There is opportunity of complex selection and editing You can select and edit the parameters of video cameras in bulk for transmitting video signal through Videogate. Complex

Bulk selection of cameras is performed in the following way:

  1. Go to the settings panel of the Videogate system object and then click the Range button (1).
    Image Modified
  2. In result a dialog window Add/edit cameras will As a result, the Add/Edit Camera Objects dialog window will open.
  3. Select the required objects cameras in the left list of the Add/edit cameras window Edit Camera Objects window by clicking with the mouse and holding down the Ctrl key (1).
  4. Remove the selected cameras to the right list , by clicking the the button (2).

    Info
    titleNote.
    Right The right list contains a list of cameras, selected for transmitting the video signals through the Videogate.
    Button The button is used for back action i.e., for removing the selected cameras from the right list to the left list (2).


  5. In As a result, the selected video cameras will be displayed in the right list of the Add/edit cameras window Edit Camera Objects window (3).
  6. When If necessary select , in the right list, select the names of the required cameras for complex bulk editing of parameters (3)the parameters by clicking them with the mouse with the Ctrl key pressed.

    Note
    titleAttention!

     For For all the selected cameras the same value values of the parameters will be set.


    Info
    titleNote.
     There is no possibility to edit

    You cannot edit the

    Critical rate parameter using the Add/

    edit cameras

    Edit Camera Objects window.


  7. If it is necessary to change the video signal compression level for transmission through the Videogate, from the Compression drop-down list, select the required video signal compression level from the Compression drop-down list (4). The video signal compression level increases from 0 (no compression) to 5 (maximum compression). Selecting an empty value means that the initial compression level will be applied, the Do not change value means that the compression level of the device will be applied.

    , which significantly increases the load on the Server CPU.

    The Compression, fps, Gate, Backup archive settings belong to the

    group

    Set for cameras selected on the right group.


  8. If it is necessary to thin out the video signal for transmission through the Videogate, select the required video frame rate from the fps drop-down list (5). Selecting an empty value means that the initial frame rate will be applied, the Do not change value means that the frame rate with which the device transmits the video signal will be applied.

    Info
    titleNote.
     The given The specified fps value must be less than the frame rate of video signal’s signal digitizing by video capture card. Otherwise frame rate of video signal will be equal to the frame rate of digitizing.


  9. In case, if when video signal form from the selected cameras is to video camera should be received from the other another Videogate object, then from the Gate drop-down list, select the name of this object from the Gate dropdown list (6).
  10. In case, when the video signal from the selected camera has to be transmitted received from the selected cameras from the Backup archive  Backup archive object, select from the Backup archive dropdown drop-down list, select the name of this object (7).
  11. If it is necessary to limit the storage time of the Videogate archive, enter the maximum number of hours of storage in the Store no more than (h) field (9). The parameter must be set according to the same rules as for the main archive—see Configuring video camera archive depth.
  12. If it is necessary to change the video signal compression algorithm for transmission through the Videogate, select the required compression algorithm from the Compressor drop-down list (10). If a compressor is specified, it is necessary that a value be selected in the Compression list (4). If a compression level is specified but Compressor is not selected, then the Motion Wavelet compressor is used. Selecting an empty value means that the initial algorithm will be used, the Do not change value means that the algorithm that is used for recording on the device will be used.
  13. To save the set parameters, click the Set for cameras selected on the right button (8).
  14. In As a result, the set parameters will be displayed in the right list of the Add/edit camerasEdit Camera Objects window (3).
  15. Repeat steps 6-13 11 for complex bulk editing of all the required cameras.
  16. To save all the changes and close the Add/edit camerasEdit Camera Objects window, click the Apply changes and close button (11).
  17. The given specified settings will be displayed on the settings panel of the Videogate object (2).
  18. To save the given changes, click the Apply button (3).

Complex Bulk selection of cameras is completed.
