The Recordings and Sessions field allows System Administrators to configure essential components such as the Annotation Library, Simulators, and Applications (e.g., LLEAP) to ensure seamless interaction with the SimCapture Enterprise Cloud System.

Things to Know Before You Begin

• Only System Administrators can access and configure this area.
• Simulators and applications should be installed during the technical build.
• For device-related issues, contact Technical Support.

Annotation Library Overview

The Annotation Library in SimCapture serves as a centralized repository for all available annotations used to tag sessions or insert into scenarios for tracking and reporting purposes. Annotations can be uncategorized or organized into categories for better structure and usability. They are reportable by scenario and play a key role in identifying gaps in educational delivery. If an annotation does not exist in the library, it must be created and saved before it can be added to a scenario. In a simulation’s output, annotations are particularly valuable because they can be used to mark specific events, data points, or regions of interest, drawing attention to crucial findings and enhancing the clarity of performance analysis. This functionality ensures that educators and administrators can systematically track important occurrences and leverage detailed reporting to improve training outcomes.

Add an Annotation to the Library

1. Go to Annotation Library under the Recordings and Sessions field.
2. Click Edit in the upper-right corner.
3. (Optional) Create a Group to categorize the annotation.
4. Scroll to the bottom and click Add Annotation.
5. Click Save to finalize.

Customize Annotation Appearance

1. Click Edit next to the annotation.
2. Choose an icon and color.
3. Click Save.

Annotations used in sessions cannot be deleted.

Create a New Annotation Group

1. Go to Annotation Library under the Recordings and Sessions field.
2. Click Edit.
3. Click Add Annotation Groups at the top.
4. Enter the group name and click Save.

You can now:

• Add annotations to the group
• Drag and drop annotations between groups
• Collapse, expand, or reorder groups for better visibility

Recording Devices

Recording devices are configured during the technical installation. To review device status:

• Navigate to the Recording Devices screen.

For technical issues, contact Technical Support.

Simulators

Simulators are also configured during the technical build. You can manually add simulators if needed.

Add a Simulator

1. Click Simulators under the Recordings and Sessions field.
2. Fill in:
   • Name
   • Company
   • Model
3. Enter the IP address (use 1.1.1.1 if not directly connected).
4. Add any notes.
5. Click Save.
