Recorders :
Add\Edit\Remove
Allows the user to define new recorders (StreamR applications) for the system. Each
recorder has a single database file (Video.mdb) into which it writes the details of
every AVI file it records (Name, Date\Time, Location , and Camera). The Network
path to this file should be specified by the user. In the second field the user must add
the Network path to the recorded AVI files themselves .The Recording application is
responsible for sharing this path across the network . Finally the user should assign a
unique name to the new recorder. An existing recorder may be edited or deleted
pressing the EDIT or REMOVE button respectively.
SITES:
Add\Edit\Remove
Allows the user to define new sites. Every site should have a unique name and an
optional description. An existing site may be edited or deleted pressing the EDIT or
REMOVE buttons respectively.(See figure 7). Under the EDIT option, devices and
recorders may be added to the site by selecting the required device\recorder from the
devices tree (on the left side of the form) and clicking the ADD button, the added
device\recorder will appear on the right tree which represents the devices\recorders of
that site. (see figure 8).
After defining a new empty site (and pressing ‘OK’ button), this Edit-Site dialog will
appear automatically so that the user may add units\devices to the new site, (or quit,
and add devices later at any stage using the EDIT option mentioned above).
