NUUO Thermal Plugin 3rd Party Software

Product Information

The NUUO Thermal Plugin is a 3rd party software that can be installed and set up on the NUUO Mainconsole. It allows users to integrate thermal imaging cameras and access their metadata transactions. The plugin provides various features such as setting up a web service port, configuring metadata sources, defining display options, and enabling SmartGuard settings for event detection.

Product Usage Instructions

Plugin Install Folder:

• Copy the folder named ‘MetadataModelNuThermal’ including the ‘MetadataModelNuThermal.dll’ file to the Mainconsole’s PluginPack folder.
• Make sure that the versions of Mainconsole and NuThermal Plugin (w32 or x64) match.

3rd Party Software Installation & Setup:

• Set the username and password for login. The default is ‘admin’ with a blank password.
• Set the web service port. The default is 80, but it can be changed to any desired port (e.g., 8080).
• To verify the installation of the 3rd party software, open Chrome or any other browser and enter the following URL:http://10.0.4.3:8080/core.cgi command=get_camera_list. Enter the account password (default is ‘admin’ with a blank password) to view the response text of the 3rd party software.

• Access the SmartGuard Metadata Event Log from the Log Viewer.

Plugin Install Folder
