You can add hardware to a Rapid Eye Hybrid LT DVR at any time. Rapid Eye software is
then used to make Hybrid LT DVRs aware of the hardware. The steps to do so are outlined
in the road map, below.
Road Map for Adding Hardware
After testing the connection from an operator PC to a Rapid Eye Hybrid LT DVR, power
down the DVR, then:
1.
Place the DVR and its camera(s) in their operational locations, and power-up the DVR.
2.
Use the View application to run a Maintenance session at the site to specify other
(optional) hardware connected to the Hybrid LT DVR, such as: extra cameras, gates
controlled by a Rapid Eye Hybrid LT operator, and heat sensors.
Aside from cameras and communications, a Rapid Eye Hybrid LT DVR can interface with
many different types of hardware, such as:
•
Sensors: motion, heat, alarm, and so on.
•
Relay triggered devices: locks, gates, warning sirens, and so on.
•
Alarm panel: a fault relay offers a means to monitor the DVR operational status, using
an external device.
•
Point-of-sale (POS) hardware, using text messaging over serial communications, or
other device.
When planning where to place the DVR, inform your planning authority about:
•
Allowing for access to the DVR, if maintenance is required, yet preventing easy
criminal tampering with the system.
- and -
•
Environmental factors that can hamper the DVR, such as: lack of ventilation, dust,
condensation, and excessive heat or cold.
