EXTERNAL MONITOR SETUP

The Capture Card’s external monitor settings of a remote DVR cannot be changed from the DX8100 Client application. To change a DVR’s analog monitor configuration, you must physically log in to a local DX8100 Series DVR as an Administrator or Power User. For more information on configuring the Capture Card’s optional analog monitor outputs, refer to the DX8100 DVR online Help or Operation and Programming manual that came with your unit.

EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SETUP

The Emergency Agent Notification alerts selected clients to motion, alarm, and video loss events detected by DX8100 server sites. When a motion, alarm, or video loss event is triggered, a pop-up window opens on the monitor of the remote site client. The window displays one or more still images taken during the event.

Users with Power User access and higher can configure the emergency agent notification system. The first step in the setup process requires that clients be added to the emergency agent notification list. To complete this step, you must provide a valid name and the IP address of each client PC. After clients have been added they can be linked to one or more cameras. Finally, the amount of time a server sends images after an event occurs and the interval between sending each image must be set.

NOTE: Before configuring the Emergency Agent Notification, make sure the Emergency Agent Client utility is installed on one or more client PCs. For information on installing the Emergency Agent Client utility, refer to Installing the Client Emergency Agent Application in this manual.
