> Distribute the work load of camera processing across several servers
> Server Failover / Redundancy
– Fail over camera processing from a ’down’ server to a ’redundant’ server
– Devices, users, rules and alarms tied to the ‘farm’ not the server
– All ’live’ and ’redundan’t servers run the same software services, share a license file and can potentially run the processing of any camera
– Configuration data redundancy

> 3. Proper configurations
– Typical configuration
– Analysis FPS: Can be set lower than the record frame rate
– Capture resolution
– Analysis resolution
– Motion mask
– Perspective(Camera position)
– used to help with object classification
– configured once per camera
– More than one analytic can be enabled per camera
– One motion mask & perspective per analytic/preset(for PTZ cameras)

> Hardware requirements
– Depending on:
– Type of analytics running
– Number of analytics running
– Image size & frame rate
– Typically 12 cameras can be analyzed on a single Intel Core2 Duo

> Rules
– Uses meta-data created by video engine
– Allows combination of sub-events
> Events must occur in sequence/within a specified time period
> Typical configurations
> Alarm mask(zone), actions, alarm schedule
> Many alarm masks can be set per analytic
> More than one Rule can be enabled per analytic
> Special Actions
– Enable another rule
– PTZ Auto-tracking
– Launch external program on the server (no GUI)
– OPC

> Event-driven Video Search
– Pinpoint specific events by setting search parameters such as:
– Search by time, location, activity
– Review and export qualifying snippets of video
– Export as .aira file (together with Symphony Player)
– Export as MPEG files
> Recurring Search
