NetVu ObserVer
Introduction
Dedicated Micros NetVu ObserVer video management software allows users to seamlessly view
distributed images from any “NetVu Connected” product, such as SD Advanced, EcoSense, CamVu
IP Cameras or the DV-IP Range.
MULTIPLE SITE MANAGEMENT
Its site tree facility allows servers and individual cameras to be accessed quickly, and the inclusion
to view multiple sites simultaneously makes the management of any CCTV installation more efcient
and responses to events even quicker.
RVRC SUPPORT
NetVu ObserVer also includes features that make it capable of supporting RVRC (Remote Video
Response Centre) operation. These include auto event distribution to multiple user stations, event
closure characterisation, session management to enable multiple events from a single site to be
handled as a single alarm session, and report generation capabilities to enable both billing and
maintenance management.
SIMULTANEOUS VIEWING STREAMS
Built-in MPEG-4 support provides simultaneous viewing of both JPEG and MPEG-4 video streams,
allowing the user to optimise bandwidth usage on constrained networks. A straight forward drag and
drop GUI, together with saved screen views provide the user with an easy to use viewing solution,
offering a seamless single user interface to all NetVu Connected products.
NetVu ObserVer is available as a download from the Dedicated Micros website and is included with

NetVu ObserVer
Features and Functions
NetVu ObserVer software is a dedicated application that offers single-site and multi-site control
allowing an Operator to simultaneously monitor and control video from one image server or from
several distributed sites.
The single-site functionality allows multiple cameras from the same image server to be viewed, in
a multiscreen format, in Live or playback mode. This ensures the Operator is aware of all potential
events that may occur within the ‘site’ they are responsible for monitoring. This functionality can
be compared to an installation using analogue monitors and a keyboard but with the advantage
of locating the monitoring station anywhere on the network, therefore removing the limitations of a
conventional wired system, i.e. maximum distances.
The software includes the necessary control functions for monitoring a video surveillance system for
controlling PTZ cameras, establishing audio connections, camera switching, etc. It also allows a set
of cameras to be saved as a display preset. These presets can then be programmed to sequence
automatically at a pre-programmed time interval.
To enhance NetVu ObserVer software, additional functionality includes multi-site monitoring
capabilities. This is an ideal feature for central monitoring stations where video from multiple sites is
routed across a network connection to a centralised location. This provides for Live and Recorded
images from numerous sites (up to thirty-six) that can be viewed and controlled at a single location.
The software provides all the necessary controls required for a Central Monitoring application and
with the introduction of ‘drag and drop’, the application now becomes even more intuitive, allowing
Operators to access cameras with a single key command.
Each event that comes in from a site opens an alarm session, if subsequent events come in from
that site before it is closed they join that session. Sessions are automatically served to operators
logged into the Event Distribution Point. Operators can view replay and live images from the site
quickly to be able to respond to activities on the site. All the events are logged in an SQL database,
and video from each session is linked to the alarm log, providing a clear audit trail.
Users are then required to close and characterise the events prior to closing the session, thereby
enabling a compliant BS8418 audit trail.
Reports from the database can be created using standard database tools to enable bespoke
solutions for customer management.
NetVu ObserVer enables access to the event lists that are stored on the image server. These les
are where all logged alarms, VMD incidents and system changes are stored allowing the Operator
quick and easy access to any event video recordings that are saved on the image server.
The following diagram shows how NetVu ObserVer software can be integrated in a Central
Monitoring system, with access and control to any of the image servers that are part of the NetVu
Connected product range.
Dedicated Micros has also taken the complete system integration one step further to allow new and
existing systems to be monitored from a central monitoring station. NetVu ObserVer supports the
ability to view and control the following Dedicated Micros products:
Note: The functionality available to the Operator will vary depending on which of the above (NetVu
Connected or existing) is being controlled, refer to the Operational Controls section of this
manual for details.

