Multimedia are electronic images that have been uploaded against any of the events linked to the currently selected anomalies. Anomaly records inherit all multimedia images from the events associated with them.

Multimedia items are displayed as thumbnails on the right side of the ANOMALIES screen for the anomaly or anomalies that you have selected.
