Using V300 with a recording group
Note: You can have a maximum of eight cameras in a recording group
with one Wi-Fi base.
l Initiates group recordings
The V300 Camera notifies the Wi-Fi base that it started a recorded event. The Wi-Fi base then
uses the group network to notify the other group members that V300, has started an event.
The other group members can join the group by starting their own recorded events.
l Responds to group-recording starts or stops by other group members
Through the recording group network, the Wi-Fi base is notified by other group members when
they start or stop a group recording. The base then notifies the cameras and a camera can start
or stop its own recorded event with the recording group.
Tip: If the 4RE DVR or V300 Cameras are members of the same
recording group, you can use the 4RE to control the V300 recorded event
starts, stops, and categorizations. V300 functions like another camera
connected to the 4REDVR.
Important! If a V300 moves out of range of its associated recording group
network, it does not receive notifications of group recording starts and stops until
it is back in range. V300 does not receive any 4RE event categorization
notifications that are sent while it is out of range.
V300 provides a wireless access point (hotspot) for the SmartConnect smartphone application.
For information about connecting the SmartConnect application, see Connecting to
SmartConnect on page 1.
Other Devices in a recording group
l Radio
If present in the system, the wireless radio connects to the SPS.
The 4RE DVR and V300 can use the radio to interact with Evidence Library 4 Web (EL4 Web) or
EvidenceLibrary.com (EL) through an agency network access point. The connection between
the wireless radio and the agency network (EL4 Web) is independent of the local recording
group network.
l MDC/laptop
The MDC (mobile data computer) or other laptop computer connects to the SPS.
The computer only connects into the system through the SPS; it is not powered through the
switch. If the computer is configured to be a DHCP client, it can also get its network address
from the SPS.
l SmartConnect smartphone application
SmartConnect connects wirelessly to V300. V300 acts as an 802.11n Wi-Fi access point
(hotspot) for the smartphone.
