Configuration: Exceptions
An Exception is any deviation from the DVR's normal
behaviour - phrased another way, it's like saying the DVR's
been working fine except for these events.
Exception Type:
What event type you'd like the DVR to
react to. By configuring the Action for these events, you
can create any combination of audio alerts (see below) or
auto-emails to be sent for different event types.
HDD Full:
As the name suggests, this event occurs when
the DVR runs out of space on the hard drive to save new
footage. This event is redundant if you've got overwrite
enabled, as the DVR will automatically delete old footage
to ensure it can continue to record.
HDD Error:
Occurs when the DVR has trouble accessing its
hard drives, or when it cannot detect one at all.
Network Disconnected:
Will occur if the DVR has problems
connecting to the Internet. This may indicate a problem
with the DVR's configuration, a fault with your network or a
problem with your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
IP Conflicted:
This event will occur if the DVR detects
another device on the same network with a conflicting IP
address. Basically, it indicates that two devices are trying
to use the same IP address. This shouldn't occur if you're
using DHCP addressing, unless one or more devices is set
to use a STATIC IP (the static addressing method overrides
the automatic assignment process).
Illegal Login:
This will occur if the DVR detects a login with
an incorrect username or password.
Input/Output Video Standard mismatch:
connected is not capable of matching the resolution
selected in the Record: Encoding menu and CVBS Output
Standard in the Configuration: General menu.
Record Exception:
This will occur if there are unexpected
errors during capture such as a HDD failure, if the HDD is
full or if the HDD quota has been changed.
Audible Warning:
The DVR will use its internal buzzer
to emit an alarm tone. It sounds like an old computer
indicating an error, or a large truck backing up.
This will alert the SwannView Plus
Alert CMS Software:
client software installed on your computer.
Send Email:
The DVR will send an auto-email alert when
the event type you've selected occurs.
