New Features and Improvements

  1. Introduced the Central Control Server. It integrates multiple Control Servers into a unified system. Functions of the Central Control Server are almost identical to ordinary Control Servers (monitoring, live video viewing, still frames and video downloading, reporting) with some limitations.   
  2. An operator can now initiate a custom "sustained" alarm status. Custom "sustained" alarm statuses are represented by horizontal lines on the Log Panel, as is the case with Camera Off and Connection Lost alarms. 
  3. Improved Archive Search interface object. The video request dialog now includes "Export to AVI" parameter. This parameter allows to select video format and codec for the exported video:
    • Not Used: video is exported as an archive containing directories and files from the VIDEO folder.
    • Source Format: video is exported into .AVI file without being transcoded.
    • Xvid: video is exported into Xvid-coded .AVI file.
    • DivX: video is exported into DivX-coded .AVI file.
    • X264: video is exported into X264-coded .AVI file.
      In Agent of Control, re-coded video is exported using the AviExport.run module. You have to install AviExport.run module version 4.10.5.3776 or higher, and the codecs you plan to use for exporting videos. In Agent of Control versions lower than 11.0.1520, the "Export to AVI" parameter is forced to "Not Used" value. 
  4. In Agent of Control, you can now output small videos along with their relevant alarm events data via the dedicated "Export to AVI" setting. 
  5. Additional workplace configuration tool now includes "AVI-files Player" setting. 
  6. To establish failover, you can now backup all data transferred from the Agent of Control to the backup Control Server. 
  7. Improved Monitoring Reports interface object. You can now set "Show Comment" parameter for System Failures and Alarms report types. Check this option to display  the comment entered by operator into the "Reaction to Alarm" window during the alarm confirmation. 
  8. Introduced new ordering of events in "Reaction to Alarm" and "Event Log" windows. By default, events are now ordered by time of occurring: newer events are displayed at the top of the list. 
  9. Improved Archive Search interface object. The Object Selection window now includes "Fast Search" area where you can enter an ID or name of an object of interest. 
  10. In the context menu, now you can choose to play live and recorded video from sites and facilities. To bring on screen all camera videos from the specified Partition of Control, select "All Cameras of Partition of Control" from the context menu. Out of all cameras created in Agent of Control, only cameras specified in Partition of Control settings will be displayed. 
  11. The Agent of Control has now an enhanced form for adding/removing events for Monitoring. Along with selected object type and its relevant event, internal IDs are displayed that can be used in scripts and other applications. 
  12. You can now restrict operator's access to camera menu positions, CamMonitor buttons and HID controls. 
  13. Log Panel can now be displayed in a light color scheme. 
  14. Added an option to set a path to a folder where videos are exported to from the live/recorded footage viewing tile. 
  15. For the Monitoring interface object, you can now set "Video Stream Speed, FPS" parameter not only for live video but also for recorded footage. This requires CamMonitor component's version no less than 4.11.0.1766. 
  16. Added a new object visualization mode in Control Panel and Owners Panel. If the time since the last DB update exceeds 30 minutes, all objects in Control Panel and Owners Panel become diagonally hatched. This is a visual indication of a potential issue with database updates. 

Bug Fixes

  1. Fixed an issue of non-displaying the number of cameras for an object in the Log Panel. This issue occurred if the video export path was set to a disconnected network disk.
  2. Fixed an issue with resuming video downloads.
  3. Fixed a bug that led to incorrect download status display in "Search in Archive" interface object.
  4. Fixed a bug that caused jittering of the Log Panel while scrolling horizontally with less than 8 columns visible.
  5. Fixed a bug that prevented changed IP address of Agent of Control from being recorded into the database at the Control Server.
  6. A number of minor bugs fixed.
