Operating CBC Video System MPS

Note: CBC Video System requires a license file for each of the installed CBC cameras. The license is tied to a unique camera’s MAC address. The license files are located in the C:\Program Files\CBC America\Video Surveillance\license folder. However, for the evaluation purposes, MPS will operate any one CBC camera without a license.

After the cameras are successfully installed, the CBC Video System can be activated by clicking on the corresponding Run button in the CBC Application Manager.

The CBC (America) welcome screen will appear prompting the user to select OK or Hide. If none is selected, the CBC Video System will start on its own after a few seconds. Shown below is the CBC Video System displaying live video from sixteen CBC cameras. If Hide is selected, the application will be placed onto the system tray of the Windows task bar.

Toolbar

The toolbar of the CBC Video System is located in the upper portion of the screen above the video display area. It contains the following icons:

• Turns on/off a drop-down list of the installed cameras. Individual cameras are disabled/enabled by left double-clicking on the camera number. When disabled, live video image from the disabled camera is replaced with a blue rectangle, and the camera number in the drop-down list is marked with a red cross.
