“Customers will find SmartViewer V4.0 very easy to use,” said Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager for Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd. Other user-friendly features include drag & drop camera selection, H.264, MPEG-4 and MJPEG support, a real-time event list and a 24 language display. It also facilitates the remote updating of a device’s firmware and can therefore save time and money by negating the need for an installer to carry out a site visit. Users can choose to simultaneously display images from up to 16 cameras in various split-screen modes and can save a ‘favourite’ configuration for future use.Ī key feature of SmartViewer V4.0 is a device manager which automatically scans for connected IP cameras, encoders and NVRs and enables the importing/exporting of device settings. SmartViewer V4.0 is designed for video surveillance systems with up to 36 cameras and enables any authorised user with access to the Internet to view live or search for recorded video captured by connected cameras via a Samsung DVR or NVR.

Samsung Techwin has confirmed an updated version of its SmartViewer central management software supports the company’s IP network video surveillance devices, as well as its analogue cameras, domes and DVRs.
