The Basic settings tab
№ | Parameter | Method of setting the parameter value | Parameter description | Representation | Default value | Value range |
1 | The Identification number* | Automatically | Displays the identification number of the Web server object in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | Sequence of numbers | Depends on the number of the Web server objects in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | From 1 to 2147483647 |

3 | The Disable | Set the checkbox | Disables the Web server object in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the Web server object is disabled and isn't used Clear—the Web server object is enabled and used |
4 | The Computer | Select the value from the list | Sets the Computer parent object of the system with distributed architecture to which the given Web server object belongs | Names of the Computer objects registered in the system | Name of the Computer parent object | Depends on the number of the Computer objects in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture |
The HTTP-server group | ||||||
5 | The Port number | Enter the value in the field | Sets the number of the port used by the HTTP server (used for video surveillance via a web browser, including through the internet) | Sequence of numbers | 80 | Any valid unused port numbers. The number of ports is determined by the system administrator |
The Number of connections | Enter the value in the field | Sets the maximum possible number of connections to the server via the Web server module. Each request to view the video signal from each camera and each request to control all PTZ devices, regardless of their number, is considered as a connection | Sequence of numbers | 100 | Any integer.

The Key | Enter the value in the field | Sets the path to the folder of the key for data transmission via the HTTPS protocol | Latin alphabet, Cyrillic and service characters | C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules\SSL\ssl_internal.key | Depends on the location of data encryption key when you transmit data via the HTTPS protocol | |
The Certificate | Enter the value in the field | Sets the path to the folder of the certificate for data transmission via the HTTPS protocol | Latin alphabet, Cyrillic, and service characters | C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules\SSL\ssl_internal.cert | Depends on the location of certificate file when you transmit data via the HTTPS protocol | |
The Port number | Enter the value in the field | Sets the number of the port used for the HTTPS server (used for video surveillance in a web browser and via the internet) | Sequence of numbers | 443 | Any available unused port numbers. The number of ports is determined by the system administrator | |
Out of the group | ||||||
7 | The Default user | Select the value from the list | Sets the user with permissions and authority to conduct the video surveillance from the Remote workstation using the Web server module | Names of the users registered in the system and added to the permissions | NA | Depends on the number of users registered in Axxon PSIM |
8 | The ECHD translation | Set the checkbox | Enables the use of the HTTP requests used for integration with ECHD | Boolean type | Clear | Set—requests used for integration with ECHD are executed for the Camera objects on the basis of which the ECHD channel objects are created Clear—requests used for integration with ECHD aren't executed |
9 | The Use NAT address checkbox | Set the checkbox | Enables the router address substitution in the ECHD requests | Boolean type | Clear | Set—when you request the URL streams via the HTTP API, the IP address of the router specified in the settings panel of the RTSP Server object is substituted in the response to the request Clear—when you request the URL streams via the HTTP API, the IP address of the server in its local network is returned in response to the request |
The List of cameras tab
№ | Parameter | Method of setting the parameter value | Parameter description | Representation | Default value | Value range |
10 | The Range | Click the button | Opens the window for bulk addition of cameras (see Bulk selecting and configuring cameras for the Web-server) | NA | NA | NA |
11 | The Clear | Click the button | Clears the list of the added cameras | NA | NA | NA |
12 | The Add all | Click the button | Adds to the list of cameras all Camera objects created in the system | NA | NA | NA |
13 | The Number | Select the value from the list | Sets the number of the camera the video from which is transmitted to the remote workstation via the Web server module | Identifiers of the Camera objects registered in the system | NA | Depends on the number of cameras in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture |
The Camera | Select the value from the list | Sets the name of the camera the video from which is transmitted to the remote workstation via the Web server module | Names of the Camera objects registered in the system | NA | Depends on the number of cameras in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | |
The Video stream | Select the value from the list | Sets the number of the video stream used for displaying in the interface of the Web server module | Numbers of video streams enabled on the camera and the By default value | By default | Depends on the number of the camera enabled streams | |
The Live video | Select the value from the list | Sets the source of live video that is displayed in the interface of the Web server module | Available means to get live video | server | Server—live video is received from the server to which the camera is connected. Videogate—live video is received through the videogate. Note. If a camera isn't configured to transmit video through the videogate, this item is unavailable in the list | |
The Archive | Select the value from the list | Sets the source of the archive video that is displayed in the interface of the Web server module | Available means to get archive video | server |
