4.3 Configuring the structure

Main window >

Maps and Structure

On the Maps and Structure page, you configure the Logical Tree.

The Logical Tree is used in the Operator Client to control cameras and other devices.

Use the User Groups page to customize this tree for each user group that can access the Operator Client. In the Operator Client only those parts of the Logical Tree are displayed which are permitted for the user group.

Notice!

If you move a group of devices in the Logical Tree, these devices loose their permission settings. You must set the permissions in the User Groups page again.

You can arrange all the devices of your system according to your requirements. For example, you can add all cameras of one part of a building to a corresponding folder.

You can integrate maps into your structure. On these maps you can place cameras or other devices which helps the user to localize the devices. You can only import 2D DWF files.

On a map, you can create links to other maps so that the user can click from one map to a linked one.

4.3.1 Configuring the Logical Tree

Main window >

Maps and Structure

Main window >

Maps and Structure

You can add devices, resource files and folders to the Logical

Tree. Devices are listed in the Device Tree and you can drag any level of the Device Tree to the Logical Tree.

A resource file can be a site map, document, Web file, audio file, a Command Script, or a camera sequence file.

A site map is a 2D DWF file that you can add to the Logical Tree.

Adding a map to the Logical Tree, creates a map folder in which you can organize the logical devices that are specific to the map.

A folder allows you to further organize devices in the Logical Tree.

When you start the Configuration Client for the first time, the Logical Tree is empty.

If a user group does not have the permission to access a device (e.g., a camera), the device is not being displayed on the map or in the Logical Tree.

You can add the following items from the Device Tree or the Logical Tree to a map:

- Cameras

- Relays

- Inputs

- Documents

- Command Scripts

- Camera sequences

Adding an item to a map creates a hot spot on the map.

When you add an item to a map folder in the Logical Tree, it is also displayed on the upper left corner of the map. When you add an item to a map, it is also added under the corresponding map node in the Logical Tree of the Operator Client.

To configure the Logical Tree you perform some of or all the following steps several times.

To configure the Logical Tree:

1.

Click to add folders according to your needs.

1. Drag devices from the Device Tree to the appropriate folders.

You can select multiple devices by pressing the CTRL- or the SHIFT-key.

3.

Click to add resource files to your structure.

4.

Select a folder and click to add maps under the selected folder.

1. Right-click a folder and click Assign Map to assign a map to the selected folder.

6.

Select a folder and click to add a Client Command Script under the selected folder.

7.

Select a folder and click - to add a document under the selected folder.

8.

Select a folder and click to add a camera sequence under the selected folder.

1. Drag devices from the Logical Tree or the Device Tree to a map to locate them.

You can add an item only once in a map but you can add it to several locations in the Logical Tree and to several maps.

4.4 Configuring schedules

Main window > Schedules

There are two schedule types available:

- Recording Schedules

- Task Schedules

You can configure a maximum of 10 different Recording

Schedules in the Recording Schedule Table. In these segments the cameras can behave differently. For example, they can have different frame rate and resolution settings (to be configured in

the Cameras and Recording page). In every point in time,

exactly one Recording Schedule is valid. There are no gaps and no overlaps.

You configure Task Schedules for scheduling various events which can occur in your system (to be configured in the Events page).

The schedules are used in other pages of the Configuration Client:

- Cameras and Recording page

Used to configure recording.

- Events page

Used to determine when events cause logging, alarms, or execution of Command Scripts.

- User Groups page

Used to determine when the members of a user group can log on.

4.5 Configuring stream quality settings

Main window > Cameras and Recording >

Stream Quality Settings dialog box

Notice!

For XFM4 encoders configure the maximum bit rate with the value of the target bit rate plus 10%. The maximum bit rate is used when a scene is busy and contains motion.

Notice!

Bosch VMS uses the two streams in dual streaming encoders as follows:

VRM recording and local storage: Stream 2 is used for Live, stream 1 is used for all recording modes.

ARM based firmware: Stream 2 can also be used for recording. The compression achieved is dependent on the stream quality settings, the image complexity, and the level of motion in the scene. With these interdependencies, it is possible to over-specify encoder performance. For example, with a highly complex scene with high motion, the encoder may not be able to deliver 4 CIF full frame rate on both streams simultaneously. Refer to your encoder guidelines to help estimate the best settings for your conditions.
