NetVu Observer

NetVu Observer software is a dedicated application that offers single-site and multi-site control allowing an Operator to simultaneously monitor and control video from one image server or from several distributed sites. The single-site functionality allows multiple cameras from the same image server to be viewed, in a multiscreen format, in Live or playback mode. This ensures the Operator is aware of all potential events that may occur within the ‘site’ they are responsible for monitoring. This functionality can be compared to an installation using analogue monitors and a keyboard but with the advantage of locating the monitoring station anywhere on the network, therefore removing the limitations of a conventional wired system, i.e. maximum distances. The software includes the necessary control functions for monitoring a video surveillance system for controlling of PTZ cameras, establishing audio connections, camera switching, etc. It also allows a set of cameras to be saved as a display preset. These sets can then be programmed to sequence automatically at a pre-programmed time interval.

To enhance NetVu ObserVer software, additional functionality includes multi-site monitoring capabilities. This is an ideal feature for central monitoring stations where video from multiple sites is routed across a network connection to a centralised location, providing Live and Recorded images from numerous sites (up to thirty-six) that can be viewed and controlled at a single location.

The software provides all the necessary controls required for a Central Monitoring application and with the introduction of ‘drag and drop’, the application now becomes even more intuitive for the Operator and allows access to cameras with a single key command.
