Description

The Pelco VMX300(-E) video management system uses a Windows®-based interface to control any combination of analog and IP devices in a single integrated video security system. With a mouse, you can click a camera icon on a system map and then drag it to a video display window. Mapping configurations and a visual interface allow you to easily control the following devices:

Matrix switchers (CM6700, CM6800, CM9740, CM9760, CM9770, CM9780)

PelcoNetMPEG Series transmission systems (NET300 Series, NET350 Series, NET4001A)

DX8000 (software version level 1.1.00.1121 or higher) and DX9000 Series digital video recorders

NVR300 Series network video recorders

Spectra® and Esprit® camera positioning systems

CM9760-ALM and CM9760-REL input/output devices

VMX300 provides control and monitoring of CCTV equipment in a client-to-server configuration. VMX300-E provides control and monitoring of CCTV equipment in the following configurations: client-to-server; multiple clients-to-server; client-to-multiple servers; or server-to-server.

Each VMX300(-E) system must have at least one workstation with server software. Workstations with server software always include client software and, therefore, are called client/server workstations. A VMX300 system can have only one client/server workstation. A VMX300-E system can have multiple client/server workstations.

Each VMX300(-E) system must have at least one workstation with client software. This can be the client/server workstation, described above, or you can add a separate workstation with only client software to the system. Each VMX300(-E) system can have multiple client workstations in addition to the client/server workstation.

Your system administrator configures your system using the VMX300(-E) server software, and then launches the VMX300(-E) server into “run” mode. A system operator uses the VMX300(-E) client software to view and control the area under surveillance. The operator can connect to the VMX300(-E) system from the client/server workstation, or from a separate client workstation. With the VMX300-E version, an operator could also connect from another client/server workstation.
