FAQ 8

I want to prevent users from viewing my camera.

wGo into Administration Tools of the 7700.

wClick on Users.

wDelete the user or all users by deleting the ID and password associated with that user.

Can I record the video?

Yes, you can record, but you will need to purchase a separate software program to allow PC-based recording. This software is available by contacting us. The softwarewill connect up to 16 separate 7700s for remote viewing, remote controlling, and remote recording without the loss of quality or size (up to 640 480 resolution).

I can access the video server on my LAN, but not from the Internet.

Verify that your router (if applicable) has port forwarding properly configured. Firewall issues may prevent user access.

Can I use Applied Vision or Vision Explorer with the 7700?

Ken-A-Vision's Applied Vision and Vision Explorer software applications were designed for USB cameras, and unfortunately they cannot interface directly with network cameras. However, if you wish to add USB connectivity to your 7700, you can purchase our USB Adapter (VFUSBAD2) which will allow you to connect the analog output of the 7700 to your computer, after which you will be able to use our software.

Can I use the 7700 on my dial-up Internet connection?

No, we recommend a high-speed broadband connection of at least 128Kb/sec.

I'm accessing my 7700 remotely over the Internet and the video stream is choppy, is this normal?

Yes. The frames per second received remotely are determined by your bandwidth capabilities both at your site where the 7700

is installed and

your

remote location.

The lower of the two sites

will determine

how

fast your video

stream is received. It is

recommended to have at least a 256Kb/sec upstream connec- tion from the site where the 7700 is installed. Lower speeds will operate properly, but provide poor remote performance. The faster the Internet connection at both ends, the faster the video stream.

Can I view multiple cameras at once?

You can view multiple cameras only

if you purchase the new

Ken-A-Vision network camera software,

which will connect up to

16 separate 7700s.
