NVR FAILOVER TECHNOLOGY Strengthens Dependability of Recorded Data Valerus allows the configuration of a failover NVR to act as a backup in case of a failure. The failover unit is a dedicated PC, not one of the system’s active NVRs. This feature offers the ability to create clusters, which makes it possible to define multiple NVRs and Failover NVRs to meet any required specification.

Support 3rd Stream from Camera For cameras that support more than two streams, the ability to configure those streams has been added; this requires the user to define the desired stream.
EXTERNAL EVENT REACTIONS Enhance system inputs and notifications to improve operator awareness ADAM-6050 Integration Valerus supports the ADAM-6050 IP based I/O device to expand the number of inputs and outputs.
Receive External Text Events Valerus can accept external text strings from third-party systems and create rules based on them.
