Description

1283837 V. INSTRUCTIONS (1) FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a security monitoring system and method, and more particularly to a security monitoring system similar to Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). System ^ 1 Ming background The entire J = i monitoring system is still dominated by traditional closed systems, accounting for more than 90% of the sisters' 4 Wang Chengtong market, but with the U=: popularity of the Internet, the digitalization of various industries The digital security monitoring system that has grown up with the Internet has also grown by 40% in recent years. It is expected to enter the community in the next three to five years and witness the expansion of the industry scale. And the enterprise is becoming more and more obvious. In order to effectively manage the control environment, it is obvious that the traditional style is sought. In recent years, with the opening of communication technologies, especially the use of the Internet by the Internet or individual users is limited to the closed intra-regional network to meet the changes in the investment environment. The demand for remote monitoring of enterprises is the growing demand of the security system. The development of globalization 'the remote end of the monitoring point is increasingly large, complex and scattered. The monitoring system of the female supervisor has not been able to meet the rapid development of the market. As well as the rapid growth of the domestic communication market, 'the domestic industrial and commercial industry is very popular. Therefore, security monitoring should not be used, and the demand for network security monitoring should be diversified. The industry has set up factories abroad, so the network has increased by 0.

Page 4 1283837 Description of the invention (2) The traditional security surveillance system industry covers three major parts, namely: alarm anti-theft system and image surveillance system. These three systems are different in structure and different companies. Development, therefore, its biggest = point to self-government, if a monitoring area is introduced into the above system at the same time, ..., it is bound to avoid the following problems: 糸, first (1) wiring is repeated, thus causing the line environment, relative Each system with different maintenance costs requires its own wiring, complex, and repeated construction costs; (2) Maintenance difficulties managers must maintain and manage multiple systems at the same time. (3) Integration difficulties. Different systems developed by different companies, (4) It is impossible to remotely monitor the festival, so it cannot be monitored and managed from the remote end by the traditional security monitoring system; the closed system (5) lacks the system expansion capability - when the user needs to add new equipment, a fee is required. Work, can not be plug-and-play function · wiring project, time-consuming (6) data storage is not easy & 'In traditional image monitoring, image sub-master Because the video tape itself is extremely vulnerable to the preservation of the ring material, the video tape is even more difficult to save, the average one is loud... and the service life is limited, and the video tape needs more space to be saved. Recording θ for more than one volume, and

(7) Data inquiry is not easy In the past image monitoring, the rabbit image 'usually needs people to fall and record the video image in the video tape, which is time-consuming and laborious. "The chiller machine, repeatedly inquiring in order to obtain the necessary factors based on various factors, the intelligent monitoring system will be the new generation of digital, multi-functional remote monitoring system of the Internet is not the mainstream of the system. , the use and management of the traditional communication system; it is also difficult to directly structure the existing ones to go through special and time-consuming: iC separate platforms or systems, need to adopt an open architecture and _ quasi; Requirements, and therefore, the security monitoring system and method for photographing and naming are for the purpose of the invention and the main purpose of the invention is to recognize the Internet Protocol (TCP/TP) from the u ^ y A female full monitoring system and method based on the transmission control protocol ^ ^ ^ μ ^ ^ ρ), which will be connected to the regional network or the Internet, and each monitoring:歩: From the 1ρ address, $ can be used anytime, anywhere with the browser; = the;:!;::: shadow!, and can be used to monitor each page through the network; "with π + two work, advanced仃Retraction control. Since this system is purely square;;r...the way is not counted, so it can be finished All the Internet operations are also required. The user side does not need to install other software or hardware. This is the monitoring data obtained by the monitoring device.
