Introduction 1 Introduction This is a technical guide to the integration of a DVR unit in MM8000. It provides the technical information that enables you to instruct MM8000 to handle a 3 party video device for both video image display and status reporting.
Composer is the common configuration tool environment that implements the DMS Engineering. When an MM8000 station is installed at a site, it needs to be configured for the specific facility. The Composer software is developed for this purpose. It is a Win-...
The controlled activation (with parameters) of the 3 party video viewer in the MM8000 environment. The viewer can be: – A Windows application (EXE file) providing the display functions. The techni- cal requirements that this application must match are detailed in chapter 3 at p.16.
The XML structure is the following: <!— DRV description -> <property ID="CustomerText"> <item VAL="DVR model XYZ" /> </property> <property ID="TechText"> <item VAL="DVR model for MM8000 developed on … by …" /> </property> Building Technologies 048_DMS_DMS8000_Generic_DVR_Integration_Guide_MP4.50_A6V10331273_a_en Fire Safety & Security Products 06.2012...
Integrating a DVR According to the Composer requirements, both a Customer Text and a Technical Text must be specified. 2.4.1.1 Video viewer Windows application or web page The XML file must define whether the viewer is a Windows application or a web page.

Integrating a DVR Parameters can be defined as fixed or variable text. For instance, a parameter such as -Cnn that indicates the camera number (for example “–C12”) can include the fixed prefix -C and a variable part that defines the actual video input number (see VIDEOIN_NO below) according to the selection in the runtime software.
Here below is an XML example of parameter configuration including all types of variables. The viewer expects up to 3 parameters. The first parameter (/t=…) is us- er defined and can be different depending on the MM8000 condition (plant browser navigation or event treatment). The second parameter (/in=…) is the video input number associated with the current selection in MM8000.
Integrating a DVR </properties> The TYPE and ID attributes must correspond with the folder type: Video Input Folder: TYPE 20, ID 1000 Video Output Folder: TYPE 30, ID 2000 Alarm Input Folder: TYPE 50, ID 3000 Alarm Output Folder: TYPE 60, ID 4000 According to the Composer requirements, both a Customer Text and a Technical Text must be specified.
Integrating a DVR 2.4.4 Examples of XML file 2.4.4.1 Windows application viewer This example refers to a Windows application viewer that is started with a com- mand line such as: C:\Program Files\VGMaker\VGViewer.EXE -AP1 –AR1 –I192.168.9.112 –C12 –TViewer –W120,200,100,100 -P In Composer, the Program file pathname as well as the following parameters can be configured: ...
For example: http://www.siemens.com/milansite/vipiteno/videosurveillance/cam#01.html The suffix #01 must change to #02, #03 and so on to address other video sources. The Composer project includes a predefined folder for the video inputs (up to 16) that have to be manually added according to the site configuration <?xml version="1.0"...
Integrating a DVR 2.4.4.3 Web-based viewer type 2 This example refers to a Web-based viewer that is started with a URL line that is configured individually in Composer for each video input, up to 255 inputs. The Composer project includes a predefined folder for the video inputs that have to be manually added according to the site configuration <?xml version="1.0"...
Support the start, stop and window control methods described below. Windows start methods MM8000 must be able to identify the viewer main window in the list provided by the EnumThreadWindows function. The viewer must support at least one of the follow- ing ways techniques (listed according to their priority): ...

4 Creating an MM8000 Add-on distribution package Add-on installation kit The MM8000 files for configuring a Generic DVR are distributed as an add-on kit to be installed after the standard MM8000 software setup. Starting from an add-on kit template, you can create the add-on installation kit with your own files and easily install your Generic DVR configuration package on each MM8000 system that re- quires it.
