LICENSE INFORMATION
READ THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT BEFORE OPENING THE DISK PACKAGE, INSTALLING THE
SOFTWARE, OR USING YOUR SYSTEM.
THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT DEFINES YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. BY BREAKING THE SEAL
ON THIS PACKAGE, INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE, OR USING YOUR SYSTEM, YOU AGREE TO ALL
OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MAY, WITHIN 30 DAYS, RETURN THIS
PACKAGE, ALL THE DOCUMENTATION, AND ALL ACCOMPANYING MATERIAL(S) TO THE POINT OF
PURCHASE FOR A REFUND.
Software License
The Software includes the computer software, the associated media, any printed material, and any
electronic documentation and may be provided to you installed on a hard drive (the media) as part of a
system. The Software is licensed, not sold.
Grant of License
This agreement between Sensormatic and you permits you to use the Software you purchased. Once you
have purchased the number of copies you require, you may use the Software and accompanying material
provided you use no more than the licensed number of copies at one time. The Software is only licensed for
use with specified Sensormatic supplied equipment. If the Software is protected by a software or hardware
key or other device, the Software may be used on any computer where the key is installed. If the key locks
the Software to a particular System, the Software may only be used on that System.
Other Rights and Limitations
• A demonstration copy of the Software is considered purchased and is covered by this license
agreement.
• You may not de-compile, disassemble, reverse engineer, copy, transfer, or otherwise use the Software
except as stated in this agreement.
• The hardware/software key, where applicable, is your proof of license to exercise the rights granted
herein and must be retained by you.
• If the Software is provided as part of a System, the Software may only be used with the System.
• You may not sub-license, rent or lease the Software, but you may permanently transfer the Software to
another party by delivering the original disk and material comprising the Software package as well as
this license to the other party. Initial use of the Software and accompanying material by the new user
transfers the license to the new user and constitutes the new user’s acceptance of its terms and
conditions.
• Sensormatic reserves the right to revoke this agreement if you fail to comply with the terms and
conditions of this agreement. In such an event, you must destroy all copies of the Software, and all of its
component parts (e.g., documentation, hardware box, software key).
• The Software may contain software from third parties that is licensed under a separate End User
License Agreement (EULA). Read and retain any license documentation that may be included with the
Software. Compliance with the terms of any third party EULA is required as a condition of this
agreement.
Failure to comply with these restrictions will result in automatic termination of this license and will make
available to Sensormatic other legal remedies.
Upgrades
If the Software is an upgrade from another software version, you may use or transfer the Software only as
specified in this agreement. If the Software is an upgrade of a component of a package of Software
programs that you licensed as a single product, the Software may be used and transferred only as part of
that single product package and may not be separated for use on more than one computer.

The Software is a proprietary product of Sensormatic and is protected by both the United States and
International copyright laws.

Limited Warranty
Sensormatic warrants that the recording medium on which the Software is recorded, and the documentation
provided with it, will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for a period of ninety
(90) days from the date of delivery to the first user. Sensormatic further warrants that for the same period,
the software provided on the recording medium under this license will substantially perform as described in
the user documentation provided with the product when used with the specified hardware.
Customer Remedies
Sensormatic’s entire liability and your exclusive remedy under this warranty will be, at Sensormatic’s option,
to a). attempt to correct software errors with efforts we believe suitable to the problem, b). replace at no cost
the recording medium, software or documentation with functional equivalents as applicable, or c). refund
the license fee and terminate this agreement. Any replacement item will be warranted for the remainder of
the original warranty period. No remedy is provided for failure of the diskette or Software if such failure is the
result of accident, abuse, alteration or misapplication. Warranty service or assistance is provided at the
original point of purchase.
No Other Warranties
The above warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to the
implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. No oral or written information or
advice given by Sensormatic, its representatives, distributors or dealers shall create any other warranty,
and you may not rely on such information or advice.
No Liability For Consequential Damages
In no event will Sensormatic be liable to you for damages, including any loss of profits, loss of data or other
incidental or consequential damages arising out of your use of, or inability to use, the Software or its
documentation. This limitation will apply even if Sensormatic or an authorized representative has been
advised of the possibility of such damages. Further, Sensormatic does not warrant that the operation of the
Software will be uninterrupted or error free.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may have other rights that vary from state to state.
Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, or the limitation on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
General
If any provision of the agreement is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that
provision shall be severed from this agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the
remaining provisions. This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida.
You should retain proof of the license fee paid, including model number, serial number and date of payment,
and present such proof of payment when service or assistance covered by this warranty is requested.

are recorded directly to the internal hard drive which allows you quick and easy
access to your recorded images.
A variety of advanced, user-programmable features allow you to customize and
manage video data for your specific needs.
FEATURES
• The Activity Log provides a record of all activity that a user has performed on an
Intellex unit after the user has logged in, such as who changed a setting, which
menus were accessed, what video was downloaded, and so on.
• The Camera Selectable Rate feature lets you assign higher or lower recording rates
to specific cameras.
• The Covert Camera feature permits viewing and recording of video from specified
camera(s) by authorized users only.

Installation and Operating Instructions
2Introduction
• Dome Camera Controls let you adjust dome camera and lens settings. You can
control the camera’s pan and tilt movements; adjust its lens zoom, focus and iris
settings; use preset position settings for instant recall (if supported by the camera);
and select a pattern scan (if supported by the camera).
• Advanced Security provides both local and remote secured access to Intellex units
and to designated Intellex features (downloading and viewing video, setting up a
schedule, etc.) or resources (cameras, alarms, alarm list database, recorded video
database, etc.). Advanced Security requires that Policy Manager be installed on the
network to which Intellex is attached. Policy Manager enables an administrator to
manage secured access to Intellex units and to Network Client.
• Advanced Text search lets you define complex search criteria to find specific
events in a text stream when filtering live video or searching recorded video.
• Video segments can be exported to an optional CD-RW. You can mark the
beginning and end of video segments in Playback Mode to export.
• 320x240 lower resolution recording available, selected in the schedule dialog for
each camera. This resolution can also be selected for alarm recording.
• Enhanced triplex operation provides simultaneous record/display, playback and
archiving.
• Use SmartSearch filters to quickly search the image database for video segments
containing specific types of activity (see Search Operation on page 175).
• Ethernet 10/100 Network Interface allows remote access to video and setup
functions. Dial-up modem is optional.
• Use date and time, camera and alarm criteria to quickly search the image database.
Play back these video segments.
• Records and stores pre-alarm images according to each camera’s pre-alarm setting
(0 to 300 seconds).
• Compatible with color and B&W video cameras or other NTSC/EIA (PAL/CCIR)
standard compatible video sources. Video synchronization is not required.
• Records images digitally, which eliminates the need for VCRs and videotape.
Backs up images to an optional CD-RW or an optional Digital Audio Tape (DAT),
saves them to a floppy diskette or transfers them to videotape.
• User can select, enhance and copy images onto a computer diskette or print them.
