Securing a camera

Forethought about poor camera angles and the possibility of tampering with cameras or vandalism can help to assist police if an area becomes a crime scene, for optimal gathering of evidence, whether for corporate use, or for use of video in a court of law.

Lens selection and angle of the camera can be critical to the usefulness of images obtained in a closed circuit television (CCTV) system.

When planning where to place video cameras, Honeywell suggests that your planning authority consider:

dealing with environmental lighting situations that can render a system ineffective: direct sunshine or other strong lighting, darkness and so on.

environmental factors that can hamper cameras or the lens of cameras: dust, condensation, grease (common in food preparation areas), excessive heat or cold.

working around camera blind spots due to: architecture, mobile equipment, vehicle docking, construction and so on

The details of camera lens selection, camera angle, maintenance and so on, are beyond the scope of this guide. For an in-depth reference about the field of closed-circuit television in a security setting, see:

2.6LocalView

Hardware

LocalView is available by connecting a VGA monitor and a mouse directly to the REMM unit. LocalView automatically starts when the REMM unit is powered up. An online help facility is included with LocalView. To use LocalView, you need only the mouse supplied with the REMM unit – a keyboard is not required.

Honeywell recommends powering down a unit before connecting hardware to it. See 2.4.1: Powering Up and Down, p. 2–5.

PTZ configuration and control are not currently supported in LocalView. PTZ configuration and control are fully supported when using View software.

Functions

Using LocalView, you can:

perform basic system setup functions such as: configuring network settings, including the unit’s IP address

perform camera setup: name, type, recording rate and recording quality

configure system clock: date, time and time zone
