Then click on the “Live” tab.

3. From the map itself, hover over a visible asset and click on the three stacked dots to the right of the asset name, then click on “View Camera” on the pop-up menu.

Then click on the “Live” tab.

From here, you will be able to see a live feed from the installed cameras. Scroll down to see more camera feeds. Visible text on the camera feed provides information about the time zone setting for the camera, the current date and time, the Latitude/Longitude location, and the speed. The icon on the map will show you the position of the asset and the direction it is traveling.

By clicking the settings icon in the upper right corner of the video feed, you are able to make adjustments to be able to view the footage better on your screen.

The icons at the bottom right of the video will allow you to adjust the volume or mute the sound, or go into full-screen mode.

You are also able to set your Stream timeout (default is 30 seconds) and refresh the stream after it stops.

However, be advised that there is a limit to the data transfer on each of the devices, and live streaming continuously will use up a large portion of your monthly data transfer limit. It is recommended that you use this function sparingly and only when necessary to check the cameras to ensure they are working properly, or if you have a specific reason to look in on a vehicle.
