Restart by Ping Watchdog
The watchdog is not active when the camera transmits a video stream.
1. Activate the Enable restart by Ping-Watchdog check box.
2. Enter the IP-Address of the Gateway (Next Hop) in the Remote Host to Ping
box. See Fig. 4: Network settings.
3. Enter the desired cycle time in seconds in the Frequency box, e. g. 30.
The device will ping the Remote Host to Ping you have entered every 30
seconds.
4. Enter the desired cycle time in seconds in the Timeout box, e. g. 125.
A restart will be triggered if the return ping from the Remote Host for Ping you
have entered is not received within 125 seconds.
The time-out value must be a multiple of the cycle time (the value entered in
Frequency).
In the event of an unexpected system problem, this ensures the device becomes
available again after 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Restart the device to adopt the new settings.
