Overview
WebView Livescope MV Ver. 2.1 is software that allows you to use an Intranet or the Internet to
monitor images distributed from the Network Camera Server VB150/VB101 or the Network Camera
VB-C10/VB-C10R (hereafter referred to in this manual as "camera server").
This software consists of two packages: WebView Livescope MV Manager, that lets you create
monitoring screens or have centralized control of several camera servers; and WebView Livescope
MV Station, that lets you monitor images from cameras in multiple locations and easily download,
view, save, and manage pictures recorded in the camera server.
Since MV Manager uses the wizard format for registering camera servers or creating monitoring
screens, there is no need to learn complex operations. You can also have centralized control
(changing settings or confirming operating conditions) of camera servers installed in multiple
locations.
Monitoring screens can be created by selecting from a rich variety of screen styles to best suit the
size of the monitor, the number of camera servers and cameras, and monitoring objectives. It is
also possible to perform such tasks as editing maps, changing the allocation of camera servers on
the maps, or making settings for automatic operation based on schedules.
MV Station lets you access MV data created in MV Manager, freely remote control cameras, and
simultaneously view images from camera servers installed in multiple locations (up to 16 locations),
providing an efficient monitoring environment.
In MV Station, you can easily view and manage still pictures recorded by the camera server’s
picture recording function and automatically download them. Smoother and more accurate
monitoring is possible due to functions that simplify access procedures for downloading recorded
pictures or that display only the images that have been changed.
* When using VB101, upgrade the firmware to version 3.0.
Changes from MV Ver. 2.0 to Ver. 2.1 are as follows:
Added support for the Network Camera Server VB150
Canon Remote Control Pan-tilt Head NU-700 (see p. 59)
The VB150 with the Video Input set to Multiple (see p. 77)
Motion detection function (see p. 80)

MV Manager
The first step is to register the camera servers.
The procedures in the wizard-style format
make the registration process very easy.
The wizard-style format is also used for creating
monitoring screens. Creating screens that suit your
application is very easy.
Before you can start monitoring, you need to perform the required settings as described in "Registering
Camera Servers" (Chapter 2), "Creating Monitoring Screens" (Chapter 3), and "Exporting MV Data"
(Chapter 4).
