October 26, 2022

Version 3.72.7

New Features

We added a new Multi-Camera Import Feature. Now you can import multiple cameras along with data from different locations simultaneously.

*****The multi camera import feature does not work with “Bar Code Scanner is Connected (Opticon 2001)” since the hhschools can only have one scanner connected at once.****

We have made some improvements to save time and eliminate some clicks needed to complete and prepare an order. Now the order zip file creation runs in the background allowing you to run a backup of the project, return to the project to continue some editing or, to place a subsequent order in parallel.

*****It’s important to not close hhschools while the order is being prepared in the background. If hhschools is closed during this process you will be alerted that if you close the program this will interrupt the order creation progress.*****

Once the order is done preparing or has completed uploading the you will be notified that the process has been completed.
