The number of items is determined by the DVR hardware and the protocol used. In
addition, if the system is configured with the CCTV advanced feature and a CCTV
Switch, the number of Cameras and Monitors is determined by the capacity of the
CCTV Switch.
The prefix letters for the item are automatically inserted by the CCTV/AV
Configuration window.
The number is selected by the user. The following rules must be followed:
 AV Switches must be numbered consecutively starting from AV0001.
 For Cameras and Monitors the number must match the hardware address at
the AV Switch. There is no automatic checking whether the number is
correct. Where a large number of Monitors and Cameras is installed it is
recommended that the installing engineer develops a plan for the addressing
process, so that the correct numbers can be entered into the CCTV/AV
Configuration window.
Additional recommendations are as follows:
 Connect Cameras and Monitors to the low-numbered addresses at the
AV
Switch in order to keep the number of AV Server namespace entries as
small as possible.
 For easier operations, define the most frequently used equipment with
numbers that will appear in the AV Player window, that is: AV0001 to
AV0006 for AV Switches, M0001 to M0020 for Monitors, andC0001 to
C0040 for Cameras.
NOTE
The CCTV Server system uses intrinsic addressing, so it is recommended
that you do not change the address of the items once they have been
configured. If you do, you may find that actions that use intrinsic
addressing (for example, OPCWrite event actions) refer to a different item.
Defining the Number of Namespace Items
When you create and configure items for the CCTV Server, you need to give each
item in the namespace a number. The range of numbers permitted is dependent on
the number of items configured for the namespace.
A feature of the software allows the namespace items to be configured
automatically. You can decide whether the total number of items in the namespace is
based on the default number of names defined by DVR protocol, or whether it is
based on a specific user-defined number.
Automatic configuration of the namespace items is useful for the initial software
setup. It allows you to have a working system after just configuring a CCTV Server
and an AV Switch with the DVR protocol defaults, and connecting the Cameras and
Monitors to a valid address at the AV Switch.
