At the BEST exhibition in London on October 18 and 19, the UK manufacturers Tecton are demonstrating their latest firmware – now version 1.5.0 – for their Liberator (pictured) and Servalan recorders for IP and analogue cameras.
The updates include on video processing, that allows up to 15 users to see all the cameras remotely via a Gigabit ethernet. Those users can all be looking at the same camera. Tecton has also added features to its video management system (VMS) for control rooms. The firm has brought in more integration with asset tagging, access control, alarm panels and perimeter protection equipment. Users can log onto any workstation (but not two at once). Users can work together on incidents over several work stations. You can make use of multi-layered mapping, whereby icons represent alarms, doors and other assets. A supervisor can edit the map as required. As for synchronised audio playback with dynamic screen selection, when downloading audio and video footage, only file file is required, and handled like any other piece of evidence.
