Cross-System Client empowers users to connect to multiple servers on various domains and in different systems from a single client workstation. All settings and cameras associated with these servers are consolidated in a single convenient view. That way you can access multiple independent surveillance systems simultaneously, even if the customer cannot or does not want to combine these systems.
This may happen for various reasons, such as:
- your facilities are geographically dispersed, or
- you want to mass configure multiple cameras from different systems.
A typical scenario may involve police plugging Cross-System Client in security systems at different retail chains / stores.
Cross-System Client automatically connects to specified C-Werk domains when you start it (see Configuring Cross-System Client and autologon). The client first connects to the primary C-Werk domain; connection to the other C-Werk domains is established in the background after the client starts.
Note
You can also configure the Client connections to C-Werk domains in the sign-up in the authorization dialog box. To do this, enter comma-separated values for Servers as follows: <Server 1 Name or IP address>:<Connection port>, <Server 2 Name or IP address>:<Connection port>. Server 1 is the primary connection
