Edit basic hardware settings

You can edit basic settings, such as IP address/host name, for added hardware:

1. Expand recording server, right-click the hardware you want to edit.

2. Select Edit Hardware. This opens the Edit Hardware window, where you can edit relevant

properties.

3. Click OK.

Enable/disable individual devices

Cameras are by default enabled.

Microphones, speakers, metadata, inputs and outputs are by default disabled.

This means that microphones, speakers, metadata, inputs and outputs must be individually enabled

before you can use them in the system. The reason for this is that surveillance systems rely on

cameras, whereas the use of microphones and so on is highly individual depending on the needs of

each organization.

You can see if devices are enabled or disabled (the examples show an output):

Disabled

Enabled

The same method for enabling/disabling is used for cameras, microphones, speakers, metadata,

inputs, and outputs.

1. Expand the recording server and the device. Right-click the device you want to enable.

2. Select Enabled to clear or select it.

Set up a secure connection to the hardware

You can set up a secure HTTPS connection using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) between the hardware

and the recording server.

Consult your camera vendor to get a certificate for your hardware and upload it to the hardware,

before you continue with the steps below:
