1 Introduction
This is a guide to the software configuration procedures for the Geutebrück MultiS-
cope Digital Video Recorder (DVR) in the MM8000 Management Station and
MK8000 OPC server.
For a complete guide to the configuration process, this manual should be used with
the DMS8000 Network, Fire and Intrusion Guide, and with the Installation, Configu-
ration and Commissioning manual (ICC) of the specific product.
Video devices software version
The exact software version to use in the video device to integrate into the
DMS8000 systems is indicated in the latest MM8000 or MK8000 Release Notes.
2 Installation
The Geutebrück package is provided in the MM8000 product CD as add-on. It can
be installed using the standard Add-on Manager.
2.1 Software installation
2.1.1 Requirements
The Geutebrück Multiview application is required for running MM8000 with Geu-
tebrück MultiScope. This application should be installed before MM8000.
Geutebrück settings utilities
The DMS8000 directory:
<installation folder>\Utilities\Reg
(usually C:\Program Files\Utilities\Reg )
contains the following registry-setting scripts:
– Geutebrueck - Set Multiview User connection routing.reg
Enable Multiview application for all Windows users.
– Geutebrueck - Multiview without MM8000.reg
Set Multiview application for stand-alone use (upon starting up, MM8000 reduces
to minimum, i.e. to the sole screen image, the application window).
2.1.2 Software License
MM8000 license must include specific items for the Geutebrück Add-on, for the
driver, and for the required DVR units.
Therefore, the required license includes:
WW8000 Composer (project configuration and download): Composer License
or Service key.
MM8000 core, no. of subsystems.
This license should include the number of DVR units.
Geutebrück add-on license.
Geutebrück driver license.
Other licenses, covering more MM8000 options, may or may not be used and they
are not related to the Geutebrück support.

3 Configuring CCTV network
3.1 Video integration
The DMS8000 systems MM8000 and MK8000 can support the connection to
Geutebrück MultiScope Digital Video Recorder (DVR) in the following way:
Integration of video network, made up of the following devices:
Manufact. Model Device type
Geutebrück MultiScope II Plus Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
Geutebrück MultiScope III Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
This integration allows providing advanced control capabilities as well as the
access to video images in MM8000 event treatment and navigation.
A detailed configuration guide for this video device is provided in this section.
3.2 Video Network Manager
The advanced video functionalities require a basic communication infrastructure
between MM8000/MK8000 and the CCTV units; this is actually a LAN network.
In Composer, a Video Network Manager and the associated drivers should be
added to the MM8000/MK8000 main station in order to support the video network
communication. The drivers concern the SISTORE, the TELSCAN, and the MultiS-
cope units.
The Fig 1 illustrates how to add the VNM to the configuration:
1. In the MM8000 physical configuration, select the main station name:
‘Supervisor System Settings MM8000 System Physical configuration 
<Station name>’.
In the MK8000 project, the selection is quite similar:
‘MK8000 System MK8000 Physical configuration <Station name>’.
2. Click the button A to add the VNM (see Fig 1).
A new node is added. No further configuration is required for the VNM.
Fig 1 Adding the Video Network Manager (A)
Note: Adding the VNM results in the entire Composer project being expanded in
order to support the CCTV functions. Particularly, the new tab ‘Camera Extensor’ is
added to all nodes. Depending on the size of the configuration tree, the operation
may take a few minutes.
The Composer plug-in #251701 is required.

3.4 Geutebrück MultiScope (MSC) DVR configuration
The Geutebrück MultiScope (MSC) is a family of Digital Video Recorders capable
of acquiring the video signals from 4, 8, 16 or 32 cameras, showing the images on
a local monitor, and storing them in digital form on local hard disks.
– Options are also available for video outputs and input/output management
– The host connection is based on a TCP/IP connection on a LAN network
Two basic MultiScope models and a total of 12 variants can be configured in the
MM8000 Video Network. Namely:
– MultiScope II Plus, handling 4, 8, 2x4 dual-speed, 16, 4x4 quad-speed, and 32
video inputs.
– MultiScope III, supporting 4, 8, 2x4 dual-speed, 16, 4x4 quad-speed, and 32
video inputs.
MSC models and variants only differ on the number of cameras, and their configu-
ration in Composer is exactly the same (as illustrated in this section).
In the Geutebrück MultiScope DVRs, MM8000 only supports the video and monitoring
functions related to camera inputs.
In case of network-distributed solutions, be aware that DCOM security must be con-
figured in order to enable the correct communication over the network.
In general, the MM8000 internal user (see MM8000 Installation, Configuration, and
Commissioning manual) must be recognised by the server (i.e. defined locally on the
server computer or at domain level) and granted the DCOM permissions for the Video
server process (DCOMCNFG settings).
Also, the computer running MM8000 should be configured in order to grant access the
user of the video server.
