A Rapid Eye Multi system can be set to show all of the video and data from a series of
sites, one site at a time, automatically. This is a common function of a CCTV security
system. Admin is used to setup the site tours. View is used to run the tours.
A site tour, involving multiple Rapid Eye sites is very different from other types of tours,
such as:
•
PTZ tours, which only include one camera, at one site. See
(PTZ)
Setup, page 95, to see how to setup a PTZ-camera tour.
•
LocalView tours, which uses LocalView to tour multiple cameras at one site. See
the LocalView online help for more information.
•
Public display monitors, which displays multiple cameras at one site by
connecting a monitor to one Multi-Media unit. See
Public Display Monitor
Before Defining a Site Tour
Your Multi System Administrator (Multi SA) needs at least two sites to define a tour. See
Adding a Site
on page
35
for more information. For systems using one site only, a Live
session is as effective as a Site tour. See the
Recorder Remote View Operator
A site tour is not listed in the View application until more than one site is assigned to
it. Design a site tour using two or more Rapid Eye units.
System Password
The system password should be the same for all of the Rapid Eye sites selected for a site
tour (see
