C O O L S T U F F Video Surveillance VIDEO MANAGEMENT
SOFTWARE Avigilon Control Center 4.6 captures, transmits, man- ages, stores, archives, plays back and exports HD video while efficiently handling bandwidth and storage. Its modular, open architecture allows it to be integrated with existing analogue and IP cameras,
access control and intrusion systems. New features include: ex- panded user permissions management and audit trail capabili- ties, image panel/video management enhancements to allow ‘in-panel’ acknowledgment of alarms from within the monitored video stream, and activation of digital outputs from within the monitored video stream, enabling guards to open a gate or trigger a siren or alarm directly from the video.
