Overview
TruVision Navigator is video management software that enables security-related personnel to easily and remotely gather video evidence, monitor live situations, and configure and maintain a video surveillance system that consists of UTC digital video recorders (devices), analog video cameras, network video recorders, and IP cameras. TruVision Navigator provides a more intuitive way to find and provide relevant video content. Figure 1 shows the TruVision Navigator main screen.

TruVision Navigator consists of 5 panels and several major dialogs as listed above. Panels are resizable by dragging the vertical left or right splitter bars. Arrow icons next to panel names signify the ability to hide/unhide the panel. This provides custom application layout styles depending on the activities that you want to perform. TruVision

Chapter 1: Overview
Navigator will remember your custom panel layout upon logout and restore you to that same point when you log back in.
The Navigator panel is the central administration area in the software and allows you to quickly search and access any device or camera in your system.
The Navigator features double-click or drag n’ drop capability to view cameras or devices as a whole. By right-clicking on any object in the Navigator, you will be exposed to a number of operations that can be performed on the object. These include health diagnostics, device configuration, disk analysis, properties, search, firmware uploads, and more.
This panel is permission-based, so if you do not have rights to perform certain actions, you will not see the options.
The Viewer panel allows you to view both live and recorded video from any video source in the system to verify and act on the content. It contains live or previous recorded videos that can be launched from the Notifier, Navigator, or Collector.
Users have several tile layouts to choose from when arranging the video sources. Standard tile layouts include 1×1, 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, and 5×5. We also support a Custom Tile Layout with 1 large tile and 7 smaller surrounding tiles for additional flexibility. Double-clicking in any single tile will bring that video to full screen. Double-clicking the video again will restore the video to the previous tile layout. As well, Instant Replay is available from the video tile itself by clicking on the Instant Replay icon.
If your system contains PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) cameras, the Viewer panel has mouse support for PTZ features from within the video tile. Left-click and move the mouse left\right\up and down to adjust the pan and tilt of the camera. Right-click and move the mouse up and down to allow the camera lens to zoom in and out.
The Controller panel allows you to manage video once it is loaded in the Viewer. The Controller features a toolbar, a timeline, playback controls, and stream switching capabilities. When a specific video tile is selected (blue outline around the video tile), the Controller features will affect that video tile.
The Controller toolbar allows you to select all video tiles in the viewer, zoom in and out on the timeline, center the timeline, open the PTZ control palette, perform a Go To search, and put video in live or playback. The Snapshot button allows you to take a snapshot of the current play time of a selected video tile and send it to the Collector for export. The Video button allows you to send a desired video segment (of the time range you specified with the green and red indicators) to the Collector for export.
The Controller timeline allows users to seek for video at specific points in time. Double­clicking anywhere on the timeline will automatically playback the selected video at that specific date and time. Use the current live/playback cursor (appears as a blue seek triangle icon) to seek and play the video anywhere along the timeline. Use the green and
TruVision Navigator 5.0 Service Pack 3 User Manual 3
Chapter 1: Overview
red triangle icons to mark the beginning and end of a desired video segment. Use the playback controls beneath the timeline to further manipulate playback video.
The Collector panel contains all relevant video segments, snapshots, and local recordings ready for export. From here, you can select the desired content to export to your hard drive on demand or via a schedule.
To re-open a video clip for further analysis, double-click the thumbnail and the video will launch in the Viewer. You can then manipulate the timeline to refine the clip and send it back to the Collector. To delete video clips from the Collector, click the delete icon next to the thumbnail. Rename, print, or E-mail snapshots with a right-click of the mouse on the thumbnail.
The Tasks panel affords the user one central place to monitor the tasks that have been created and scheduled in the system. These tasks include video exports, firmware upgrades, bulk configurations, database backups, and database restores. The Tasks panel provides a real-time status of the tasks in the queue, and the reason if a task was unsuccessful.
The Settings dialog allows the user to configure several options within the application. These include settings for client, server, notifications, and health diagnostics.
Client settings apply to each client station. These settings include CPU threshold control, POS activation, aspect ratio and bandwidth controls for video monitoring, and audio activation. Enable the maximum CPU threshold here to prevent your CPU from reaching 100% during video rendering. As with all applications, you will experience lockups as you reach 100% CPU.
Enable your alert sound when new device notifications are received in TruVision Navigator's Notifier.
Enable the aspect ratio for live and playback video in the Viewer. Server settings include the SMTP server settings, permission settings, custom help link
settings, and server/client URL information. Notifications settings include the network settings necessary to receive events from each
device. Also, this menu includes the e-mail notification settings as well as a filter of specific notification types.
Health diagnostics settings include a filter of diagnostics to be received, as well as e-mail settings to receive notifications of diagnostics information. Also, automatic diagnostic polling can be scheduled from this menu.
The Help dialog offers an easy to use Help function for more detailed system instructions. You can also obtain TruVision Navigator version information, copyright, and end user license agreement information here. Organizations have the ability to add their own custom Help or training link here to facilitate the adoption of the product. This menu

