Setting System Options
The default configuration of your LukWerks system provides you with all of the basic features activated
allowing you to have your own professional video surveillance system running in minutes. However, Werks
gives you the ability to change the settings in order to enable additional features like email alerts and remote
viewing. You find these options in the Werks Setup dialog, which you access by clicking the SETUP button from
the Live or Search windows.
Overview of Werks Settings
Using Setup is really quite simple and intuitive. Simply click on the SETUP button on the main window. You find
this button next to the LIVE or SEARCH button. Additionally, you can right-click on one of the video windows
and choose one of the options we display. They too will lead you into Setup.
Setup is like any other tabbed dialog in modern Windows applications. It consists of a title bar and various
tabs that show feature specific fields and buttons, which allow you to set and modify camera and system
settings. Additionally, you view information and statistics regarding the cameras, network, and system.
Werks Setup Tabs
Setup is divided into five tabs— Camera, Recording, Email, Remote, and Advanced. To further introduce you to
these tabs, here is a table that describes each one:

the selected camera. Here you can perform these and other operations:
