How to Create a CCTV Diagram in ConceptDraw PRO

Closed circuit television (CCTV) is a video monitoring system. CCTV systems are based on strategic placement of video cameras, which capture and transmit videos to either a private network of monitors for real-time viewing, or to a video recorder for later reference. CCTV is commonly used for surveillance and security purposes. Using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM v12 with the Security and Access Plans Solution lets you create professional looking video surveillance CCTV system plans, security plans, and access schemes.

1. Launch ConceptDraw DIAGRAM v12
2. Open the libraries containing the necessary shapes:
      • Video surveillance (Security and Access Plans solution)
      • Computer network (Computer Network Diagrams solution)
      • Network hardware (Computer Network Diagrams solution)
      • External digital devices (Computer Network Diagrams section)
3. The best way to get quick access to frequently used objects located in different libraries is to create your own custom library. To do this, open the File menu and select Library, then New. An empty library box will appear in the Library panel.




4. Drag and drop shapes from the drawing page to the new library.




5. Set the shapes properties using context menu.




6. Set the library properties using context menu.




7. Save the library.




8. Use the new library to create a CCTV Schematic Diagram

Result: Now you can create a CCTV diagram with elements from a specific library.
