System Design Concept Notes on Storage Server Operation It is recommended to use the Storage Server exclusively for the VK-64/VK-16. Be sure to avoid the following forms of operation. • Using the Storage Server with a Web Server As Storage Server, you cannot use a PC where Web server software such as Windows standard IIS (Internet Information Server) or Apache has been already installed. Since the Storage Server uses the HTTP protocol to communicate with the Camera Server, therefore it may not work properly if other Web applications exist on the same platform. The HTTP port number used by the VK-64/VK-16 should be fixed to "80". • Using the Storage Server with a Database Server (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle) If the hard disk is heavily loaded in database processing, recording may not work normally. Conversely, the database server may be affected by the VK-64/VK-16 when it need hard disk performance to complete its task. • Using the Storage Server with a File Server Accesses to the hard disk may be too frequent and recording may not work normally. Also, the disk capacity for the VK-64/VK-16 may run short. • Using the Storage Server with other applications The processing load of other applications may have a negative effect on the storage performance. This software uses 3 ports: TCP 80/TCP 9080/TCP 10080. If you are running another application which uses the same ports on your PC at the same time, please use another port. Notes on Viewer Sizing Consider the following points when selecting the PC for viewer (installed). • Live-video viewing and recorded video playback performance of the VK-64/VK-16 largely depends on the CPU and graphics board performance on the PC. The CPU performance affects image capturing and video data generation, and the graphics board performance affects image drawing. See the following example when selecting the PC for the viewer installed. In this example, the OS is Windows XP Professional. 1. CPU: Pentium 4 3.0GHz, memory: 1GB, graphics board: Quadro FX570 When using the VB-C60 with Resolution=340 x 240 and Quality=3: Total frame rate: JPEG image---Max. 220 fps MPEG-4 video---Max. 180 fps 2. CPU: Pentium 4 3.6GHz, memory: 1GB, graphics board: Quadro FX1700 When using the VB-C60 with Resolution=340 x 240 and Quality=3: Total frame rate: JPEG image---Max. 260 fps MPEG-4 video---Max. 210 fps 1-26

Notes on Storage Server Operation
It is recommended to use the Storage Server exclusively for the VK-64/VK-16.
Be sure to avoid the following forms of operation.
•
Using the Storage Server with a Web Server
As Storage Server, you cannot use a PC where Web server software such as Windows standard IIS
(Internet Information Server) or Apache has been already installed.
Since the Storage Server uses the HTTP protocol to communicate with the Camera Server, therefore it
may not work properly if other Web applications exist on the same platform.
The HTTP port number used by the VK-64/VK-16 should be fixed to "80".
•
Using the Storage Server with a Database Server (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle)
If the hard disk is heavily loaded in database processing, recording may not work normally. Conversely,
the database server may be affected by the VK-64/VK-16 when it need hard disk performance to
complete its task.
•
Using the Storage Server with a File Server
Accesses to the hard disk may be too frequent and recording may not work normally. Also, the disk
capacity for the VK-64/VK-16 may run short.
•
Using the Storage Server with other applications
The processing load of other applications may have a negative effect on the storage performance.
This software uses 3 ports: TCP 80/TCP 9080/TCP 10080. If you are running another application which
uses the same ports on your PC at the same time, please use another port.
Notes on Viewer Sizing
Consider the following points when selecting the PC for viewer (installed).
•
Live-video viewing and recorded video playback performance of the VK-64/VK-16 largely depends
on the CPU and graphics board performance on the PC. The CPU performance affects image
capturing and video data generation, and the graphics board performance affects image drawing.
See the following example when selecting the PC for the viewer installed.
In this example, the OS is Windows XP Professional.
1.
CPU: Pentium 4 3.0GHz, memory: 1GB, graphics board: Quadro FX570
When using the VB-C60 with Resolution=340 x 240 and Quality=3:
Total frame rate:
JPEG image---Max. 220 fps
MPEG-4 video---Max. 180 fps
2.
CPU: Pentium 4 3.6GHz, memory: 1GB, graphics board: Quadro FX1700
When using the VB-C60 with Resolution=340 x 240 and Quality=3:
Total frame rate:
JPEG image---Max. 260 fps
MPEG-4 video---Max. 210 fps
