Development Environment
Installation
See the SDK Quick Start Guide for system requirements and installation instructions. Visit Pelco SDK Downloads for the latest version of the Pelco SDK.
In addition to your client machine, a Pelco SDK compatible Pelco device is required. See Pelco API web services supported on Pelco products.
Network
The minimum requirements for networking environments supporting Endura devices and Pelco SDK-based applications are as follows:
- 100Base-T for IP cameras and single channel encoders
- 1000Base-T (Gigabit) is required for all other Endura devices
- Cat 5e cabling (Cat 6 or Cat 6a is recommended.)
- Single or multimode fiber should be used for distances exceeding copper standards.
Performance
Video Streaming and Exporting Peformance details the performance specs that Pelco SDK-based applications can expect to achieve. Video streaming and export are extremely processor-intensive operations and were tested in various configurations. Event monitoring and normal usage of the Pelco SDK is not processor-intensive and was not measured.