Chapter 1: Overview
also includes the licensing screen for TruVision SVR recorder. Please see TruVision SVR User Manual for more information on licensing.
The Notifier dialog allows you to collect and manage any notifications sent to you from the devices. You can select an alert in the Notifier panel and view the video results in the Viewer panel. You must configure your devices to send these notifications over the network via TCP or SMTP to the IP address of the TruVision Navigator Server machine. In addition, the firewall must be configured on the TruVision Navigator Server machine to accept these network notifications.
These notifications may include Alarm, Video Loss, Motion, Fan Failed, Disk Failed, User Locked at Device, Video Erased, Disk Full, Device Powered Up, and more depending on the device model.
The Services dialog shows general information on all of the TruVision Navigator services including Network Time Protocol, Diagnostic Polling, and Notification Service. This includes the service name, location, status, and the ability to start, stop, or disable the service. Standalone installations will only show the Network Time Protocol service in this dialog since the other services are embedded in Settings menu.

Chapter 2
Installation
Architecture
TruVision Navigator is made up of 3 components:
• Client
• Services
• Database
The TruVision Navigator architecture is flexible enough to allow all 3 of these components to co-exist on the same PC (i.e. a single Windows 7 machine) in small­scale environments.
As well, TruVision Navigator allows each of these 3 components to operate on separate machines (i.e. a virtual server for Services, a dedicated database machine for Database, and multiple PCs distributed on the network hosting Clients) for large- scale, distributed environments.
Installation Options
There are 2 installation options for TruVision Navigator: Standalone Model (or Direct Database Connection) - this installation option allows
the Client, the Database, and the Services to be located on the same machine. The one limitation is that no other Clients on the network can connect to the database on this machine. This installation option is ideal for small, standalone systems.
Multi-Client Model (or Traditional Client/Server) - This installation option allows the Client, the Database, and the Services to be located on the same or separate machines. This option requires a Web Service (either Microsoft’s Internet Information Services (IIS) or Cassini) for communication between the multiple Clients and the shared Database. This installation option is ideal for larger systems with many geographically dispersed users, PCs, and recording devices.
TruVision Navigator 5.0 Service Pack 3 User Manual 12
Chapter 2: Installation
Whatever installation option you choose, the core features and functions of TruVision Navigator remain the same.
You will need Administrator’s rights on the machine to install the application, but the software will be available to all users who successfully log on to a Windows account on that machine.
Languages
The following languages are supported in TruVision Navigator: Arabic, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Lithuanian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish.
After launching the TruVision Navigator Installation Setup.exe, the InstallShield Wizard will auto-detect the language setting on the PC, and if it is supported, will translate to that language. If the language detected is not supported, the InstallShield Wizard will default to English.
Upon launching the Client, TruVision Navigator will always auto-detect the language setting on the PC, and if it is supported, will translate to that language. If the language detected is not supported, the Client will default to English.
