Preface These installation and operating instructions are intended for per- sons authorised to install and operate the VideoJet 1000. Interna- tional, national and any relevant regional regulations relating to electronics must be observed at all times. The operating instruc- tions explain the installation and operation of the VideoJet 1000.
Command line input and output ping Intended use The Network Video Server VideoJet 1000 serves to transmit video, audio and control signals via data networks (Ethernet LAN, Inter- net). Due to the integrated hard disk the device provides DVR func- tionality.
For exact identification, you will find the model designation and serial number on the rating plate on the bottom of the housing. Please note this information here before installation in order to have it to hand in the event of queries or spare parts orders. VideoJet 1000...
– if the server has been exposed to rain or moisture, – if objects have penetrated inside the unit, – after long storage under improper conditions or – after heavy demands during transport. Have the system checked by VCS in such cases. VideoJet 1000...
All other work beyond this may lead to injuries to per- sons and damage to the system or other equipment. Repairs and maintenance Never open the housing of the VideoJet 1000. The unit contains no parts which you can repair or replace. Ensure that only qualified, specialist personnel (electrical techni- cians) are permitted to carry out maintenance or repair work.