NetVu ObserVer
Network Options
Set Network Options The ‘Network Options’ section determines the behaviour of the
network connection between the PC running ObserVer and the
image servers.
Set Network Timeout This is the time in seconds that the application will wait to receive
a response from an image server. If a response is not received
within this time period, the time out image will be displayed
identifying to the Operator that communication with the requested
image server has not been successful.
Play with Frame Drop? NetVu Connected devices will transmit recorded images (across
the network) in real time. Where the remote network connection is
limited, it is possible to instruct the image server to drop playback
images to accommodate the speed on the network link. This
option allows the system to maintain a real time display by not
transmitting every image.
Include MPEG4 P_Frames
MPEG format uses I frames to encode a complete frame of video,
in Fast Forward?
then a number of P frames that record the difference between
the previous frame and the current one. This cuts the amount
storage required. By default, the server will not send P Frames to
ObserVer when fast forwarding.
HTTP Proxy Details A proxy server acts as an intermediary between clients and other
servers, validating and ltering the requests before either passing
them to the relevant server or serving cached information back to
the requestor. It can also be used to maintain anonymity, log and
audit usage, and scan content for malware or data leakage. A proxy
server that does not lter or validate requests acts as a gateway.
Transcode Proles Transcoding allows a remote viewer connecting via a slow link to
set a lower playback resolution to achieve higher frame rates, or
to minimise bandwidth use. New Transcode proles can be added
using the plus (+) button at the bottom of the panel.

Network Settings
Limit Bandwidth When the Operators workstation is located remotely from the
image server or a limitation has been imposed to bandwidth
available for video, it is possible to set the speed of network
transmission which will ensure the data is transmitted at the
limited speed. The options available are:
Unlimited
Default setting when the image server is connected to the same
LAN as the PC running the ObserVer application. These settings
would be used in applications where the bandwidth available for
the video images is not restricted.
512, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16 or 8KB/s
These settings can be used to limit the speed of the network
connection, this is useful in applications where bandwidth is an
issue.
Connect using WAN Mode Identies the number of images that are buffered in the image
server. The normal setting is 3, selecting WAN will automatically
change this to 1. This is more suitable when viewing images
across a slow speed link and will mean that when switching
between cameras, images from the new camera will not need to
wait for the buffer to empty before sending new video images.
Initial Connection Settings It is possible to select parameters that will be applied when
making an initial connection to the image server.
Start on Camera This identies the rst display camera, i.e. if a single display is
selected this is the camera that will be viewed. If a multi-screen
display is selected, this is the rst camera that will be displayed
and all consecutive (enabled) cameras will be displayed in the
remaining multi-screen segments.
Use Layout This option identies the screen display mode that will used when
this server is selected from the site tree. The options are Single,
Four Way, Nine Way and Sixteen Way.
Resolution (Single, Quad, Other) Identies the resolution of the images that will be transmitted
to the application from the image server in Live and Playback
mode. This uses the ‘Live Transmission Proles’ setting on
the image server. This setting should take into account the
network connection available between the image server and the
monitoring location, by default this should be; Single Resolution:
High. Quad Resolution: Medium. Resolution Of Other Layouts:
Low. The Live Transmission Prole is on a per camera basis.
Request Image format NetVu Connected devices support JPEG and MPEG-4
compression (default setting - MPEG-4). This setting selects the
transmission format that a site will use by default.
Note: By using conditional image updating, MPEG-4 provides high quality images at a lower bit
rate and would be more appropriate for systems where the network connection between
the image server and ObserVer application is limited. JPEG uses full frame update and
provides the best evidential integrity.
Transcode Settings This allows you to set the Transcoding that will be applied to the
image stream from this server, using the Transcoding proles
available in Options->Network Options-> Transcoding Proles.
Request Appendices This is an advanced conguration and allows text to be appended
to image requests. This is used in retail applications where
displayed text data is from tills or ATM’s and is appended to the
text stream.
