Before You Start
Avigilon recommends:
l
The use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to protect your video surveillance system
hardware. A UPS system is used to protect critical equipment from mains supply problems, including
spikes, voltage dips, fluctuations and complete power failures using a dedicated battery. It can also
be used to power equipment during the time it takes for a standby generator to be started and
synchronized.
If possible, the UPS connection should include configuration to shut down the operating system on
the appliance when battery power is low or there is 15 minutes of power remaining.
l
Cameras not be connected to the appliance until after the appropriate network configuration has
been set up.
