If you are a Vision customer, you can view the video files your camera devices have returned to CalAmp using multiple methods. You can find a list of all your available videos on the Video Library screen's Video Events tab (see Viewing Your Videos), or you can view them on the Tracking screen, as shown in the two sections in this article. To see an asset's recently recorded video events, go to the first section below; to view past videos, see the second section, "Viewing Past Video Events."
