3 Software Configuration
The system configuration must be updated after installation. “VR-3000/S Web
configurator” or Web setup utility, stored in the DCU (Data Collecting Unit), can be
accessed by using a Web browser such as Internet Explorer.
The Remote Alarm Panel unit is disconnected until the software configuration is
completed, otherwise alarm sound (i.e. Grabber failure or no radar video) is generated
frequently.
The configuration data is stored onto the Flash memory in the DRU.
To configure VR-3000/S software by Web configurator;
1. Disconnect the RAP from the DCU.
2. Make sure that the PC and DRU are connected securely to the DCU.
3. Turn on the VDR and wait for about 3 minutes.
4. Open a web browser on the PC.
5. Enter the address, 10.0.0.100. (http://10.0.0.100/)
Note
Web configurator can be opened after VDR software runs.
Start page of VR-3000/S Web configurator appears. If not, check the connection of
Ethernet cross cable and network settings on the PC.
6. Press “Connect” button. Main window appears.
7. Make sure that the flash memory size in the Data Recording Unit and the backup
drive (hard disk) is displayed correctly in the Main window. See Fig.3.1.
If the memory size is zero, turn off the unit and on it again. If the memory size is still
zero, check the connection of the DRU and/or the hard disk.
