Streamline centralized license management and robust remote system access via enhanced web client
WESTFORD, MA. October 21, 2016 –– Tyco Security Products introduces version 4.9 of the American Dynamics’ victor Video Management System and VideoEdge network video recorders (NVR), with more powerful, intuitive features designed to put greater system functionality and key information in the hands of security system operators and administrators.
License management for VideoEdge NVRs has been streamlined within victor 4.9 with a new centralized licensing option, greatly reducing the time installers spend updating system licenses. Using the victor Application Server License Manager, administrators can conveniently and easily assign and reallocate licenses for cameras and analytics throughout the entire enterprise system from a single license file.
VideoEdge now automatically configures and optimizes second stream video transmission to reduce bandwidth usage within victor for streams displayed on mobile devices or other constrained environments. This also enables motion detection to be configured automatically out of the box. Automatic motion detection enables Smart Search capabilities and Smart Streaming so users will always have these capabilities available to them without additional setup. Additionally, VideoEdge offers video analytics support for Illustra Pro IP mini-dome cameras.
Push to talk audio allows an operator to transmit an audio message recorded on their victor client to one or more VideoEdge NVRs on the network for output on a public address system. This new feature gives administrators the capability to deliver critical communications during time-sensitive events more quickly and to a wider audience.
Among the key features added to this latest version of victor web is Personnel Activity Monitoring, which monitors system admits and rejects in real time. The easy-to-navigate interface enables administrators to easily view and edit personnel-related credentials and clearances. Cardholder images can be displayed based on granted or rejected access or other events for easier investigations or reporting.
Other improvements to the victor web client also put more powerful and intuitive remote VMS management capabilities into the hands of security system users. Additions include:
