MODELS
VMX300 and VMX300-E workstations come with software preloaded on a rack mountable PC; keyboard and mouse are included. Each
workstation supports two monitors. (Note: Monitors are not included. A standard VGA or Super VGA monitor can be used.)
VMX300 MODELS
VMX300 provides control and monitoring of CCTV equipment in a client-to-server configuration. A VMX300 workstation can be a client/server
workstation (VMX300-CSVR) or a client workstation (VMX300-CL).
VMX300-CSVR workstations include both client and sever software applications. The model comes standard with licensing for the server and
client and up to 10 cameras. Licenses for up to 100 cameras can be purchased as needed.
VMX300-CL workstations include the client software application and the licensing (five per client) required for the client workstation to connect
to the server. Up to 10 additional client workstations can be connected to the VMX300 server. Note that each client added to the system
decreases the potential number of cameras (by five) that you can add to the system.
NOTE: If your system requires only one client, the client and server applications can both run on the same workstation. To optimize system
performance in a multiple-client system, each client application should run from a dedicated client workstation.
Refer to Table A for a list of VMX300 model numbers.
VMX300 Software Licenses
The VMX300 can support a maximum of 100 licenses. Licenses can be used for cameras (one each), KBD300A keyboards (five each), and clients
(five each; supplied with client workstation).
VMX300-LIC-10 10 additional licenses
VMX300-LIC-20 20 additional licenses
VMX300-LIC-50 50 additional licenses
VMX300-LIC-100 100 additional licenses

VMX300-CL-4 Client
*The VMX300 software allows you to view both analog and digital video display windows simultaneously on the same
system monitor, as follows:
Analog windows: The analog video display window described in the -1 and -4 models typically allows operators to
view video from a camera, matrix switcher, or other analog video source connected directly to the VMX300 rear panel.
The -0 models can receive analog video inputs only through PelcoNet video encoders and Pelco DX8000 and DX9000
Series DVRs, using a network connection.
Digital windows: The number of digital video display windows that can be displayed at one time is limited by the size
and type of images selected for viewing. Refer to Table B in the VMX300 Software Guide for an overview of the CPU
workload and bandwidth amounts used for each type of video stream (the video in a custom window).
