TruVision SVR System User Guide Overview
The TruVision Software Video Recorder (SVR) System User Guide discusses the general capabilities
and technical specifications of the TruVision SVR system. This document also discusses the related
configuration requirements for the TruVision Navigator software.
TruVision SVR Overview
TruVision SVR is the software-based recorder platform for the TruVision product family, giving the
flexibility of commercial-off-the-shelf server support for scalable video recording needs.
TruVision Navigator is the interface used to view and manage the data recorded in the TruVision SVR
system. TruVision Navigator v5.0 or a later version is required to manage TruVision SVR. Data can
be accessed and viewed over a LAN or the Internet. Through remote viewing and management of
third-party cameras, TruVision SVR expands the flexibility of corporate security systems.
TruVision SVR, utilizing the technology of IP-addressable cameras, allows system operators to
access and program their cameras from anywhere in the world. These network digital video cameras
are designed specifically for remote monitoring and management applications such as security and e-
surveillance.
All IP cameras must have their IP addresses configured according to their respective user guide(s).
The IP addresses may also be entered when configuring the camera in the TruVision Navigator
management software.
Once SVR is installed on a system and the system is in production, it is recommended that security on
these servers should be locked down by the system administrator so that only users with valid
Windows domain accounts have access to video. With the introduction of the browser-based
applications, the ability to access video servers is made much easier using Microsoft domain
authentication. It is highly recommended to deny access to these servers for a secure deployment.
