The IP address of the Network Bridge is configured as “DHCP” in Factory Default
conditions.
Assign an IP address in a different logical network range, e.g. 192.168.0.99.
Connected cameras should be in the same address range for example:
camera1: 192.168.0.100; camera2: 192.168.0.101 etc.
In case you need more Ethernet ports for your camera network you can connect a
switch on LAN3 Ethernet interface.
The network connection „PoE-Switch“ and „camera network“ are assembled to this
network bridge and should not be changed.
Please note that the cameras should be in a different IP address network range
than the server and clients.

NVR Software - General information

2.2 Module overview
2.2.1 Administration services
The services SeeTec5_ENT (SeeTec EntityManager), SeeTec5_EVT (SeeTec
EventManager) and SeeTec5_ALARM (SeeTec AlarmManager) provide powerful
services for the central management of the SeeTec Installation along with the
MaxDB database. If suitable hardware is used, up to 30 alarms per second can be
managed.
Applications with a large number of users or resources to manage require a
powerful user management that meets various criteria. SeeTec
AuthorizationManager (SeeTec5_AUTH) satisfies the following criteria to a great
extent and is thus an ideal solution for the management of large installations:
Encrypted and secure transmission of passwords via the network must be
ensured, especially for external Internet connections.
The client interface and functions available to the user need to automatically
adjust individually to the given user rights.
The system must allow for easy and transparent management of a large
number of different users (maybe with high fluctuation of employees).
Multiple users can often be grouped due to identical requirements with
respect to access permissions. SeeTec 5 provides a superordinate group
concept to reduce the required administration effort to a minimum.
Log-in authentication of a client must be performed quickly to avoid waiting
times for the user.
2.2.2 CameraManagement (SeeTec5_CM)
The management of all cameras involved is the core of each video surveillance
solution. Network cameras and video servers feature much higher complexity and
heterogeneity than analog technologies. Reasons for this include:
The analog signal is supplied in PAL to ensure a standard image format.
Network cameras of different manufacturers use different image formats
(JPEG, H.264, MPEG-4, and other proprietary formats). Some of these
formats must be processed differently by the software and also increase the
integration effort and render client visualization more complex.
The network infrastructure used can reach from basic local network
configurations up to broad Internet or VPN networks.
In comparison to older versions, CameraManagement better pursues the crossmanufacturer and cross-format integration of different hardware.
NVR Software - General information
24
Each CameraManagement module is able to manage up to 250 cameras, depending
on the required image rates and the operating system in use. Using the module on
multiple computers multiplies the number of cameras and can also support very
large installations with up to 5000 cameras. Compared to frame grabber cards of
analog systems, the performance in terms of image throughput is considerably
higher.
2.2.3 MultimediaDatabase (SeeTec5_MDB)
Even small installations with few cameras require the database to handle a level of
image throughput that cannot be fulfilled with traditional SQL databases such as
DB2 or Oracle.
For this reason, SeeTec has developed a dedicated MultimediaDatabase with
currently unmatched performance. Features of this database include:
Hardware and platform independent implementation (Java
®
). Use with
almost every hardware, from commercially available PCs up to midframe
systems.
The file-based approach supports the use of local file systems such as RAID
or SAN / NAS systems.
Throughput on a typical PC system with IDE boards amounts to approx.
30 MB/sec. Throughput can be extended to more than 50 MB/sec. if powerful
server hardware is used.
2.2.4 Extension services (SeeTec5_EXT, SeeTec5_AV,
SeeTec5_AVExport)
The SeeTec5_EXT service is used for connecting industry solutions and modules
(license plate recognition, point of sale connection, etc.).
The SeeTec5_AV service is required for the SeeTec motion detection.
The SeeTec5_AVExport service is responsible for transmitting an image or video
sequence in case of an alarm.
NVR Software - General information
25
2.3 System requirements
Performance requirements of SeeTec server services primarily depend on the video
volume transferred and/or the storage hardware used. Basically, Intel® processors
should be used because they deliver much better performance with SeeTec than
other comparable AMD processors.
Dimensioning of hardware for SeeTec client concerns primarily the processor type
and its performance. We recommend Intel® processors for optimal performance. At
least 512 MB free RAM must be available to the SeeTec client as socket. An
additional 25 MB RAM are recommended for each camera to be visualized.
Please take into account that the hardware requirements greatly depend on the
respective configuration.

3.1 Installation information
Important
Since several VB scripts are used for installation, we recommend
deactivating any virus scanner during the installation procedure.
SeeTec 5 may not be installed on a compressed drive as this may
cause problems with the MaxDB. Also, do not compress drives with
an existing SeeTec 5 installation.
You are asked while installing, whether the ports used by SeeTec
should be opened in the Microsoft® Windows® Firewall. Confirm this
request with Yes. If you use the software firewalls of other
manufacturers, you must open the port manually, see also chapter
Firewalls and SeeTec 5 (page 177).
During the installation process DirectX is installed. If there is no
previous installation of DirectX, the system may reboot after
completing the installation. DirectX is required for joystick control as
well as MPEG-4 / H.264 display. If an error message is displayed
that DirectX could not be installed, you can install DirectX at later
point in time. You will find the setup file in the 3rdPartyTools
directory on SeeTec-DVD. Use that version only.
An error message may appear during DirectX installation on a
Windows Server® 2003, it can be ignored.
Software products of the company Symantec (Norton FirewallTM,
NortonTM Internet Security, etc.) should not be used on the
SeeTec 5 server because these programs interrupt the
communication between server services.
Use of webguards, behavior surveillance (e.g. of virus scanners), is
not supported.
