Allows highly customized project-specific architectures, video features and user interfaces to be
implemented by the SCADA integrator for the customer.
Due to the open architecture of WinCC OA these individual project solutions can be maintained and
enhanced in the long term.
As with the WinCC OA SCADA applications, the project-specific video application changes can be made
online during system operation.

Vimacc video components
All components from vimacc are installed as services. The default start up type of the vimacc services is
Manual. Therefore, you have to launch the services after each restart of the computer or change the start up
type to Automatic.
The following services are started after running the script StartServices :

How to integrate WinCC OA VIDEO in your project
Each WinCC OA User Interface communicates with the video application via a workstation data point. For a
working system it is necessary that for each user interface number which is used in the system a work station data
point must be created.
Each host which shall be available as recording server must have a video server or recording server installation.
Additionally the host must be configured as recording server. If the recording server shall have an video interface, it
must be specified during the host configuration
Alarm display: enables the configuration of actions as reactions to a WinCC OA DPE alert, e.g. In case of an
alert the camera_0001 is opened on the display monitor 1
FTP Alarm Receiver: In order to receive alarm images, a FTP server is set up within the Video OA system. In
case of an alert all video devices transfer their images and alerts to the server.
External events: Depending on the type, cameras or encoder can send messages via their control protocol
or a separate IP channel to VIDEO OA. This events are written on the data point element .object.device.alarm
and can be assigned to any data point element.. Currently only binary events are supported.
The events are passed as key value pair with a keyword and a value. The keyword depends on the device
type. In case of some device types it is possible to define the keyword during the device configuration
RTSP Server (Real Time Streaming Protocol): Camera images (live or playback ) can be forwarded via
RTSP interface to external systems or external player
.

more functions
Crossbar: VIDEO OA allows to manage cameras which are connected to an external crossbar (see also
Configuration of analog cameras via external crossbar).
Encoder : Configuration and display of an encoder - In order to use analog cameras a fitting encoder is
necessary.
Serial device:In order to use serial junction boxes for analog cameras you have to create and configure them
beforehand. Communication with the junction box is only possible via TCP not UDP.

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, solutions, machines, equipment and/or networks. They are
important components in a holistic industrial security concept. With this in mind, Siemens
products and solutions undergo continuous development. Siemens recommends strongly that
you regularly check for product updates.
For the secure operation of Siemens products and solutions, it is necessary to take suitable
preventive action (e.g. cell protection concept) and integrate each component into a holistic,
state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Third-party products that may be in use should also
be considered. For more information about industrial security, visit
