Working With the Remote Agent Application

ABOUT THE REMOTE AGENT

The remote agent application provides the same functions that are available directly from the DX4000. Use the remote agent if you are away from the unit but you still want to monitor live video, search for recorded video, or adjust system settings. The remote agent can connect to the DX4000 over your company network. Refer to Conﬁguring the Remote Agent on page 50 for instructions on how to set up a remote connection with the DX4000. Refer to the installation manual for instructions on installing the remote agent application on your computer.

NOTE:

•You might notice that the remote agent application responds slowly or displays video slowly if you view video while several other applications are open on your desktop. Consider closing other Windows applications while you use the remote agent to review video on the DX4000.

•If your computer system has a primary and secondary monitor, always position the remote agent in the primary monitor.
