Using VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT with a Recording Group
Overview
When you dock VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT in a VISTA WiFi Base, the camera pairs with the WiFi
Base. This pairing allows the camera to associate with the local recording group (
).
The association of devices in a local recording group enables the 4RE DVR and VISTA WiFi/VISTA
XLT systems to collaborate in a group recording: the recording of a single incident by multiple
devices (
).
The decision whether to create an event for the group recording is made by each device in the
local recording group network, according to their individual configurations. This is called
Distributed Multi-Peer Recording™. Starting a recorded event on one device alerts the other
devices in the group that there has been a change in recording status on that device. In
response, the other devices in the group start recording an event, each according to its own
configuration.
When VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT is associated with a recording group, it can participate in group
recordings.
Note:
Not all VISTA Body Cameras or VISTA bases have the Wi-Fi® feature. If
you are not sure whether your equipment has the Wi-Fi feature, contact your
WatchGuard representative.
