TOOLS
ViSTA Networking Solutions
VNS Tools are non-recording solutions intended to make the job of installation or project sizing/quoting
easier.  These have been developed with the installer or project manager in mind.  
Installation Tool: VistaPoint
The VistaPoint is an IP Camera Field Kit intended to ease installations by providing a light weight hand
held computer with an IP Discovery Tool.  The VistaPoint is the IP equivalent to the Analog Field Monitor.  
The tool connects directly to the RJ-45 port of the IP camera, discovers the IP address and then can be
used to launch the camera's web browser.  Once the browser is launched the installation technician can
change any parameter, set the field of view and focus of  the camera - all while on a ladder.  The VistaPoint
is a kit which includes the hand help Windows computer, external battery, the PINPOINT from Veracity, IP
Discovery Tool, neck strap and duffel bag.

Configuration Tool
The VNS Configuration Assistant is designed to easily match the application's system requirements with a
VNS modular V-Series Standard Product.  The Configuration Assistant provides an ordering part number
for most applications.  For those instances where the surveillance system is unique enough to require a
specialty or custom product with Tool will return a "Call Factory" message - we then use this information to
develop a solution for your needs.  The below graphic shows the form and input variables which can be
modified in order to generate the NVR configuration for a specific application.  The Configuration Assistant
is available to our Sales Partners so

Motion Estimation Tool
The VNS Motion Estimation Tool is an Excel spreadsheet which calculates the overall motion for a camera
over the archive duration period.  The tool was specifically developed to aide system designers estimate
the amount of recording time for motion based systems with defined "opened" and "closed" traffic patterns.
Typical examples would be schools, retail outlets, factories or any other site that exhibit these patterns of
operation.  The user merely needs to define the "open" and "closed" hours of operation, the expected
motion during those times, the number of days the establishment is open and the duration of the archive
period.  The tool returns the overall motion and an estimated number of hours of recording.  Down load the
