Many customizable features are available for the DVM-800. The file that is used to
update the DVM configuration is named “deviceconfig”. This file contains all of the
necessary wireless settings, operational settings, and user logins. Section 3
will guide
you through the process of creating the configuration file using the DVM-800
Settings
tab within the VuVault
®
back office software. You will then save the file using the
Media
Card Admin
Tab within VuVault (
Refer to
).
Once the configuration file has been created within VuVault, use one of the following
methods to update the DVM:
2.1 Manually Updating the DVM Configuration
1.
Copy the “deviceconfig” file to the SD card.
2. Install the SD card into the external card slot of the DVM.
3.
The DVM will reboot and load the settings from the new configuration
file. The old configuration settings will be overwritten and discarded.
Once the update process has started:
◦
Do not remove power
◦
Do not turn the ignition off
◦

WTM Lite
program and click the “Update Devices” button,
