Hardware Compatibility for Analytics

Hardware Compatibility

NOTE: The number of supported channels of server-side analytics will vary depending on both hardware configuration and the analytics or other features enabled. Achieving the specified performance metrics necessitates configuring the server-side analytics to utilize a low-resolution stream set at 640x480 or lower. Failure to adhere to this resolution setting in Apex Server Software Version 3.1.1 and above will result in the channel count being cut to 1/3 of its capacity. Additionally, due to technical limitations in querying the resolution of RTSP streams, these will be defaulted to 1/3 of the maximum channel count.

Additionally, to ensure optimal performance, we recommend using the system metric tools provided in the OWS Server Software Setup. To view the system metric tools, go to Setup Options Gear.png > Cameras under General Configuration and click on the specific camera, then click on the Analytics tab.

The table below displays the estimated maximum number of channels that would be supported when deploying a specific analytic type. This does not account for a combination of Server-Side Analytics and Smart Motion channels running concurrently or other features that may be running on the device (e.g. local console or spot monitor).

NOTE: Live View in Console and Local Spot Monitor are disabled once Smart Motion is enabled for J1900 and J3455 CPUs in order to reserve resources.

NOTE: To achieve maximum channel count for server-side analytics on all Linux models, unplug the monitor from the device to disable the local console.

* Supported Server-Side Analytic types are Person Detected, Vehicle Detected, Line Crossing Detected, Loitering, and Intrusion
