Hi, everyone. Mike, from CCTV Camera Pros here. In this video, I'm going to show you
how you can monitor multiple security camera locations using the Viewtron NVMS software.
NVMS stands for Network Video Management Software. And basically it's included with all of our
Viewtron NVRs, DVRs and IP cameras. And it can connect to multiple DVRs, NVRs and IP cameras,
and they can be at separate locations. So for example, if you're a business owner
and you have multiple locations, and at your central office where you are,
you want to monitor all those locations from one central monitor or from your PC,
that's what the NVMS software is for. So in this video, I'm going to show you how I connected to
the system we have here at CCTV Camera Pros and also my home security camera system. And then I'm
going to build multiple views in the app, one view consisting of cameras at both locations, and then
individual views consisting of just the cameras at my house and just the cameras at the office.
Here's the Viewtron VMS software on my MacBook. And on this configuration screen under resource
management, this is where I have the two NVRs configured. So I'm going to click on that plus
button to create a new live view and expand the monitoring points. I have my monitoring points
broken up into home and office, and I can simply just drag the cameras that I want a part of this
view onto the grid. So I'm going to drag the front door at my house, then the front door at
the office, and then a view of... Oh, that was my front door again. So let me get rid of that one.
What I meant to do was get the front yard at my house, my driveway, and then the parking lot in
front of our warehouse. So two cameras from my home security camera system and two cameras from
the office. And if I want to see any of those cameras in full screen view, I can double click
on them. And if I double click again, then it brings me back to the four camera view.
So next I'm going to create another live view. And then this time I'm going to just make this
live view consist of cameras from my home security camera system. So I'm going to drag four cameras
over from my house into this new live view. And by the way, I'm doing all four camera views,
but you can do 4, 8, 16, 25, 36, even all the way up to 100 cameras on a single screen.
So I'm going to set up one more live view and this one's going to consist of cameras only at the
office. So I'm going to drag four cameras from the office camera system over into this new live view.
And now I have three different live views set up: a combo of my home system and business,
and then individual live views consisting of just the home system and just the business system.
I want to rename these, so I'm going to go into this view tab. I'm going to get rid of view one,
because I didn't use it, but I'll modify that live view two and rename that home,
office. And then I'll rename the home view, just home.
And then I'll rename the live security camera view of the office, office. So now you could see those
tabs up top are all renamed. And whenever I want to view any of the locations or the combo view,
I just click on the live view and it switches to that view in real time.
Okay. So before we wrap up, I just want to tell you a little bit more about this NVMS software. So
first of all, I was demonstrating on my MacBook, but the software is identical for both Windows
and Mac. It's the same look and feel and it's the same exact functionality. And again, this Viewtron
software can connect to DVRs for BNC cameras, NVRs for network IP cameras, and it can even connect
directly to individual IP cameras and bring all those together in one view and multiple views,
as you saw me demonstrate. The current version of the NVS software supports up to 16 DVRs or NVRs
and supports up to 256 cameras. You can configure up to 100 cameras on a single screen.
Most customers don't go that high. Most customers limit it to 16 or 32 max. It gets
too busy beyond that in my opinion, but it does support up to 100 if you need it.
It also supports up to 32 concurrent users. If you have multiple people that need to log in
to view your security cameras remotely, up to 32 users are supported. Now, we're going to
have a new version coming out, hopefully next month, if not early next year, that's going to
support up to 1,024 NVR and DVR locations and up to 30,000 cameras. So for huge enterprises,
large businesses, and we service government customers too, government facilities with multiple
locations. Large enterprises will be able to use this software and multiple Viewtron DVRs and NVRs.
The max 100 cameras per screen stays the same. And I really don't think we need to go higher
than that. Like I said, most customers limit those views to about 16 cameras.
And the number of concurrent users is going to be bumped up to 256.
