March Networks  27203  Command Recording Software DVD with Software Documentation for Windows IOS

March Networks® Command™ Recording Software is the powerhouse behind the scenes that enables the efficient recording, storage, and retrieval of video for all of your organization’s cameras and transaction data. A host of advanced features, e.g., a configuration wizard, statistics dashboards, and automatic failover, help to insure an easy setup, intuitive health reporting, and a fault-tolerant system. The Windows®-based recording software runs on a variety of platforms — from a small independent workstation, to a March Networks recorder, to a commercial off-the-shelf server (up to 500 cameras per server), to a large-scale virtual machine — depending on your application. You can also order your Command Recording Software (along with the Windows operating system) pre-installed and pre-tested on a server, certified for plug-and-play operation and optimum performance out-of-the-box.

The configuration wizard is an intuitive tool that allows you to quickly configure the basic functionalities of your Command Recording Software in just six steps. No training or user manual required…the wizard guides you through the process so you’re able to record, stream live video, and play back archived video evidence in minutes.

The software is equipped with a myriad of built-in features to help maximize overall system performance, including the ability to manually select parameters that significantly save on storage space, use less bandwidth, and cut CPU usage.

You’ve configured your cameras to stream at .5 Mbps, but the bitrate is now mysteriously at 2 Mbps. Is this because there’s more activity in the scene? Is the bitrate spiking during the day, then going back down at night? Or is the bitrate slowly creeping up, which can sometimes happen with older cameras, and perhaps you need to automatically initiate a camera reboot once a month? The statistics dashboards provide comprehensive data on things like system performance, recording performance, and ingress/egress bitrate, presented in easy-to-read, color-coded charts and graphs. The ability to evaluate this data over the last 30 days allows you to uncover trends and potentially pinpoint root causes before technical support needs to intervene.

Each system user has a profile that defines that user’s system access rights. This means that each person in your organization has access to only what’s required for their job, without being distracted by additional functionality they will never use.

Your video will always be available, even when your network and/ or your server aren’t. Command’s innovative Shadow Archive feature allows for seamless access to recorded video for total fail-safe management.

You can create and customize alarms using a variety of parameters, e.g., motion, schedule, analytics, or combinations of multiple parameters. You can also select which cameras are triggered after an alarm/event, launch PTZ actions, and automatically send email notifications. These powerful and customizable alarm policies, which include pre- and post-alarm recording, can be programmed even in an unmanaged environment (no Command Enterprise Software required).

Key Features:

• Flexible camera licensing. Pay for only the number of channels you need, with the ability to expand to 500 channels as your business grows and your needs change. Configuration wizard. Quickly configure the basic recording functionalities (e.g., cameras, storage, recording, and user profiles) in just six steps.

• Shadow Archiving. In the event a network connection is interrupted, Command uses the recorded video from the camera’s internal SD card, and re-integrates that video into the right spot on the server when the network connection is re-established.
• Statistics dashboards. Access useful charts and data related to system performance, recording performance, and ingress/egress bitrate. The  data can be exported to an excel file and the charts can be downloaded  for offline viewing.
• Health monitoring. Get email notifications of health-related issues, even in an unmanaged environment.
• External recording options. Simultaneous internal and external recording ensures your video and data are always safe. Choose from Direct-Attached Storage (DAS), Network-Attached Storage (NAS), or Storage Area Network (SAN) to increase the stability and reliability of your system.
• Exportable player. To ensure that third-party investigators and law enforcement can review evidence, the Command Player can be automatically included when evidence files are exported.
• Automatic failover. If a server’s recording is interrupted, recording automatically switches to a standby server in less than 30 seconds. Video from that standby server will be transferred back to the primary server, either instantly or on a schedule.
• Local control eliminates the need for a separate PC to view your video (Command Recording Software and Command Client can be loaded onto the same server).
• Synchronized audio recording lets you hear, in addition to see, what happened in the scene.
• Privacy masks allow you to block out certain areas of the camera’s field of view, while the areas of interest remain clearly visible.
• The software is compatible with any ONVIF Profile S third-party camera, and many of the IP cameras you’re already using. A list of the IP cameras that integrate with Command Recording Software is available on our website.
• The Command Player can be automatically included when evidence files are exported.
