Function Description
Secondary Host If the Digital Sprite 2 is unable to contact the primary host then it is
possible to identify an alternative route and a secondary host.
The option allows 15 characters to be entered, if DNS is enabled
enter the DNS name of the secondary server or enter the IP
address.
Secondary Profile This is the medium that the Digital Sprite 2 will use to make the
connection to the secondary host.
The option allows you to define (10 characters) the medium or select
Ethernet.
Unit Alarm Name This is the name that will be presented to the remote alarm viewing
application and therefore should have some significance to the
Operator.
Public (NAT) IP
address
This is public IP (or domain name) for a unit connected to the
Internet via a NAT Router or Firewall. This field should be left blank
if NAT is not used e.g. on a private network.
Video Server Port This field allows the ARC to connect to the unit through a router that
is using port forwarding e.g. if the video server does not appear on
port 80 (HTTP) to the external network.
Report Settings This allows access to a sub menu for configuration of when the unit
will send a report.
Dial / Retry Timeout If for any reason the initial connection attempt between the Digital
Sprite 2 and the remote station fails then the Digital Sprite 2 will wait
for the specified time period before attempting to re-connect.
This allows the time period to be defined in minutes and seconds.
Alarm Telnet Server
Port
This identifies the port number that will be used for remote
monitoring station allowing them to ‘listen’ for alarm messages from
the Digital Sprite 2.
The default setting is 0023, however if this port is already being
used on the network it is possible to define a different port number.
Note: The port number configured must also be reflected in the viewing application.
