General information about licensing of the VisionLabs recognition module
VisionLabs recognition module is licensed according to the following scheme:
| Module in use | Licensing scheme |
|---|
Visitor counting channel | By the number of channels |
Archive search channel | By the number of channels |
Recognition channel | By the number of faces in the database |
To use the VisionLabs recognition module in multi-threading mode, the number of faces in the database is determined as follows:
- If the number of face detection tools used is greater than or equal to the value of the CpuCoreCount registry key, then the license is purchased for the number of faces in the database, which is determined as: the required number of reference faces + the value of the CpuCoreCount key;
- If the number of face detection tools used is less than the value of the CpuCoreCount registry key, then the license is purchased for the number of faces in the database, which is determined as: the required number of reference faces + the number of face detection tools used.
For example: - If CpuCoreCount = 4, and the configuration includes four or more face detection tools, then a license for 104 reference faces must be purchased for a database with 100 reference faces;
- If CpuCoreCount = 4, and the configuration includes one face detection tool, then a license for 101 reference faces must be purchased for a database with 100 reference faces.
In both cases, the actual number of reference faces that can be contained in the database will be 100. |
Thus, the psim.sec key file is purchased for each camera in use and a certain number of faces stored in the database.
You also need to install the SDK VisionLabs and purchase an additional license from VisionLabs, which is presented in the form of a software key.
Installing the SDK of the VisionLabs recognition module
Before activating the software key, you need to install the SDK VisionLabs. To do this, download the VisionLabs LUNA SDK 5.17.0 installer from the AxxonSoft website and extract the data folder from it to <Face PSIM installation directory>\Modules64\Firserver\FaceRecognition\VisionLabs.
At the time of writing this documentation, Face PSIM uses VisionLabs LUNA SDK 5.17.0. Earlier versions of Face PSIM use SDK VisionLabs 5.10.0. |
Activation of the software key of the VisionLabs recognition module
This method of activation of the VisionLabs software key is available starting with SDK version 5.17.0. |
To activate the license of the VisionLabs recognition module, do the following:
- Request EID and ProductID from the technical support.
EID and ProductID are linked with the MAC address of the Server. If the MAC address changes, you need to request EID and ProductID again. |
- Open the following file in a text editor: C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules64\Firserver\FaceRecognition\VisionLabs\data\license.conf.
- Enter the received EID and ProductID.
<param name="EID" type="Value::String" text="received EID"/>
<param name="ProductID" type="Value::String" text="received ProductID"/> |
- Save the file: C:\Program Files (x86)\AxxonSoft\Modules64\Firserver\FaceRecognition\VisionLabs\data\license.conf.
- In the command line, run the following file as administrator: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Axxon PSIM\DetectorPack\VLSdk\gpu\FingerprintViewer.exe. You will receive the FingerPrint data.
Go to the website.
- Log in using the received EID.
- Fill in the user registration data.
- Click the Save button .
- Click the Activate button to activate the license.
- In the Activatee Email field, specify the email address to confirm the license activation. The licenseFile.v2c file with license data will be sent to the specified email address.
- In the Device FingerPrint field, specify the FingerPrint data.
- Click the Complete Activation button.
- Place the downloaded licenseFile.v2c file on the Server in the folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules64\Firserver\FaceRecognition\VisionLabs..
- Make sure the license is successfully activated. If the Server is connected to the internet, the license will be checked automatically.
If the Server doesn't have internet connection, do the following: - Do steps 2–5, 14 on the Server where the license will be used.
- Do steps 1, 6–13, 15 on any computer connected to the internet.
- Click the View License Certificate button.
- Download the license file by clicking the Save License button.
The license is activated on the Server with no internet connection. |
Activation of the software key of the VisionLabs recognition module is complete.
