116 • Configuring the ViconNet System XX112-36-00 Rev 909 Kollector Hybrid Network Digital Video Recorder
Using the Recording Verification System (RVS)
Automatic recording and scheduled macros are two of the Kollector's most important features. The RVS
mechanism ensures continuous recording by notifying users of any recording errors. It monitors automatic
recording activity (audio and video) at all times, both locally and over the network.
NOTE: The RVS mechanism operates only on sites using version 2.18 or higher.
The RVS includes a feature in which the RVS causes the system to reboot under specific conditions. The
conditions for this to happen are:
• Two identical RVS messages occur, within 12 hours, and
• The RVS messages indicate problems on the local site, and
• Auto Record is enabled
After a reboot has occurred, 24 hours must pass before another RVS-induced reboot can occur.
The RVS mechanism handles the following types of recording errors:
Error Type Message Displayed Explanation
Connection
Verified site does not exist This error is triggered when trying to verify a site that
does not appear in the Site List. This could be the
result of changing the Nucleus or the verified site's IP.
Cannot get RVS settings This error is caused by a communication problem
within the system - the RVS settings could not be
retrieved.
Cannot get scheduler settings This error is caused by a communication problem
within the system - the scheduler settings could not be
retrieved.
The verified site doesn't respond to RVS
requests
Although connection with the transmitter has been
established, it does not respond to the RVS
mechanism's requests – the verified site is
disconnected or is running with another version. [This
may happen if the Nucleus IP was changed. To
correct this problem, go to the RVS setup and follow
the instructions in the popup message received (to
view the message, refer to NOTES, page 119)].
Could not connect to site A remote verified site could not be contacted because
it is disconnected/down.
Communication Problem - Could not
connect to site
This error is triggered when the source or the
destination of the recording camera is disconnected,
but the verification is done on the local site.
Audio Video loss – check device signal Although the specific camera appears in the auto
record or scheduled macro device list, it is not
connected to the transmitter.
