SpyderWeb II
The Videotek SpyderWeb II
™
Unattended Networked Monitoring System is used to
monitor and control Videotek VTM/TVM series devices from a single PC at a local or
remote location. After the installation of a Videotek series device, the Ethernet port
can be connected directly to the Ethernet port of a PC.
SpyderWeb II has three basic functions:
• Remote control of the VTM/TVM
• Gather and organize alarm information generated by VTM/TVM
• Initiate, display, and transfer frame captures from the VTM/TVM
SpyderWeb II uses a network connection for monitoring and control of up to 30
VTM/TVM series units. The SpyderWeb II program runs cooperatively with other
Windows
®
programs. It runs “in the background” of a PC using a Windows operating
system, allowing use of the PC for other tasks. SpyderWeb II alarms the user of any
problems detected in any of the connected VTMs/TVMs.
