Mirasys V Workstation

Mirasys V Workstation is the primary user interface for system operation. It can be DVR resident (local) or on a separate PC (remote) over a TCP/IP network. In both cases, the functionalities and the user interface are similar.

One extra function is available on a local Workstation - in the local image display mode, images can be streamed directly from the capture card to the display adapter and the computer screen. In a remote Workstation, this is not possible, since capture cards and the display adapter do not reside in the same computer.

Several workstations can be active simultaneously. All users have to log on to the system and choose a profile. The workstations automatically connect with the DVRs included in the active profile.

Workstation User Interface
The user interface of Mirasys V Workstation exploits the familiar Windows application layout. All windows are moveable and sizeable. Toolbars with icons and drop-down menus are available for the operator.

The Navigator shows all devices (cameras, audio sources, text channels, and I/O devices) included in the active profile. Devices can be organized in groups and sub-groups and several device types can be mixed in a group (for example, cameras, text channels, and audio sources).

Device windows can be opened on the desktop for use as presentations (real-time/playback), search tools, or control windows. A window can present one or several devices.

The system is normally operated with a mouse. Keyboard is necessary only for login, remarks, and notices. Devices are activated with a mouse click. Optionally, devices may be dragged onto the desktop or to existing device windows.

User-Defined Layouts
The operator defines and stores custom layouts that can be recalled later from a layout list. For each, the dimensions and positions of all windows, together with component data and the active profile, are stored.

This makes it easy for the operator to change views between several surveillance sites and building floors.
