Manage RC-C Servers
The below information is for legacy reference only. Users of Ocularis need not utilize master/slave relationships as
recorders are defined in the Ocularis Base.
If your organization has RC-C or NetDVMS installations, you can integrate these servers into your RC-E solution. You
do this by adding the RC-C or NetDVMS servers through the RC-E Management Client.
Integration only works with RC-C servers running NetDVMS version 6.0 or later or RC-C 7.0 or later. Integration is not
possible if your RC-E system uses IPv6. For the remainder of this section, the term RC-C will encompass supported
versions of NetDVMS.
When added, RC-C servers can send data and video to the RC-E surveillance system. You can compare added RC-C
servers with recording servers and these will likewise be available for viewing in clients.
Note that roles defined in RC-E's Management Client can be given access to data from RC-C servers. This is done by
coupling RC-E roles with OnSSI RC-C user rights.
Furthermore, RC-C servers added in the RC-E Management Client will be listed in the
Add/Remove RC-C Servers
dialog which you can open by selecting
RC-C Servers...
from the
Tools
menu.
OnSSI RC-C's Recording Server service must be running for RC-E to receive data from the RC-C installation. See the
RC-C documentation for more information.
Limitations when Adding RC-C Servers
There are a few limitations to how RC-C servers will work when added as slaves to the RC-E surveillance system.
They will provide operational status and status details on cameras and RC-C servers but not on any other device
types.
Also, you cannot define cameras, user rights, scheduling, or other settings for the RC-C installation, or see previews
of the cameras in RC-E. All necessary RC-C settings must be made in RC-C’s
Administrator
application or other
relevant RC-C applications. See the RC-C documentation for more information.
The above is for legacy reference only. Users of Ocularis need not utilize master/slave relationships as
recorders are defined in the Ocularis Base.
Prerequisites for Access Roles for RC-C Servers
On the RC-C server, check to see if one of the RC-C users has user rights that can be used in connection with an RC-
E role.
Write the RC-C user's user name and password or Windows account down. You will need this information when you
use RC-E’s Management Client to define roles with access to RC-C servers. Note that user names and passwords
are case sensitive.
You can also create a new user in RC-C, and assign the required user rights in RC-C, so they match the RC-E role.
See the RC-C documentation for more information about creating new users in RC-C.
The above is for legacy reference only. Users of Ocularis need not utilize master/slave relationships as
recorders are defined in the Ocularis Base.
