1. Software Introduction
1.1 Overview
RVMS Pro is latest developed client software for our products. The suppressible toolbar, succinct GUI and
rich functionality make it very intelligent and user-friendly monitoring management software which can
be used in various scenes.
This software could be used for connecting kinds of devices, such as DVS, DVR and so on. This
introduction only presents the operation on software, if need detail function settings please refer to
product specification.
1.1.1 User & privacy management

RVMS Pro supports three-level organization management system, user management and permissions
management.
1.1.2 Use data interface

System data interaction use data interface could support kinds of database flexibly, like SQL, MYSQL, and
XML.
1.1.3 Support edit and add device by Excel table

Allows users to import or export devices using the binary files (filename extension：bin), much easier in
coping with the maintenance of a large batch devices which improves system’s usability and significantly
reduces the workload of maintenance.
1.1.4 Smart video transmission protocol

Using the Smart video transmission protocol, the system can fully utilize the bandwidth of a network.
Especially in situations when the bandwidth of the front-end network condition was limited. The system
can still operate under a narrow bandwidth, without reducing the quality of the images.
1.1.5 Perfected video surveillance system

Allows the real-time surveillance and many other abilities such as alarm activated video record,
auto-surveillance record, record playback and etc.
1.1.6 Dynamic decoding buffer adjust

The real-time surveillance is able to modify the priority setting between the video’s fluency and it’s
real-timing with flexibility. Should the user choose to give fluency the priority; the system will provide
much fluent images. Otherwise, the system will focus on providing real-time images. Thus, the system is
capable of satisfying all kinds of needs.
1.1.7 Centralized management
All the data of the system is under centralized management. This allows remote users to conduct
real-time surveillance and video playback via internet.
1.1.8 Fine operability

With the control authority, users can control and configure every surveillance post via client software and
also has an E-map function integrated.
1.1.9 High integration level

Other kinds of relevant information such as alarm information, voice message are also integrated in the
system.
1.1.10 High reliability

There is also a fault-tolerant mechanism designed for the system, in order to keep the data intact, and to
keep the system reliable.
1.1.11 Fine expansibility

Service-oriented system design provides fine ability to expand and to adapt which can considerably
protect user’s investments.
1.1.12 Allows multi-channel playback

Able to connect to multiple devices and cheek their video (both real-time and playback).

refreshes the bonding relationship of the domain and the IP regularly.
33
 Operation
 Select CPPlus DDNS and click on check box to enable DDNS service.
 User can input self-defined domain name in Domain name field.
 Click on Apply button, device will check the availability of defined domain name on DDNS server.
If same Domain name already registered on server then it will prompt message neither it will
register domain name on server.
 After successfully created Domain Name, click on OK button to save settings.
Important - Do not register frequently. The interval between two registrations shall be more than 60
seconds. Too many registration requests may result in server attack.
 PPPoE
Through the PPPOE, The recorder can be remotely accessed through Wide Area Network. This requires an
exclusive dial-up networking. PPPoE interface is shown as in Figure 6.11.
Figure 6.11
 To Enable disable PPPoE.
