General Video Server
Settings
14.1
Startup / Logoff Options
A number of start-up/logoff options are
available at Video Server PCs.
TechTip: These settings do not affect features to
be available at remote surveillance stations.
Locator: (Logged in at the Video Server as
a "Supervisor"),
Select: [Utility], then [Option Setting].
Select Operation Setting , and then make
your desired selections:
--------------------------------------------------
On Next Startup:
Status Restore
: Select this if you want
viewing / recording mode selections to be
retained for use during the next login.
(This also applies to the “At Logoff”
selections, to follow/below).
Auto Login
: Select this if you want to skip
having to logon when the Video Server
software is started (and select to be logged
in as "Operator" or "Super").
Caution: This bypasses password protection for
the Video Server software. Auto-logon as "Super"
gives full access for anyone with authority to use the
PC (as per Windows 2000/XP permissions).
BIOS and Windows Setup: Video Servers are
typically pre-set at the factory to automatically
restart after a power failure.
At Logoff: Select the items that you wish to
remain in effect at the Video Server when the
operator logs off (video display, manual
recording, PTZ control).
TechTip: If you need to disable remote viewing
through a dial-up connection, disconnect or disable
the modem.
Allow Operator to Exit: Select this to allow
persons logged in as "Operator" to be able to
shut down the software. (Otherwise, the [Exit]
button is available only when logged on as a
"Supervisor".)
Date/Time Display: 12-hour (with AM/PM)
versus 24-hour time display.
--------------------------------------------------
When finished, click [OK], and then
[Close] the utility menu.
