Adding Cameras and Replacing Boards
It is possible to add additional analog cameras to a Gen II based CompleteView deployment. The process
required depends on whether there are inactive ports on an already deployed Gen II card.
No board swap out is required
If the existing Gen II board has enough unlicensed channels available, simply order the correct number of
analog licenses and note on the purchase order that the licenses are for an existing deployment and do not
require a capture board.
The Gen II board needs to be traded
Salient Systems will advance replace the existing board with a new board that contains the correct number of
inputs.
Order the analog channels along with the correct board exchange part number. Board exchanges are available
for exchanging the 8 channel card to the 16 or 32 channel card as well as from the 16 to the 32 channel card.
The follow chart summarizes the exchange scenarios and the correct exchange part number.
