Server and Client Components
There are two components in ST7501: LiveClient and Playback.
The Server provides a centralized management site for video recording. LiveClient is a client
program for the user to login and modify the server's conguration, edit the server's recording
storage, schedules and many other functions on the server; Playback is another client program
for the user to login and browse the recorded video database and video clips related to specic
events on the server.
Usage Scenario
The three components can be installed separately or combined together on the same host. You
can just install the components you need on your local host. For example, you can only install
ST7501 LiveClient on your local computer to monitor the live video from a remote ST7501
Server; or you can only install ST7501 Playback on another local computer to login to a remote
server to review recorded videos.
For users that only manage a few cameras, we recommend installing the client and server
components on the same computer. A host with all of the three components installed is recognized
as a stand-alone site. All the functions can be simultaneously performed on one single site.
Shown below is the usage scenario of ST7501 Server and client components.
