Recording Groups
Recording Groups
A recording group consists of a network of devices communicating with each other whenever
one of them changes its recording status. A recording group is typically linked to a vehicle.
When you use VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT as part of the VISTA Vehicle Kit, you can form a
recording group if you have at least two cameras paired with a vehicle's VISTA WiFi Base.
Members of the recording group
A local recording group using the VISTA Vehicle Kit includes the following members, joined
together with either wired or wireless connections:
l
Smart Power Switch
l
VISTA WiFi Base
l
Two or more VISTA WiFi or VISTA XLT cameras
For information about installing the VISTA Vehicle Kit equipment for the recording group, see

Smart Power Switch
As part of the local recording group network, the Smart Power Switch:
l
Functions as the connection point for power and external inputs
l
Notifies the recording group network that an auto-start recording input was activated
l
Intelligently manages power
l
Functions as the local network DHCP server
With the VISTA Vehicle Kit, the Smart Power Switch is REQUIRED. There can only be one Smart
Power Switch in a recording group.
