2.3 Configuration wizard
The configuration wizard is a quick way of setting up the most important parameters for the
system for a first-time installation. The parameters shown in the wizard are a subset of all the
parameters that can be set in the System/Applications/Video Client menu of the Configuration
Manager.
When the wizard opens it guides you through the configuration process in eight steps. Click
Next and Back to navigate through the wizard.
1. Passwords
Enter (and confirm) universal, system-wide passwords for three user groups (leave the
fields empty if you do not wish to do this).
The passwords for the system user levels are mapped to the system components. When
accessing a device, for example, the password for administrator is used for access level
service, while the password for operator is used for access level user.
2. Recorder
Select whether to record locally on the devices (for example, to an SD card) or to use a
VRM recorder.
To record using a recorder, enter the relevant IP address or select the address of a
configured recorder from the list.
3. Device Selection
All devices detected in the network are listed. If you think that a device is missing click
Update.
All devices with a check mark will be configured (allocated an IP address). If you do not
wish to configure a device using the wizard, click the box to remove the check mark.
Devices marked with a green square are already allocated to a VRM recorder. If these are
deselected the allocation is broken and the associated recordings are deleted.
Not all devices support IP address configuration via DHCP. If required, configure these
devices manually.
