AxxonSoft introduces version 4.9.0 of Axxon PSIM

AxxonSoft has released version 4.9.0 of the Axxon PSIM platform. This version is focused on new capabilities and features that are taking Axxon PSIM to the next level of performance and efficiency.

Here are the key new features in the version:

Axxon PSIM 4.9.0 transmits video and performs forensic search of recorded video on 64-bit computing platforms. This allows boosting security system performance. 64-bit versions of the Video and Forensic Search modules blow away the RAM limits that are inherent to 32-bit systems. This flexibility is essential at large and geographically dispersed sites, as well as at sites that make extensive use of HD video and forensic detection tools. 64-bit modules offer a performance boost, which can mean enormous savings. By reducing the number of computers needed to support a given number of cameras, this 64-bit modernization can have a substantial positive impact on the bottom line.

Axxon PSIM 4.9.0 is capable of multistreaming, which means that it can offer several video streams from IP cameras. By dedicating a stream for video analytics, you can apply the full range of abilities of forensic video analysis at your site. Axxon PSIM 4.9.0 server is able to receive up to four video streams, which can be used for three different purposes:

• for display on a local monitor and for streaming to remote workstations;
• archive recording;
• video analytics.

Multistreaming makes the most of its potential when combined with another new tool - GreenStream, which automatically selects the most efficient video stream that can meet the resolution needs of the current task. GreenStream flexibly adapts to system conditions, so CPU cycles are freed up on servers and monitoring workstations. This allows using less powerful computers, or handling more video streams on a single computer.

In version 4.9.0, a remote computer can get video from a camera and display it directly on the remote monitor, by passing the server to which the camera is connected. Connecting direct-to-camera saves resources, reducing the server load and easing server performance requirements. For Axxon PSIM 4.9.0, a mobile client has been developed. It allows remotely monitoring everything that goes on at the site, including:

• viewing of video (with audio) from any camera
• information about alarms
• interactive maps
• macros for preconfigured responses to events
• object management (arm/disarm cameras and sensors, start/stop camera recording, etc.)
• push notifications about events

Axxon PSIM 4.9.0 is compatible with Windows 8.1 and Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 SP1. This enhances system’s capabilities and makes it a multipurpose tool.

New PTZ protocols of well-known manufacturers as well as new PTZ controllers have been integrated.

The installer for version 4.9.0 of the Axxon PSIM, release notes, and documentation are available here.
