  • Page 7: Introduction

    LAN or WAN environment. VR-N100U is the only solution that allows any security administrator to monitor and manage one or more facilities from anywhere in the world in real-time. The VR-N100U is engineered to offer new levels of flexibility, reliability, scalability and performance to the security market.

  • Page 8: Manual Organization

    The VR-N100U User’s Manual documents the newest network security appliance. It features the new VR-N100U Security Technology on the VR-N100U industrial server board. It has been organized in a manner that will allow any individual or organization to quickly and easily install, setup and manage the VR-N100U security appliance and its associated devices.

    1.3.5. The Solution…VR-N100U Security Appliance With each VR-N100U appliance, a dedicated RAID set of large capacity hard disk drives for online storage is utilized and occupies a very small 19” 1U form-factor footprint. Options are available to add additional hard disk drive storage or archiving to other media such as CD, DVD and tape in a seamless automated manner provides the maximum flexibility for the VR- N100U customer.

  • Page 10: Installing Vr-n100u

    Before You Begin WARNING Disconnect the VR-N100U from its AC power source before you connect or disconnect cables, install or remove any components. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or equipment damage that will NOT be covered under the product’s warranty.

    2.4.5. Step 4: Setting Up the Backchannel Once VR-N100U has been successful installed onto your network, the next step is to configure the “back channel” (also referred as the camera or video channel) along with the networked cameras. Backchannel 10/100 Mbit Switch A dedicated quality Unmanaged Layer 2 24-Port 10/100 Mbit Switch will now be required to physically attach up to sixteen (16) VR-N100U supported networked cameras for each VR-N100U.

    Integration into these platforms provides a focused approach to administering users, groups and the cameras on a secure VR-N100U, and, as you learn about the VR-N100U features described in the next chapter, you’ll be able to picture their implementation under the platform integration you have planned.

  • Page 24: Vr-n100u Overview

    VR-N100U management features of the standalone Enterprise Windows-based application, VDRView. One of the hallmarks of the VR-N100U is its flexibility. It offers a number of ways for you to make cameras available to key networked users. The versatility and flexibility of VR-N100U is demonstrated in the interface as well. VR-N100U detects your hardware configuration and organizes the interface accordingly.

    VR-N100U to the default factory settings. For those of you who have a specific plan for your VR-N100U, the appearance of the Setup Wizard at this time allows you to move forward with your plan. For those of you who want to explore the VR-N100U interface before you make any changes to the default settings, be assured that each of the options offered in the Setup Wizard is available in the utilities pages such as the main Administration Utilities page and can be set any time at your convenience.

  • Page 26: Server Name

    3.2.1. Server Name Let’s have a look at the VR-N100U Setup Wizard. The first field displays the default name of the VR-N100U. Since this is the name by which the VR-N100U will be recognized on the network, you may want to change it to something more meaningful, even if it is just VR-N100U, SecuritySystem or CameraServer.

  • Page 27: The Administration "system" Utilities

    If you don’t see a device displayed on this page, you know that your VR-N100U has not detected its presence. You can also click on a specific device to view additional details about the device.

  • Page 30: Time Keeper

    The Time/Date page allows the administrator to easily change or setup the current Date, Time and specify the local time zone for the VR-N100U. It is very important to maintain the accurate local settings as it will directly affect the accurate ability to search on any of the captured video.

  • Page 31: Server Reboot

    Power off, Reset to manufacturing defaults, and a basic Reboot. When you plan on powering off the VR-N100U, you must select the Safely stop the Unit for power off option and then press OK.

  • Page 40: Motion Log

    Network IP cameras are becoming more advanced, as some have incorporated motion detection support within the device. The advantage of motion detection is that it can allow you to better optimize the storage as the VR-N100U could be setup to capture video only when motion is detected by the camera in within a specified area.

  • Page 41: Setup Motion Detection

    VR-N100U will track each ISO image creation and store these log files (video clips) that can be easily accessed by clicking on the ISO Files button.
