Working with Plugins
Plugins are components that enhance the capabilities of VxOpsCenter Client. VxOpsCenter Client
supports two types of plugins:
l
Overlay plugins provide information supplemental to video and audio sources, and are meant to
be used in conjunction with a source; both a source and overlay plugin will populate the same cell.
l
Content plugins consume a cell by themselves; adding a content plugin to a cell that is already
populated will replace whatever was in the cell.
Installing Plugins
Close the VxOpsCenter application before installing plugins.
To install a plugin, run the plugin installer, typically an MSI file.
Plugins install under C:\ProgramData\Pelco\OpsCenter\Plugins. VxOpsCenter searches this directory
recursively on start-up to populate the plugins available to it.
Note:The Access Control System Viewer plugin is not automatically available. Obtain the installer
from PartnerFirst.pelco.com, and see the installation instructions in the current version of the
VideoXpert® InstallationManual.
Adding a Plugin to Your Workstation
To add a plugin to your workspace:
1. (Optional) Select the cell in which you want to add a plugin.
2. Access the available plugins by one of the following methods:
l

3. If necessary, click to expand Content Plugins or Overlay Plugins.
4. If the plugin you need is not present in the Plugins panel, install it. See the section titled Installing
Plugins.
5. Double-click the plugin to add it to the selected cell (if you selected a cell), or drag the plugin to a
different cell. Double clicking a plugin will open the plugin in a manner that is consistent with video
sources, as defined by the When double-clicking a source setting, available under Preferences.
6. If a dialog box opens, respond to any prompts.

the BriefCam Plugin By Pelco Setup window.
