Introduction
Product Overview
ACTi ENRSeries (hereafter referred to as ENR) is a compact and reliable multi-channel
standalone NVR. It features a stable embedded Linux operating system and capabilities of
supporting mega-pixel resolution H.264 streaming, an HDMI output for local display, PTZ
control, scheduled / event-triggered / event speed-up recording, event management,
synchronized playback, time / event-based playback search and video bookmarks. Its smart
Setup Wizard and intuitive user interface allow the system installer to enjoy effortless
installation experience, while making it easy for new users to get acquainted with the
operation by first-time use. Other than the local client, the remote PC client may access the
ENR system simultaneously, and experience user-friendly web interface customized for
browser-based operations.
ENR Server / Client Architecture
In a video surveillance system architecture, ENR serves as service provider, aimed to run
24/7 non-stop a video management service for clients. An ENR Client makes requests for
monitoring video streams or playing back recordings of ENR.
There are two types of ENR clients: Local Client and Remote Client. A client, connecting
from whether a remote computer or from local, will be offered the same functionalities of
ENR.
Local Client: In the local site, the client user directly operates ENR by connecting an HDMI
monitor and a USB mouse to the physical ENR.
Remote Client: Over the TCP/IP network, the Remote Client communicates with ENR
through HTTP Protocol. This client user will have to use a computer with Internet Explorer
to access the ENR web interface, without the need of installing any client program
beforehand. Logging in to ENR is as simple as visiting a website.
