System Introduction
The NUUO Central Management System (NCS) is a powerful system which brings traditional central management systems
out of the control room through Internet access. The network-based key operation system can manage unlimited combinations
of analog and network cameras worldwide, via unlimited working stations in different locations. NCS is the universal solution
for large scale projects.
Client/Server Architecture
The NCS System uses a client/server architecture to manage unlimited recording systems. These send events to the NCS
Alarm Server. After filtering the events, the NCS Alarm server sends alarm logs of qualified events to an SQL Server (SQL
database) and NCS Client systems. The NCS Matrix system is controlled by NCS Client users. The NCS Client system
allows users in different locations to log in to the NCS Alarm server and, if they have the authority, to change the system
configuration.

Multiple Monitor Configuration
For a PC running the NCS Client and NCS Matrix, it is suggested that three monitors are used: one to display the Map
window and the System Configuration window, one to display the Alarm Overview window, and one to display the live
video feed matrix. This enables efficient use of the system and saves hardware costs.
PCs using multiple monitors in this way should have a Intel P35/i975x motherboard which can support two display cards.
Each display card should be the same model, to avoid hardware conflicts.

Installation
Installation
The NCS Installation CD contains the software you need to run the complete NCS system. If you are installing the system
on multiple PCs as described earlier, install the appropriate software for each PC:
For the PC running SQL Server, install SQL Server 2005 Express.
For the central server PC, install NCS Server
For client PCs, install NCS Client
For PCs displaying video matrixes, install NCS Matrix.
The following sections describe installation of each element of the NCS system.
SQL Server 2005 Express
To install SQL Server 2005 Express:
1. Insert the NCS installation CD.
2. In the Welcome to NCS window, click SQL Server 2005 Express.
If you do not have Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 and Windows Installer 3.1 installed, a message will
