Rapid Eye Storage Estimator

To make storage estimates using more parameters (scheduling, audio, motion and so on), Honeywell’s Rapid Eye Storage Estimator is installed with Rapid Eye software. See p. 123.

Optimizing Recorded Video

Flexibility

To optimize the many setup options quickly, use the Automatic Maximization of DSP Performance. Performance maximization can be performed using View software or LocalView. The Quality settings are not affected by it. The result of maximizing performance is shown on the Recording tab and on the Video tab.

Preparation: contiguous connections

For optimization the digital signal processing (DSP) of video and its storage, an installer needs to make camera connections contiguous, on the back of a unit. Connections are said to be contiguous if they start at camera VIDEO INPUT 1 and continue sequentially. For example: Connecting three cameras to inputs: #1, #2 and #3 is contiguous; connecting the cameras to inputs: #1, #3 and #4 would not; nor would using inputs: #2, #3 and #4.

Automatic Maximization of DSP Performance

Gauging the processing load

The load on DSP is reported on the gauges for DSP Bandwidth Utilization, as you use the Recording tab to customize the settings of recorded video. See fig. 5–7.
