12.1. Troubleshooting the Compressor Smart Live Viewer

12.1.1. Installation

Q) I can't start installation of SmartViewer when I connect to the Compressor and click Live View.

A) The Internet connection is not available. Manual installation is required.

Q) It stopped during the installation showing the message 'Process is being used'.

A) Close all the Internet Explorer windows running, and try installing again.

Q) 'Reboot system' message is displayed after installation is finished.

A) SmartViewer was being used in another Internet Explorer during installation. Reboot is required.

Q) After installation is finished, it requires me to install SmartViewer again.

A) It is the case when SmartViewer program was updated. Install SmartViewer again.

Q) I still can't install SmartViewer despite the Internet connection is available.

A) It is cause by deleting any part of SmartViewer. Uninstall and reinstall SmartViewer.

12.1.2. Server

Q) It shows a message saying ‘Failed to retrieve server information from SmartViewer or unauthorized

user acc

ess.’

A) Make sure the followings:



The access to the Compressor is good on Internet Explorer.



At least one camera is authorized for video viewing.



At least one remote server is registered if you’re running a network video record without a

local camera.

12.1.3. Video

Q) I can't see live view on screen.

A) Make sure that at least one camera is registered in groups of network video recorder. Also check

whether Channel Hide button is pressed. If so, select the channel to see.

Q) ‘Connecting’ or ‘Disconnected’ message is displayed during live view.

A) It may be caused by either the network is not available or the Compressor is turned off or rebooting.

Check if the network is working properly and the Compressor is turned on. If you still see the same

message while the network is good and the power is on, try rebooting the Compressor.

Q) ‘Extra users’ message is displayed in live view.

A) It is displayed when there are excessive numbers of users viewing the video. You will be able to see

the video when any of current users disconnects from the server.

to the Compressor and all power and video cables are intact.
