The OPC connectivity to data points must be defined using the standard
MM8000 OPC client configuration.
The XML file defining the DVR model contains the following information:

The control information about the viewer and the related invocation parameters,
which are necessary to select the appropriate video source depending on the
condition in the management station. Three types of scenarios are foreseen:
– The viewer is a Windows application that can handle in-line command pa-
rameters, e.g.:
C:\ProgramFiles\VGMaker\VGViewer.exe -s1 -c12
– The DVR provides a web server to access video images that is invoked us-
ing a general URL with sub-paths that can select a specific video source,
e.g.:
http://www.intranet1/vgmaker/vg.aspx#?page=viewer&camera=112
– The DVR provides a web server to access video images that is invoked us-
ing a specific URL for each video source, e.g.:
rtsp://www.intranet1/vgmaker/vg/cam112dome/video.gci

The maximum number (0-256) of Alarm Inputs, Alarm Outputs, Video Inputs,
and Video Outputs. Zero means that no inputs of that type are foreseen.

The DVR datapoint structure to be inserted in Composer, including folders for
the configurable inputs and outputs.
The XML file can include the following node structures (XML node classes):
DVR (mandatory, including viewer and limits) ... Node TYPE 1
VideoIn Folder ............................................... Node TYPE 20
VideoIn (predefined video inputs) ..................... Node TYPE 21
VideoOut Folder ............................................. Node TYPE 30
VideoOut (predefined video outputs) ................. Node TYPE 31
AlarmInput Folder ........................................... Node TYPE 50
AlarmInput (predefined alarm inputs) ................. Node TYPE 51
AlarmOutput Folder .............................................. Node TYPE 60
AlarmOutput (predefined alarm outputs) ............ Node TYPE 61
Model name
The XML file must define the name of the DVR used in Composer to select the cor-
responding model. The XML structure is the following:
<!— DRV description
<property ID="CustomerText">
<item VAL="DVR model XYZ" />
</property>
<property ID="TechText">
<item VAL="DVR model for MM8000 developed on ... by ..." />
