1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE

This manual covers common monitoring and logging applications. Setting up alerting thresholds,
user administration and system configuration are covered in the Observer Admin Guide.

1.2. SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Observer system consists of one or more encoder servers (probes), usually located in remote
or unmanned video distribution centers. Each server is capable of monitoring several video inputs
simultaneously, typically connected to four video sources through its encoders. The Central/web
server (CS) interfaces the system to the web client machines (client PCs). Usually the system
administrator configures the web and probe server addresses and functions of the system.

Once configured, the system constantly records video and monitors for various kinds of failures.

2. GETTING STARTED

2.1. PC CLIENT REQUIREMENTS
To access the Observer from a client machine you will need:

Windows 7, 64 bit OS 3.5GB RAM or above
Sound card
Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 8 browser
Windows Media Player 11 or greater installed
Pentium 4 3.0 GHz or equivalent processor recommended
Minimum NVIDIA or ATI video adapter
User with local administrative privileges to install signed ActiveX control
Minimum 10 Mbps network connection bandwidth: 1.2-1.5 times the sum of viewed
stream's bandwidth, i.e., display two 512 Kbps streams smoothly, 1.2-1.5 Mbps of
bandwidth is needed
URL or IP address to the Web server placed in the browser Trusted Sites zone
Silverlight support if used for clients other than IE
Pease verify the client machine requirements before proceeding. In general a more powerful
client machine will display more numerous concurrent video streams. However, the system
logging and monitoring effectiveness is independent of the client machines.


5

2.2. LOGGING IN

To access the Observer system

Start Internet Explorer
Enter Observer server URL

2.2.1. First Time Access

At first time access from a client PC machine (and
system upgrades) to the Observer media player will be
installed. You will be presented with a warning strip
towards the top of the screen
Accept it
Run Add-on
Accept the Security Warning
Accept defaults (Check if prompts are hidden
behind other forms to continue install)
Download the media player

If the CMM (optional module) is used, the Reckon client will be installed in addition to the
Observer media player.

3. HOME PAGE - FAVORITES

Select Favorite channels in the Dashboard out of many possible. This way a large system can be
managed with ease - to access, click the Home Favorites icon (1). Favorites are available only
if enabled (Maintenance Settings, RPM Admin Guide).

Then select Check Streams of Interest (2) from the bottom half of the page and press the
Add to Favorites (3) - these will be moved up to the selected Encoder/streams section, top
half of the Favorites page and will redefine players accordingly on the Home page.

Follow a similar procedure with the Remove from Favorites (4) at the top half of the page.

Favorites (1)
Add to Favorites (3)
Check Streams of Interest (2)
(4) Remove from Favorites


8
3.1. HOME PAGE

The Home page is the main monitoring interface of the Observer system. Here you select the
various players to view live broadcasts, playback video channels and create clips for later review:

To test the channels, display video streams with the <Live> button on the right of the Control-
bar. Verify that all the Encoder/streams are working before proceeding to the next step.

If no streams appear, check the Favorites configuration, otherwise your system probably doesnt
have the encoders configured. See Stream Control in the Observer Admin Guide.

If encoder/streams appear but there is no video in them, it could be related to TCP streaming
port not being open, therefore contact your network administrator.

The Monitoring page is broken down into several key areas:

3.1.1. Player Display Area

The viewing area displays the selected video streams located above the player Control-bar as
show in the figure above.

3.1.2. Logging Out

After completing your work-session it is important to Logout in order to save system
resources. Logout is located at the top right of the Home page (and other pages).
