EMERGENCY AGENT OVERVIEW

The Emergency Agent software is a utility that streams video across a Local Area Network to a Client PC when an alarm is detected on the XVR unit. The video that streams across can be stopped, played forwards and backwards, in slow motion or real speed.

The utility is loaded at startup and placed in the taskbar. It constantly monitors for a signal from the XVR unit. When an alarm signal is detected the Emergency Agent Image Viewer window opens and starts playing the video from the camera associated to the alarm.
