The list of cameras specified in the configuration panel for the Partition Of Control object defines the cameras whose archives can be accessed through the Search in Archive interface object (see the document Monitoring Software Package: Operator's Guide). In addition, this list defines the cameras whose state and archives are monitored by Agent of Control.

...

  1. If cameras are specified in the list, Agent of Control works in normal mode: it monitors the state of cameras and their archives. Server of Control receives information about the number of cameras, disks, disk volume, etc.
  2. If no cameras are specified in the list, Agent of Control checks for the presence of a Long-term Archive Backup archive object in the system and gets information about disks from this object. In this case, Server of Control will receive information only for the disks marked in the Long-term Archive object Backup archive object. Access to the archive is not performed from the Search in Archive interface object during this process.
  3. If no cameras are indicated in Agent of Control settings and there is no Long-term Archive object Backup archive object in the configuration, information about disks is taken from the Computer object; the disks indicated for storage of the main archive are taken into account. Access to the archive is not performed from the Search in Archive interface object during this process.
