I – QNAP Security Releases QSCM Lite App Empowering the VioStor NVR with CMS Server Functionalities

Introduction

QNAP Surveillance Central Management Lite (QSCM Lite) is a powerful and free app supported by QVR 5.0 (and above) that allows you to easily manage up to 16 QNAP NVRs and 256 cameras. No extra hardware or software is required to add the CMS server function to a NVR – all you have to do is install the QSCM Lite App from the App Center.

QSCM Lite can manage NVRs that are in the same private LAN with QSCM Lite.

Taipei, Taiwan, June 25, 2014 – QNAP® Security today announced the new app “QNAP Surveillance Central Management Lite” (QSCM Lite) which empowers a single VioStor NVR with the abilities of CMS server to centrally manage multiple NVR units. QSCM Lite is a revolutionary and powerful app that is available for downloading – free of charge – from the QVR 5.0 App Center and installing on a VioStor NVR.

“QSCM Lite provides four major benefits including ease-of-use, cost-efficiency, convenience and flexibility for users to enjoy the power of a CMS server with the VioStor NVR,” said Angela Liu, product manager of QNAP Security. Instead of purchasing a dedicated CMS server, users can simply install QSCM Lite on a VioStor NVR and utilize the CMS solution with their existing IP network structure. It also provides the flexibility for users to run NVR & CMS services simultaneously on the same VioStor, or just to have either one service.

QSCM Lite provides a hands-on CMS solution with the VioStor NVR, enabling users to centrally monitor, playback and manage up to 256 IP cameras from up to 16 VioStor NVRs at different locations with greater flexibility. Users can easily use the web-based QSCM Lite user interface to remotely control and monitor the QSCM Lite server and enjoy greater convenience in management.

Availability

QSCM Lite is available from the VioStor NVR App Center. It requires firmware QVR 5.0 or newer versions. For more information about QSCM Lite, please visit http://goo.gl/Lzob4b.
