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.
