4. Installation
----------------------------
Perform the following steps to install the C•CURE 9000 Sony NSR Integration:

Note: Before starting the installation process, stop the Crossfire Services.
 
 1. Insert the Connected Program Driver DVD into a DVD drive on your C•CURE 9000 
    system. The Connected Program Driver DVD Welcome screen should display 
    automatically.
 2. Click the Install Products button. The Driver DVD determines which version 
    of C•CURE 9000 is installed on your system and displays the available products
    on the right side of the screen.
 3. Click the Sony NSR button from the displayed list. The InstallShield 
    Wizard begins installing the software, and after the initial C•CURE 9000 splash 
    screen displays, the Sony NSR Video Drivers Welcome screen appears.
 4. Click Next and follow the Installshield Wizard prompts. (Software House 
    recommends that you accept all defaults during the installation process.)   
 5. Click Finish to complete the Installation and restart the computer.
 6. Restart the Crossfire Services.
 7. Open the Sony_NSR_Integration_User_Guide.pdf and read the guide for information 
    about using the C•CURE 9000 Sony NSR Integration product.

5. Problems Fixed in this Release
----------------------------
This is the initial release of the Sony NSR Integration product.
----------------------------

6. Limitations
----------------------------

 1. Sony does not support overlay on the video camera viewer.
 2. In recorded video mode, Sony video cameras do not support snapshot and refresh 
    camera.
 3. The Sony Recorded player sometimes shows the wrong frames for the requested 
    times-displaying frames that begin before the requested start time, after 
    that requested start time, or even after the requested end time. 
 4. When a record camera action is configured for an alarm in motion, the video is 
    recorded on the NSR and the video icon displays in the activity 
    viewer and the journal. While clicking the icon can show the recorded video, 
    because Sony has the problem described in Limitation #3 above where 
    the recorded player may show the wrong frames, sometimes the video will not 
    display. If this should happen and the video does not display, wait at least 
    one minute and then click the icon to play the video again.
 5. Sony NSR can only configure presets starting from 1. While C•CURE 9000 has the 
    preset 0, it does not perform any functionality with this preset.
 6. Sony cameras support only motion, analytics, and video loss alarms, and Sony 
    servers support only online and offline alarms.
 7. Video Patterns are not supported for Sony.
 8. The Sony Recorded player does not resize. Consequently, the Recorded player 
    works best when played in pop up view. In addition, Sony does not support 
    playing back recorded video when the video is in View mode.
 9. Sony NSR is not supported on Windows Vista client.
