      The Series 2 Controller contains a Windows style user interface. Here the user can view the 16 camera images at 1/2 resolution in real time and select individual images for real time, full resolution viewing. An identical web page accessible via a browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape) is available for remote monitoring. This web page sequentially scans through the 16 camera images using a predetermined amount of network bandwidth. Only changes to the images are transmitted. The user can optionally select an individual image for full resolution viewing, utilizing all available network bandwidth.

      The Series 2 Controller archives the images to hard disk at full resolution in a compressed format. The unit only stores video when changes are detected in the scene. The user can set 48 sensitivity zones per camera for determining when a change in the video has occurred.

      The Series 2 Controller also contains play and search features. Using the local user interface or via a web page, the user can play selected sequences of images from any camera over a selected time interval. The user can also utilize a search feature to look for the image captured under specific conditions. These conditions include video motion or the state of a selectable number of control ports.

      Finally, the Series 2 Controller contains a programmable controller feature. The control program is entered through the Windows user interface, and consists of a series of menu based control parameters which are simple, flexible, and easy to understand. This control program can be viewed and its operation dynamically altered through a web page.  Emails can be sent when specified events occur or for camera failures.
