SerVision MVG 400 System Guide

Configuring the MVG 400 48

• Video Authentication: Adds a digital signature to each frame of video captured by the

system. This signature makes it possible to identify frames that have been tampered with.

When a SerVision client application plays video that has a digital signature and discovers

a frame that has been changed from its original state, the status of the steam indicates

that the stream was modified. (Note: Only the newest versions of the MultiClient and the

Player support this feature.)

• Outline Switching: Defines what type of automatic trigger will cause the system to

activate different outlines. Outline-switching can be triggered automatically in response

to sensor events (from Sensor 1) or according to a schedule.

• LAN Optimization: Speeds up the transmission of live video from the MVG 400 to PCs

on the same LAN. This feature is not recommended for use with other types of client

connections – internet, cellular, etc.

• SMS on System Start: Sends SMS notifications to all SMS recipients whenever the

MVG 400 starts running. For information about defining SMS recipients, see SMS and

E-mail Notifications, page 81.

• ADAM Sensors: Enables the activation of sensors that are connected to the MVG 400

unit through an ADAM module. For additional information, see Connecting Sensors

Using an ADAM Module, page 18; Sensor and Activator Settings, page 115.

About Ports

The unit has two access ports:

• Port 10000, which is intended for configuration and is always open for incoming

connections.

• System port, which is intended for client connections, and can be configured. The default

number of this port appears on the sticker on the underside of the unit. (It is usually

9988.) You can configure this port as necessary to suit the requirements of your network.

NOTE: If port forwarding in your network cannot be set up for port 10000, you can use the

system port for remote configuration as well as client connections.
