When working with Axxon Next, the user must keep in mind the limitations that the developer has imposed on the system in order to ensure its operability.

No.

Limitation

1

To work with Axxon Next software the following requirements for OpenGL are to be fulfilled:

  1. Version 2.0 and higher.
  2. Availability the ARB_vertex_program, GL_EXT_blend_func_separate, GL_ARB_framebuffer_object extensions.

Extensions availability can be checked using the OpenGL Extension Viewer program (download).
This program also contains a large database of data on OpenGL support in video cards of various vendors.

2

Axxon Next Client cannot be started if the scale of all items on the screen (DPI) is over 100%.
You may have issues with Axxon Next VMS if the screen resolution is set lower than 1280*960 pixels. 

3

The Server and Client must be of the same version. If not, Axxon Next VMS may have issues.

4

For correct operation of Axxon Next VMS, the OS should use the UTF-8 locale.

5Downgrade to a previous version of Axxon Next is not allowed.
6In one LAN, two Servers with the same name are not allowed, even if they belong to different Axxon-domains.
7Maximum video frame rate in the Client is 50 fps.
8

To install Axxon Next, you must log in to Windows as an administrator.

9

For proper installation of Axxon Next, there should be no spaces at the beginning of the name of the folder which contains the installer.

10

For correct and full-feature operation of Axxon Next software, the system must not limit network activity between all Servers and Clients.
TCP and UDP access to these ports should be enabled. Otherwise, access to all ports should be allowed in the system.
For the Client to perform properly, disable unnecessary network interfaces on the Server. If you want the Server to work with only one network interface, set its gateway and mask in the network settings utility (see Network settings utility).

11

Time must be synchronized among all computers in the system (to be configured by the user).

12

If you have edge storage enabled in the system, synchronization between the Server and the IP device is necessary (see The Embedded storage object).
Lack of synchronization may lead to bad DB entries of events detected on the edge device.

13

Before installing Axxon Next, make sure the video card drivers on the computer are fully up to date.

14

NetBIOS name of a PC must match the following requirements:

  • contains only Latin, numerical and "-" characters;
  • does not exceed 15 characters in length.
15The face detection tool requires a CPU supporting SSE4.2, FMA3 or AVX2.0 instruction set.
16

The Client cannot be started on a remote desktop through the Remote Desktop Connection utility built into Windows.

17

If a computer is linked to an Active Directory domain, one of the following conditions must be met to enable disk access:

  1. Access control lists must contain only local or built-in groups and users.
  2. Create an AxxonFileBrowser user in the domain and add it to the Users group (see Installation).
    This behavior is typical only of file systems that have access permissions (for example, NTFS).
18

Hibernation mode and sleep mode are not supported. Before you switch the computer to these modes, stop the Server (see Limitations of the Axxon Next Software Package).
