* All processor and RAM requirements assume Windows 98 as the operating system. Newer operating systems will require a faster processor and more RAM.
† This is a minimum for one standard resolution, monochrome EtherLynx camera. Multiple cameras, high resolution cameras, and color cameras will all require a faster processor and more RAM for an optimal experience.

PC or Laptop?

Both PCs and laptops meet the above requirements. Some users prefer laptops for their additional portability and their batteries, while others opt for cheaper desktops which are harder to steal.

COM Ports

The ReacTime computer will require a COM port for communicating with the Command Center.

You should make sure your computer is capable of providing sufficient COM ports for your needs, but keep in mind that there are two ways to stretch the performance of your existing COM port(s):

  • it is possible to install additional COM ports on your computer
  • it is possible to use your computer's USB port to provide additional COM ports
