Software Components
NVR Installation
When the DETEXI NVR is installed, several applications are placed on the server PC, each with their own responsibility.
  • By default, the DETEXI NVR components and files are installed in the C:\Program Files\CamServer folder (32-bit processor) or C:\Program Files(x86)\CamServer folder (64-bit processor).
  • By default, NVR Control Center configuration database — NVR.MDB file — is located:
    For Windows XP — C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\CNSG Inc\NVR
    For Windows 7 — C:\ProgramData\Application Data\CNSG Inc\NVR
NVR Control Center DETEXI NVR Control Center
DETEXI NVR Control Center is the DETEXI NVR Graphic User Interface (GUI) and serves as a tool for communication between administrator and the DETEXI NVR. Once the DETEXI NVR has been installed on your computer, the NVR Control Center allows you to start and stop the server as well as modify server settings if needed. If DETEXI NVR Server and any cameras in the system are separated by a proxy server, you may need to enter the appropriate proxy settings. DETEXI NVR handles all communication with the cameras/video servers that are included in the system. It also handles recordings, events and user management in the system. The underlying structure of the DETEXI NVR consists of individual services, registered as Windows Services which allow to execute and organize all the tasks it is responsible for.

It only connects to the local DETEXI NVR, does not require the NVR services to be running, and does not require authentication (authentication features are disabled).
