Up to eight monitors.
Where somebody actually watches the cameras, one screen is the constraint. VISEC can spread the view across up to eight monitors, so areas can be separated physically rather than paged through.
- Up to eight displaysEnough for a real control position rather than a desktop compromise.
- Arrange the gridThe arrange-cameras button sets how the tiles are laid out, so the important views get the space.
- Group by locationCameras can be given group names — by building, gate or floor — so a large list stays navigable and a screen can be given a job.
- Full screen when it mattersOne keypress to fill a display with the camera being watched.
Drawing many live tiles is more work than recording them, so this is where a machine with a decent graphics card earns its place. The practical trick is to record the main stream and display the sub stream: full quality in the archive, cheap tiles on the wall. That one change transforms how many cameras a single PC will show — how many cameras one PC handles.
Gatehouses, control rooms, reception desks and shop back offices. A school might put entrances on one screen and car parks on another; a yard might give the weighbridge its own display. See schools and yards and depots.
Quick answers.
Is multi-monitor an extra?
No. It is part of the program, and the free one camera license has every feature — you will just have one camera to look at.
Do the monitors need to match?
No. Windows handles the displays; VISEC uses what is there.
Will eight monitors slow the recording down?
Displaying costs more than recording. If the machine is working hard, display the sub streams and keep recording on the main streams.
Every feature, on the free license.
One camera, free for life, with the complete program. Paid licenses add cameras, not features.
