Management upgrade

April 2012 Surveillance

Mobotix recently unveiled a major update to MxControlCenter, its network video management platform. Focusing on operator usability, MxControlCenter 2.5 introduces a host of new features.

These new features include saved search profiles to make user defined common search queries a single-click operation, unlimited users and groups rights management control with full action audit log, and video motion search on recorded footage to identify critical events quickly.

Playback has been improved, putting common functions in user friendly locations. MxControlCenter 2.5 also improves initial system setup, allowing recording paths for multiple cameras to be configured in a single operation. These new features build on MxControlCenter including; alarm notification and management, system and software configuration management and backup, automatic camera discovery and setup using built-in Bonjour services, and flexible grid and background layouts.

ControlCenter allows users to easily manage and monitor their cameras and footage on-the-fly. MxControlCenter 2.5 integrates features for managing video walls using cheap and readily available thin client PCs & LCD screens, making command centre setups simple and cost efficient.

The new software has an improved export function, with additional container formats. Live recording of camera streams – even different cameras – as one clip on the local archive, means that someone tracking suspicious persons in an MxCC layout across several cameras can track that group or individual and record it as one clip.

MxControlCenter at a glance:

* No licences, no installation fees, unlimited instances.

* Automatic discovery and setup of cameras.

* Alarm handling and management.

* Unlimited grid and map/background layouts.

* Camera status display.

* Software and firmware management.

* Future proof – free upgrades for life.

* Footage playback, search, and export.

* Environment export, backup, and retrieval.

* Virtual PTZ and image improvement, and hemispheric image correction.

* Customisable user interface.

* Integration of third-party cameras.
