VENICE Administration and Configuration User Guide
1.5 Important Notes
To use VENICE correctly please heed the following:
On the DVS system only use the designated video drive (main
storage) to store video and audio data. Other storage locations
will be too slow for real-time operations.
Leave about 15 % of the overall main storage capacity empty
of data for real-time performance reasons.
The real-time capability of the DVS system depends to a large
extent on the performance of the system’s hardware. There-
fore, it is recommended to terminate all other programs on
the DVS system while working with VENICE.
Your DVS system has been tested thoroughly and is very reli-
able. However, because of the vast amount of third-party
software available, its reactions on the installation of such
could not be tested. The installation of third-party software
on the DVS system may disrupt the real-time capability and/
or limit the functionality of your system.
For any data management with the VENICE client software the
latest Spycer application by DVS must be installed as well (see
section “System Requirements” on page 1-5).
The hibernation mode and display suspend mode are not sup-
ported for the VENICE server.
The display suspend mode will be disabled automatically on cli-
ents when installing the VENICE client software and it must re-
main disabled.
