Having many Viewers accessing the same Camera Servers and
Storage Servers will affect system performance.
Note
Installation of both Storage Server and Viewer on a single PC causes a
heavy load on your PC. If you use VK-64 with many camera servers or
the frame rate for live video is high, install each application on separate
PCs.
If the maximum frame rate for live viewing is 10 fps or more, viewing
with a low capacity PC may take longer, the specified frame rate may
not be achieved, recording frame rate may be lower or recording may
be interrupted. Please reduce the live viewing frame rate or use a
separate PC.
