Carousels
Carousels can loop through multiple cameras across multiple servers in the same server farm,
pausing on each camera for a defined time.
You can assign a carousel to a video panel in the client interface. The video panel will automatically
loop through the cameras and will include controls to pause and move forward and backward
through cameras in the carousel.
You can create a carousel in the server configuration interface. Once created, carousels appear in
the device tree in the client interface.
