Logically organizing cameras by Groups

June 30th, 2006

When the Exacq team initially set out to design the exacqVision system, they stumbled upon a brilliant idea–make the system useful to the user! This “idea” is implemented in the use of Groups and Views.

While it may be convenient for the administrator or the security integrator to see cameras organized by the servers they are connected to, users need to get to cameras in the way that makes the most sense to their organization. A security professional may want to have a Group that includes all cameras from the first floor, or all outside cameras, or all cameras from a particular office location (see image at right), etc. He or she does not care which exacqVision server they are connected to as long as they can access them quickly and easily from the client software.
