Viewer for Java
Viewer Overview
This is a viewer written using Java. This viewer allows the camera server’s videos to be
viewed on any computer with a Web browser that runs Java, regardless of the platform.
Because the Java applet is downloaded when the viewer starts up, the first video takes
some time to appear. The Viewer for Java provides two types of viewers: LiveApplet
containing video display and camera control functions, and Glimpse containing a video
display function.

There are two types of WebView Livescope Viewer Software: the Viewer for Java and the Viewer for

Note
●To use the Viewer for Java, you need to install Java VM beforehand. See the
web site for more details.
WebView Product web site http://www.canon.com/webview
●Panorama pictures must be registered in advance at the camera server.
*Panorama pictures are not available with the VB-C50Fi.
Introduction

Viewer for PC
This is a viewer that runs as an application. This viewer provides video display and camera
control functions and appears in a separate window at startup. While the Viewer for PC has
to be pre-installed, it offers the advantage of displaying the first video quickly. At present,
only a Windows version of this viewer is available.
c
Note
●The Viewer for PC is provided on the CD-ROMs supplied with the Network
Camera Server VB150, the Network Camera VB-C50i/VB-C50iR and VB-
C50Fi packages. The viewer can also be downloaded free of charge from
the following web site.
URL : http://www.canon.com/webview
●The Viewer for PC needs to be pre-installed on your computer. (→p.26)
●Panorama pictures must be registered in advance at the camera server.
*Panorama pictures are not available with the VB-C50Fi.
●When playing back audio, please read carefully “Usage Notice of Audio”
(→ P.4).
*Audio input/output is not available with the VB-C50Fi.

●Because the Viewer for Java is downloaded from the camera server every
time you access and displays video on the viewer screen, it starts up
slower than the Viewer for PC that is pre-installed on a PC.
●Use the Viewer for Java when you access the camera server and view video
for the first time. However, we recommend you to install and use the Viewer
for PC if you view video frequently.
