Format the archive drive

The Archive drive is not recycled automatically. To reuse a DVD 
RAM cartridge or removable disk (hot swappable IDE or SCSI 
drive), you must format the device before recording any video on 
it and re-format it after it is full. On the Disk screen (MENU 

 

Storage Setup 

 Disks), select the Archive Disk and then press 

Normal Format.

Note

A CD R/W drive does not require formatting.

Format the hard drive

See page 3. 

Reboot (restart) the DVMS

There is no on/off switch on the DVMS 1600/800 unit. To restart 
it, disconnect the power cable from either the DVMS 1600/800 
unit or from the wall socket. Wait approximately 15 to 20 
seconds and power up the DVMS 1600/800 unit by re-connecting 
the power cable.

Reset passwords

If you need to reset the passwords for the DVMS 1600/800 unit 
and CANNOT access the Main Menu, contact Technical Support 
to either:

Receive a Service Card (a PCMCIA card) that allows you to 
reset the passwords back to factory defaults. 

Note

There is a charge for the Service Card.

Obtain an RA# to return the unit to Silent Witness Customer 
Service to have them reset it for you.

Upgrade the DVMS firmware

Occasionally you may need to upgrade the DVMS firmware to 
support the latest feature set. Upgrades are available on the Silent 
Witness web site at 

http://www.silentwitness.com

. To upgrade the 

DVMS firmware:

1.

Download the DVMS 1600 Software (or DVMS 800 Software) 
to the PC you will use to connect to the DVMS 1600/800 unit 
for upgrading.

2.

Unzip the downloaded DVMS firmware file 
(dvms1600_firmware_1xx

1

g.zip or dvms

8il_xxg.bin) for sending to the DVMS 1600/800 unit.

3.

Refer to the upgrade notes on our web site (
