Means of Configuring a Rapid Eye Unit
You have the option of configuring a Multi-Media DSP unit for CCTV use:
• Without using a personal computer (PC). By using LocalView, an interface that runs
on the Multi-Media DSP unit, you can configure and operate a unit as needed. See
About Rapid Eye Active Alert Units and LocalView
LocalView limitations when using an Active Alert unit.
• By using a PC running Honeywell Rapid Eye Admin and View software to operate
Rapid Eye units and manage system administration.
• Using either.
Designated Personnel: a Multi SA from Your Organization
To carry out the setup and supervision of Honeywell Rapid Eye™ Multi-Media DSP units,
your organization should designate a System Administrator (Multi SA) for your Rapid Eye
CCTV system.
Using One Rapid Eye Unit, or Many at Once
Admin software is used to manage a central database (Multi db) of Rapid Eye Multi-Media
DSP units. Older Rapid Eye units (Multi-Media and Multi models) are also supported.
View software is used to further configure each of the Multi-Media DSP units for video,
audio, POS devices, and so on. View software can connect to many Rapid Eye units at
once for configuration, video (live and recorded), alarm sessions, and so on.
The information in this guide deals almost exclusively with the use of a PC to configure
Rapid Eye units. See the Rapid Eye™ Multi-Media DSP Unit Quick Start
LocalView online help for more information on LocalView configuration.
