Desktop Live View

What is Desktop Live View?

Desktop Live View gives real-time views of all connected desktops for monitoring and reporting purposes.

To have access to Desktop Live View, the XGate Sensor must be installed on the machine. For more details, please see the XGate Sensor section.

Also be aware that the other computers in your network must have the XGate sensor installed if you wish to see them within the Desktop Live View program.

Analogy

A good real life comparison with Desktop Live View is the use of CCTV (Closed-circuit television). CCTV allows you to observe and monitor events where the cameras are in place. In the case of XGate, your cameras are the XGate Sensor.

Starting Desktop Live View

To start the Desktop Live View program:

1) On your system tray, right click the XGate Sensor Icon. This will bring up a menu.

2) Left click Desktop Live View. This will open the Desktop Live View program.
