Set up remote monitoring
About snapshots
Local input sources
Snapshots of the local input sources 
of the video system appear on the Call 
Control page. 
Snapshots appear both when the video 
system is idle, and when in a call.
Far end snapshots
When in call, you may also see snapshots 
from the far end camera. It does not 
matter whether or not the far end video 
system has the RemoteMonitoring option.
Far end snapshots are not displayed if the 
call is encrypted.
Check whether or not the video system has the 
RemoteMonitoring option
1.  Sign in to the web interface.
2.  Check the Home page to see if RemoteMonitoring is on the 
list of Installed options.
If not on the list, remote monitoring is not available.
Enable remote monitoring
Install the RemoteMonitoring option key. How to install option keys 
are described in the ► Add option keys chapter.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT IF YOU ENABLE THE REMOTE MONITORING 
OPTION YOU MUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU COMPLY WITH LOCAL 
LAWS AND REGULATIONS WITH REGARD TO PRIVACY AND PROVIDE 
ADEQUATE NOTICE TO USERS OF THE SYSTEM THAT THE SYSTEM 
ADMINISTRATOR MAY MONITOR AND CONTROL THE CAMERA AND 
SCREEN. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO COMPLY WITH PRIVACY 
REGULATIONS WHEN USING THE SYSTEM AND CISCO DISCLAIMS ALL 
LIABILITY FOR ANY UNLAWFUL USE OF THIS FEATURE.
Requirement:
•  RemoteMonitoring option
Remote monitoring is useful when you want to control the video 
system from another location. 
Snapshots from input sources appear in the web interface, so you 
can check the camera view and control the camera without being 
in the room. 
If enabled, snapshots are refreshed automatically approximately 
every 5 seconds.
