Exacqvision version 8.0 video management system (VMS) software also includes new archiving for bookmarked video, inactivity timeout, and camera inspection in Enterprise System Manager (ESM), a health monitoring programme for use with Exacqvision Enterprise network video recorders (NVRs).

With the new suspect tracking feature in Exacqvision version 8.0, users can track suspects through multiple camera views by drawing a transparent box in a specific area and linking that to other adjacent cameras with Cameralinks. Through Exacqvision search tools, users can also create a suspect tracking search. In addition to suspect tracking, operators can now access Exacqreplay in a single click directly from live view with Cameralinks shortcuts for an instant replay of video and audio.

Bookmarked video can be archived separately from other footage to create a second copy of important video. In retail applications, a corporate security officer can bookmark video of an incident at a specific store and then archive it automatically to the corporate network share overnight during off peak hours. Afterwards, Exacqvision users can directly search bookmarks on the archive without affecting the store's bandwidth.

To further conserve bandwidth, Exacqvision will now blank video panels when the client has been inactive for a designated amount of time. Exacqvision 8.0 also allows users to configure the colour and background of serial data displayed in live view to easily read associated data such as license plates and receipt transactions.

Exacqvision VMS now supports more than 3,000 IP camera models including cameras from Illustra, Axis Communications, Arecont Vision, Panasonic and other leading IP camera manufacturers. Exacqvision 8.0 adds support for the new Illustra video intelligence analytics on the Illustra Pro mini-dome IP cameras to automatically analyse captured video and alert users of specific motion detected activities through event linking.
