Camera registration server settings

overview

This section explains the settings on the Panel Server side required for the camera registration screen library.

 

In addition, for standard projects generated using the standard framework, the necessary settings are usually already configured, so there is no need to configure them manually.

The steps introduced here should be performed in the following cases:

 

•For your own projects that do not use standard frameworks.

•If you are using the Standard Framework but required settings such as Shared Folders have been removed.

 

 

hint

The steps introduced on this page assume that the root folder of the Panel Server application settings/system settings is set as follows. Also, when importing actions from a sample, the settings for each action are set with a relative path. This setting allows the project to continue working even if the folder name or folder hierarchy of the project folder changes.

If you do not specify a root folder, such as when importing a screen library into your own project, make adjustments according to the project environment, such as making sure the relative path reference locations match, or defining the reference destination of each file with an absolute path. For details, see "System Settings" in the Panel Server application settings.

From the driver list, add "Memory", "Virtual Communications", and "Memory Device", and name the unit "Sys".

Once the new folder has been added, change the name of the folder to "Common".

This completes all the necessary settings.
