To optimize the many setup options quickly, use the
Performance. Performance maximization can be performed using View software or
LocalView. The Quality settings are not affected by it. The result of maximizing performance
is shown on the Recording and Video tabs.
Preparation: Contiguous Connections
For optimizing the digital signal processing (DSP) of video and its storage, an installer
needs to make camera connections contiguous, on the back of a unit. Connections are
contiguous if they start at camera VIDEO INPUT 1 and continue sequentially. For example,
connecting three cameras to inputs: #1, #2 and #3 is contiguous; connecting the cameras
to inputs: #1, #3 and #4 is not; nor would using inputs: #2, #3 and #4.
Note Contiguous connections only benefits Rapid Eye 16-channel units with
480/400 IPS (images per second). Rapid Eye units with 120/100 IPS are not
affected by contiguous connections.
Gauging the Processing Load
The load on the unit is reported on the Bandwidth Utilization gauges and are updated as
you use the Recording tab to customize the settings of recorded video (see
Figure 5-5 Load on Multi-Media Resources
Rapid Eye DVR System Administrator Guide
is installed with Rapid Eye software. See
Automatic Maximization of Multi-Media
