How do we save the recorded images to a transportable file type (such as *.AVI) for video clips?
The Vicon line of products can burn CDs in the ViconNet proprietary format that will enable a viewer to be
exported and allow playback of the secure (unalterable) format (the playback PC must meet the minimum
requirements of the viewer). It can also create *.AVI, XVID or MPEG-4 files, playable in Windows Media
player (video and audio). These files are
not
secure, and can be altered. Still images (in *.JPG format)
can also be exported from the application.
•
After capturing a still image from the Kollector Lite's software, can the image be processed or
enhanced before exporting to improve quality of the image?
The viewed image can be altered while on display (brightness, color, contrast), but the file itself cannot be
changed; by extension, the exported images would not be altered. Most computers have a graphics
application (such as Microsoft Paint) that can be used, and there are many third-party software products
designed to alter *.JPG files (which is the type of picture created using the export feature).
•
What operating system does the Kollector Lite use?
Windows XP Embedded. Each model/application and release has its own particular embedded revision.
•
Does the ViconNet product line have the ability to send any notification on an alarm?
Alarm macros can be created on the recorder that sends the alarm notification and/or video to any other
device (Kollector Lite or Workstation) on the network.
•
How do I find the MAC address of a local network card?
On Windows XP/Elite/Lite: At the command prompt, type
getmac
.
•
What PTZ devices can the Kollector Lite control?
Currently, the driver version 912 contains Vicon, Pelco (D Protocol), Ernitec, Samsung, Sensormatic,
Kalatel and Philips (Bosch), Pelco P Protocol, Panasonic, Elbex (Ver. 0.77), Elbex (Ver 0.91). Vicon
frequently updates the driver version. Contact Vicon for the most up-to-date driver information.
NOTE:
Vicon strongly recommends bench testing Kollector Lite recorders with any PTZ, prior to final
installation.
