Good news, we have finished our beta for the new IPVM Calculator. The official announcement will be made mid-September when people are fully back from summer vacations, etc.

Now, we are letting people in early.

If you want in, comment below or email us at info@ipvm.com. We will flip the switch and you will have full access to the new faster, more streamlined Calculator.

Any questions or feedback, please share as well.

UPDATE: Early access is now closed. We will officially announce / release the new Calculator next Monday the 18th.

James, great. You are now activated. It is the same Calculator URL / page, you'll just automatically be displayed the new version when logged in.

It should be faster, especially for exporting projects. It also autosaves and auto recalls where you last left off when you return.

Any issues or problems, just let us know and we will fix asap.

If there are any more spots I'll take one.  I have some experience; I just found out that I have been a unwitting beta-tester for Ubiquiti for a number of years.

The new version is definitely faster.

Autosave is a great concept, but manual saves allows me to undo a mistake.

Is there a way to copy an existing map so that I can experiment with an existing one without changing its configuration?

Steve, to copy an existing calculation, click on the permalink icon on the upper left side, copy it, paste it and go, then you will see a link to 'make it a part of your projects':

That way you can have effectively duplicate copies one of which you can experiment with.

As for an undo feature, I see the value. Let us talk about it internally about what type of implementation issues are involved.

One idea would be to have the autosaved map go to a different filename.

It might be simpler just to make a user preference page allowing us to turn off autosave.

There could be a check box when opening a file whether it would autosave or be read only.

Yes please - finalising  a 64 IP CCTV installion deal as a phase 2 of on a project in London. Run over 2 miles of cabling, have terminated over 150 cables, already installed a multi VLAN (4), Layer 3 Managed switched network infrastructure, WiFi, EPOS network which has been kicked hard by the client and is rock solid... But now it's showtime... 64 cameras viewable from 3 different locations in the same building. Oh and they want to view different camera subsets over 9 monitors (3 in each location) at the same time. So I'd love to see what bandwidth and storage results V3 will produce. I have built scaled drawing of each room on each floor.  Not long back from a lengthy meeting to agree spec so could be very useful to compare figures before the final ok tomorrow morning..Installation may be starting this weekend coming!

New feature added to early access V3. PTZs now combine the current FoV with a circle to show the potential 360 pan coverage. This automatically is disabled whenever any PTZ model is selected, as demonstrated in the GIF shown below:

We expect to regularly be adding new features as bug fixes to the new architecture decline.

Next up, look for a major improvement in how we handle integrated IR / night PPF/PPM previews.
