Flash memory module

by Mark Rowe

BCDVideo reports a new technological feature to their Nova Series IP Video Recording servers designed to save the installer time and money. All BCDVideo IP Video Recording Servers will include an embedded, password-protected flash memory module.

Named SMARTVMS, this allows an installer to capture their VMS project system settings in a protected mode internal to the server. The device can be accessed remotely for system restore or any necessary modifications to the set-up without an on-site call. As the installer makes changes to the site, those changes can be saved, so that the system can always have the most current image for restore.

Tom Larson, Director of Global Accounts at BCDVideo, says: “This new technology will allow the contractor to save the entire VMS configuration, including the IP camera addressing, motion-detection settings, cameras settings, and other documents pertinent to the system. As an encrypted module, it allows the contractor to have all of the data pertaining to that project local to the system and accessible by only the contractor. For any reason, should the VMS get corrupted, the system can be rolled back to the last saved configuration. Since these files are 100 per cent accessible and can be managed remotely, the contractor can restore the system from anywhere in the world.”

The company recently released SMARTRECOVERY, an embedded disaster recovery module which will now co-exist on all BCDVideo Nova systems with SMARTVMS.
