About

Cayuga consists of various services that communicate with each other within a closed network and over the Internet. Installations are possible on multiple computers, and an unlimited number of servers, clients and devices can be added to the system. In addition, the database can be installed at multiple distributed sites (multicore) to ensure network independence.

The system essentially consists of server applications and client applications.

  • One or more server applications manage the connected devices and databases, providing the clients with the required data.
  • A client application has a user interface that makes one or more modes available to the user (see below). Multiple client applications can access a single server application.

You can choose between the following events: Alarms (events that occur), Users (display of events that concern specific users), Camera usage (display of events that concern a specific camera), System messages (display of events that concern specific services). Select the desired events, specify dates and times to define the time period and start the query. Only the events that meet the selected criteria are displayed in the main window.
