playing video from multiple network cameras (hereafter referred to as camera servers).

VK-64/VK-16 and VK-Lite enable viewing and recording of JPEG and MPEG-4 video, two-way

audio communication, and audio recording.

The Network Video Recorder consists of storage server software and viewer software.

You can record videos from multiple camera servers and can log event information of

motion detection and external device input, using the storage server software. Also you can

view live videos from multiple camera servers, and play recorded videos saved on storage

servers, using the viewer software.

Up to 64 camera servers can be registered to Network Video Recorder VK-64 (hereafter

referred to as VK-64).

Network Video Recorder VK-16 (hereafter referred to as VK-16) has the same core

functionalities as VK-64, but the maximum of number of camera servers, which can be

registered to, is 16.

System Operation Overview

You need to purchase the required number of viewer licenses to use additional viewers.

Also, VK-64 Viewer is suitable for a monitoring system, in which you need just monitoring,

not recording. You can view live videos from and control up to 64 camera severs. (Some

functions are not available, such as recording and playing video, displaying event logs of

motion detection and external device input, and still frames.)

To upgrade from an older version (v1.1, v1.2, v1.3, or v1.4) to v2.0, download the free patch

installer from our website. License keys used for the older versions can also be used for

v2.0.

Network Video Recorder VK-Lite supplied with VB-C60 is a simplified version software of

VK-64/VK-16. VK-Lite allows displaying video, recording video and audio, and playing

audio, of up to 4 camera servers.

A VK-Lite Viewer license is given per camera server. When using multiple camera servers,

you need to buy additional licenses (“VK-Lite Additional Viewer License”) for each camera.

Specification Comparison of

VK-64/VK-16 and VK-Lite

VK-Lite is Network Video Recorder which is supplied with VB-C60. Although VK-Lite

basically provides the same functionalities as VK-64/VK-16, there are some functional

limitations as follows, since VK-Lite is a simplified version of VK-64/VK-16.

*1Operational limits apply depending on the number of camera servers, the PC performance and hard disk

capacity, and the amount of network traffic.

*2In case of using VK-64/VK-16 with multiple storage servers, you can unify management of camera servers

registered to each storage server and the recorded data, if you set one master storage server. When connecting

to each storage server using VK-Lite viewer, you need to switch connection one by one.

*3Layout Sequences is a function to switch displayed viewer windows at set intervals.

System Configuration

Examples

Viewing and Recording on a Single PC

A combination of storage servers and viewers enables various types of system

configurations, such as a simple system with one PC and one camera server, or a

system using multiple PCs and camera servers.

You can configure a system with one PC as both a storage server and a viewer.

Storage Server

Records video

Viewer

Displays live video and recorded video

Network

Recording with One Storage Server and Viewing on One Viewer

You can configure a system with one PC as a storage server and another PC as

a viewer.

This configuration is recommended for a system with multiple camera servers.

Using Multiple Storage Servers and Multiple Viewers

Up to 10 storage servers can be used on a single network. When multiple camera

servers are used in a system, you can use one of them as a master storage server,

and use the others as slave storage servers. Master storage servers are storage

servers, which viewers first connect to, and are used to store information of camera

servers registered to each storage server and to store event logs. Although there

is no limit on the number of viewers to be connected, up to 10 clients can connect

to a single server. In all, up to 192 camera servers can be operated in one system.

You can operate a system with a combination of storage servers and VK-64, VK-16

or VK-Lite.
