Using VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT with a Recording Group
VISTA WiFi and VISTA XLT behavior during a group recording
Any DVR device (4RE, VISTA WiFi, or VISTA XLT) in the recording group can start a recorded
event. The other DVR devices in the group are informed of that change in recording status, so
they can join in the group recording.
For more information on the VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT camera's role in a recording group, see
What happens when:
l
You try to manually start a recorded event on VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT just after it has
automatically started an event as part of a group recording?
If you have pressed the
Record Start/Stop
button within 10 seconds of the automatic group
recording start, VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT asks you to confirm that you want to STOP the
recorded event with your
Record Start/Stop
button press. If you do not press the
Record
Start/Stop
button again within 5 seconds, the camera continues recording the event as part
of the group recording.
If you press the button a second time within 5 seconds, the camera stops recording the event.
Because VISTA WiFi and VISTA XLT connect to the recording group with a Wi-Fi connection
(through the WiFi Base), VISTA WiFi and VISTA XLT can move into and out of the recording
group range.
What happens when:
l
The VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that INITIATED the group recording moves out of range during
the group recording?
All the devices in the recording group keep recording until the 4RE stops the group recording or
each individual member stops its own event. The initiating device moving out of range does not
affect the other devices' ability to start, stop, and categorize their own events.
The VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that went out of range keeps recording the event until it is
manually stopped. A device moving out of range does not affect its ability to start, stop, and
categorize its own events.
l
A VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that is part of a group recording moves out of range during the group
recording?
The VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT keeps recording the event until it is manually stopped. A device
moving out of range does not affect its ability to start, stop, and categorize its own events.
l
The group recording is stopped while a VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that is part of that group
recording is out of range?
The out-of-range VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT keeps recording the event until it is manually
stopped OR moves back into range of the group network.
When the VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that is still recording moves back into range, it is informed
that its associated group has stopped the group recording. It then stops its own event.
l
A VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT that is not currently recording an event walks into range of an
associated recording group network during a group recording?
When the VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT moves into range, it is informed that its associated group
has started a group recording. It then begins its own event to join the group recording.
