Application

.:Java Applet Mode
The Java Applet is OS independent and can be streamed through any JAVA enabled application or device. It can run on any Operating System such as Windows, Mac, Unix, Linux, OS/2, or any other device such as PDA or cell phone that supports JAVA applets. Support for JAVA applet is generally built into the Web Browser so there is no need to download and install anything on your computer. Perfect for situation where you can't install the Voyager because of security settings or you are on someone else's computer.

.:Voyager Mode
The Voyager is an ActiveX control that will download and install automatically on your computer. It supports many more features than the JAVA applet including the ability to record and provides a much faster frame rate due to the JAVA applet limitations.

.:Customize Web Pages
All of the web pages that are stored in the FlexWATCH can be customized to reflect your company's look. With a customized webpage, when someone accesses your FlexWATCH they will see your customized pages that can advertise your products or your company. For small to medium size companies you can have this be your company's main website, save the money you would spend on hiring someone else to host your site.

.:FTP Server and Client
You can setup the FlexWATCH to send images to an FTP server at a specified time or whenever an alarm is triggered. A few applications for this are:
- Use your doorbell as an alarm input and have the FlexWATCH upload an image of the person at your
door to an FTP site whenever the doorbell is rung.
- Upload an images every 24 hours to create a time-lapse video of a construction project
- Upload every 1 second and display on website if live video is not possible

.:Security and External Device Control
FlexWATCH video server not only transmit crisp real time live video, but also have many other features that enables users to apply this system for almost any application. Some of the security features include password protected server access, images encryption, and IP filtering. Other external security features include alarm sensor input and relay output control. The FlexWATCH has an RS-232/485 bus for communication with any external device such as a pan/tilt/zoom camera, access control, multiplexers, VCRs, or any other RS-232/485 compatible device.

.:Recording and Playback
With the free Voyager software you can record live video streams from the FlexWATCH right to your hard drive for playback. Recording options include time reservation, motion detection, alarm sensor, snapshot JPG, or forced recording. The player software allows for searching of the recorded video by date and time as well as many other features such as fast forward, rewind, zoom, and convert to AVI for viewing on any computer running Microsoft Windows.

.:Email Images
Receive an email in your inbox or cell phone whenever an alarm is triggered. You can even customize the email with 5 lines of text. Now you can be immediately notified if someone breaks into your home, work, or any other type of alarm notification.

.:Alarm Inputs
Hook any time of alarm input to the FlexWATCH and have it trigger an action. The FlexWATCH can email you, upload an image to an FTP site, or simply alert you on your computer.

.:Relay Outputs
The relay outputs can trigger an external device to do something. Through custom controls on the website you can click a button and have the FlexWATCH trigger a relay. This can be anything from a dialer to call your cell phone or pager, locking or unlocking doors from over the Internet, turning on lights, triggering an audible alarm, or any other external device that can be triggered by a relay. The possibilities are endless.

.:RS-232/485 Control
The FlexWATCH has a RS-232/485 bus that can be used to control any device that operates on a RS-232 or RS-485 bus. Control any PTZ directly through the website from anywhere in the world. Most of the standard PTZ protocols are already supported, but any PTZ can be controlled with custom commands. Also control any device such as a VCR, multiplexer, or home automation system.

.:Video Quality Adjustments
The FlexWATCH can produce images from a very low quality that will increase frame rate to an extremely high quality for better clarity. It can also produce those images in a total of 5 different resolutions. In addition, you can adjust the brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation. (Quality, 5 levels : lowest, low, normal, high, highest; Size: 5 levels from 176 x 112 to 704 x 480)

.:Time Server
The FlexWATCH supports the TIME protocol so it can be programmed with a TIME server and automatically go out to the Internet and set itself with an accurate time and date.

.:Web Server Port Change
All web servers listen for requests for pages on Port 80. The FlexWATCH gives you the ability to change that port to anything under Port 9999, which helps in many different situations:
- Security - Now hackers don't know which port your FlexWATCH is running on and cannot access
it via simple port scanning.
- A lot of lower end ISP's block requests on port 80 so that you cannot run a web server. Now you
can change the port to a different port that is not blocked.
- Run multiple FlexWATCH servers behind NAT all using a different port. Normally this would be limited
to only a single server if only 80 could be used.

.:Dial-in and Dial-out
If DSLx, cable modem, or other high-speed broadband access is not available, the FlexWATCH can be accessed via a standard external dialup modem. You can either dial-in to the FlexWATCH or have the FlexWATCH automatically dial-up to your ISP and logon to the internet at a specified time period or upon alarm notification.

.:AOIP Service
Without a static IP Address it is difficult to know the IP address of your FlexWATCH when it logs onto the Internet via DHCP. Most DSLx providers use dynamic IP address assignment so the IP Address changes every day, or once a week. With the AOIP service the FlexWatch registers it's new IP address with the AOIP server every time it's address changes. Now all you have to do is logon to the AOIP server and it will have your FlexWATCH's latest IP address listed.

.:CGI for Application Developers
Application developers can build custom applications to interface and communicate with the FlexWATCH to suit their specific needs. The video can be integrated into your business' current applications or you can build an application to make the FlexWATCH do exactly what you want it to do if those features do not currently exist. Many 3rd party applications have been developed to do more specialized things that were needed to fit the exact need of the company.

.:Network Based DVR Solution
With the FlexWATCH Manager and/or Network Storage Server (NSS-1016) you can create a network based recording solution that eliminates the need for expensive cabling. You can also record many different sites (up to 36) all in one location. Instead of having to record at each store or site you can have all of that take place at the corporate office or at your home.

.:Full Duplex Audio
All of the newer model of the FlexWATCH with the "A" suffix support full duplex audio transmission. The V10 Audio Module allows users with the Voyager to speak and listen to and from the remote location. This opens up possibilities for many different applications. The V10 uses the G.723 audio codec that compresses the audio at very low bit rate and at very high quality using less than 10Kbit of bandwidth.
