Description
Remarks
User name
User name is to be registered to log in to the recorder.
It will be required to log in to the recorder.
This setting item can be configured only in
the user registration.
IP address
IP address of a PC is to be registered to access the
recorder. When "On" is set for "Host registration", only
PCs with the registered IP addresses can access the
recorder.
This setting item can be configured only in
the host registration.
Password

Level
Level indicates availability of the functions for users.
Refer to page 112 for the operable functions for each
level.
Priority level
Priority level indicates the operational priority. When
multiple users/hosts tried to operate the same, only a
user/host with a higher priority can operate.
In the following cases, the operational right
will be given to a user/host with a higher
priority.
• When another user tried to log in while
the other user is already being logged
in.
• When another user tried to control a
camera that is being controlled by the
other user
Default screen
Camera channels from which live images are to be
displayed on Monitor 1, Monitor 2 and the PC monitor
just after the login can be determined.
Camera partitioning
Operational range of each camera channel for users/
hosts can be determined.
Users and hosts will be handled differently depending on how to access the recorder (between when the recorder is directly
operated and when the recorder is operated via a network).
When operating the recorder directly
Operate the recorder while monitoring the monitor connected to the recorder. There are 3 ways of how to operate the recorder
directly.
• Operate using the buttons on the front panel (operating section) of the recorder
• Operate using a mouse connected to the mouse connection port
• Operate from a PS·Data compatible system controller
Note:
• When controlling a camera connected to a coaxial communication unit from a system controller compatible with PS·Data, the
priority level configured on the recorder will not be applied since it is controlled directly from the system controller. (The priority
will be given to the latest operation.)
It is impossible to log in to the recorder from the front panel (operating section) (using the buttons or the mouse) and from the
system controller at the same time (except logging in using the same user name). It is impossible to log in to the recorder regard-
less of the priority level even if another user tried to log in when a user has already logged in.
