ote monitoring of CCTV cameras over a network. Personal computers have revolutionised the way that people access information today. They are also changing the way in which video data can be captured and transmitted. It is becoming increasingly easier and more cost-effective than ever for companies to turn to digital systems for the transmission and storage of video images. And, it is now possible for companies to monitor digital video images over an ethernet network (LAN/WAN) using the most common communication standard - IP (Internet protocol), and put that information to use - from a distance. It takes analogue video signals and transmits high quality pictures via TCP/IP network using the professional JPEG compression standard. No additional hardware or software is needed. Each unit can transmit up to four cameras over the network - to provide independent, remote server management - using a standard web browser (such as Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator etc.). The merging of analogue and digital systems is particularly relevant in the surveillance market, where the integration of both technologies is bringing even more functionality and more flexibility to Siemens' existing CCTV ranges - at lower cost. The TELSCAN Web Server from Siemens is a compact, standalone surveillance device for the remote viewing of video images. 3
Use your existing computer network to monitor video 1 Many shops, car parks, warehouses or offices already have cameras installed and most desks already have a PC on them - simply by adding a TELSCAN Web Server, these camera images can then be viewed anywhere on the network and it is as simple as counting to three: positions, allowing simple and quick control. When an alarm is activated, images can be automatically transmitted over the network and full control of the cameras on site is remotely enabled - in this way, the system does away with the need and expense for fulltime guards constantly patrolling any site. 2 3 PTZ Control, including presets. 1 Plug in the camera signal 2 Plug in the ethernet cable 3 View images anywhere on the network It s that simple! TELSCAN Web Server transmits high quality pictures (up to 25 images per second), therefore is ideal for monitoring locations or acting as a 'virtual receptionist, even providing 'virtual tours' of businesses, manufacturing or retail premises - you can show guests or prospective customers around several different locations - without even leaving the office - making huge savings in time, effort and cost. TELSCAN Web Server will display images on request or, according to configurable events, will independently send e-mails with images attached - for example at 10 am everyday, an e-mail can be sent containing snapshot images of all cameras, ensuring they have no problems, or if required on receiving an alarm, a snapshot can be taken and e-mailed. Applications TELSCAN Web Server is suitable for a diverse range of CCTV surveillance and monitoring applications in car parks, schools, public buildings, factories, production plants, warehouses, shops, hotels etc. It can also be used as a simple, practical means to perform other more mundane tasks. For instance, at an entry barrier when an incoming driver presses the button to gain admission, TELSCAN Web Server will automatically transmit an image to an operator's desk to signal the need for the barrier to be lifted - with the added advantage that a snapshot of the vehicle and its license plate can then be taken before allowing entry to the site or car park. Supermarkets with cameras on the aisles could monitor the interest from the public and actually see if promotional sales are successful. Time is saved, as all the regional stores can be viewed from one location. Control It can even display images in a "Mini-TV" format which can be put in any position, at any size on the PC monitor screen, eliminating the need for opening the web browser - also saving an unsightly security monitor sat on the desk. And, a variety of serial interfaces and digital inputs/outputs are available for connecting external devices such as alarms or PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) devices - an on screen keyboard ensures full telemetry controls are available, including calling and setting preset Mini-TV screen showing live images of reception placed on desktop. 4
images from your existing CCTV cameras Water Authorities could access images remotely to monitor reservoir or river water levels from a distance. The simple operation and functionality of TELSCAN Web Server, together with its versatility, mean that monitoring and management of video devices is readily achieveable via a network and web browser - and because it uses an established network, TELSCAN Web Server needs no extensive cabling - again keeping costs and disruption to an absolute minimum. Integration Simple retrofit upgrade - many offices, shops, buildings already have cameras installed. Simply insert the TELSCAN Web Server between the camera and an ethernet port and view the images from the camera anywhere on the network. Access is restricted to three password protected security levels for viewing images, controlling PTZ devices and setup. And, when used in conjunction with SIMATRIX (Siemens' video matrix), TELSCAN Web Server can be connected via RS232 to remotely switch up to 99 cameras and transmit them over the network. The benefits, like the camera images, are there for all to see: Easy to install - simply connect to camera and plug into network port Use existing CCTV cameras Needs no separate cabling - use existing ethernet network Multi-user, multiple-functionality at low cost Connect up to 4 cameras per unit Control PTZ devices Interfaces with motion detectors, sensors, door contacts etc. Real-time viewing of events Scaleable bandwidth for picture transmission Advanced alarm handling including sending e-mails & picture snapshots 3 level password security For example, with the alarm monitor output on the matrix connected as an input to the TELSCAN Web Server, when the system goes into alarm, it will automatically transmit the images from the camera in alarm over the network. The operator receiving these images can then remotely switch the other cameras to check the area completely - thereby providing an efficient and cost-effective method of visual verification for any alarm. 5
Viewing a site over LAN Internal monitoring with PTZ control - how busy is the store? - how long are the queues? - are there enough people on the tills? Warehouse with combined detector & camera - PIR to alarm if anyone goes in the warehouse? - view images of who they are? - should they be there? Delivery Entrance - has the delivery van arrived? - are the doors still open? - who is having a cigarette? Outside building with PTZ control - is the entrance clear? - are there enough trolleys at the front? - does the entrance look tidy? Promotional viewing - how many people are viewing the latest promotion? - what are people looking at first? - are they mainly men or women? Carpark monitoring - are employees using customer parking? - who parked across two bays? - is that car being vandalized?

Technical data. Sofware Tools For the IT manager, software tools included with TELSCAN Web Server include IP Manager and Live Player. IP Manager is great for searching the network for connected Web Server devices, rather than trying to remember the IP addresses. These are then presented in a telephone book view, including the location name for easy identification. Simply selecting the location and and hitting the button Home page of selected server, opens the site via a web browser - it s as straight forward as that! If the network does not allow the use of web browsers, then the Siemens viewer Live Player enables viewing of cameras. Similar to the IP Manager, a telephone book is presented, however the Live Player program opens. Multiple Live Players can be opened for different sites, or different cameras and all displayed on a PC at the same time. Shortcuts can be configured and placed on the PC desk top - with a double click these automatically open the desired TELSCAN Web Server with the required camera and picture size, including the possibility to open in Mini-TV format. Icons can be easily identified with useful site names.

With 8 MB of memory, it is possible to load "html" pages and have your own miniwebsite stored on the web server. On a PC, simply save the website address in the Favourites and select it to load the website, showing an overview of the site, with icons for the cameras - click on the icon to see its images - simple for everyone...
