This document describes the major changes in the firmware and software evident to the user for
versions 2.1 and 2.0.
New Features 2.1
Full-screen Mode
You can now maximize the video display to full screen. Simply click on the “Maximize” icon
located with the other Title Bar Controls.
Full-screen mode is also activated and deactivated using the F11 hotkey. (Other hotkeys are available
for this feature. See Online Help F1 for a full list.)
Full-screen mode includes many of the same features as the standard video panel display:
•
Drag/drop re-arrange video windows.
•
Right-click on the video windows and change camera settings.
•
Double-click on a video to switch between full-screen mode and normal mode.
•
Press the keys Alt + Tab to go to another app window. The video windows will be in the
background.
WiLife Now Supports Monitor Power Save
WiLife Command Center 2.1 now allows the monitor to enter a power save mode, though the software
will still attempt to prevent automatic sleep, as it did before.
If you would like to use your PC as a monitoring station, or keep the monitor from turning off, you can
enable this by changing your power management options. We also encourage you to disable your
screen saver if you intend to use your PC as an uninterrupted monitoring station.
To disable the monitor’s power save feature under XP:
1) Start -> Control Panel (Classic View) -> Power Options.
2) On the Power Schemes tab, change "Turn off monitor" to "Never".
3) Click OK.
To disable the monitor’s power save feature under Vista:
1) Start -> Control Panel (Classic View) -> Power Options.
2) From the links on the left, click "Choose when to turn off the display".
3) Change "Turn off the display" to "Never".
4) Click Save Changes.
Improved Ethernet HomePlug Bridge Support
The WiLife Ethernet HomePlug Bridge allows you to connect your standard WiLife
cameras (Indoor, Outdoor, or Spy) to the WiLife Command Center over the already
existing LAN – replacing the WiLife USB. The WiLife Ethernet Powerline Bridge is
perfect for larger homes or small businesses that already have a network.
The WiLife Ethernet Powerline Bridge can be used with any WiLife Retail or WiLife
Pro system.
Other WiLife Command Center Enhancements
•
Changed Command Center so it works with any HomePlug USB adapter, instead of only those
with WiLife MAC addresses.
