®
V2,
equIP
®
H.264, equIP
®
1080p, equIP
®
Performance IP, and/or HD3/4 IP cameras on Hybrid LT V10.1 units. Some
ONVIF IP cameras are also supported (see

for a complete list of supported IP
cameras). Rapid Eye Hybrid LT V10.0 units do not support Honeywell
Performance IP, equIP
®
1080p, equIP
®
Wide Dynamic Range IP, and ONVIF
IP cameras, and support fewer IP channels if Local Monitoring (LocalView) is
enabled. Refer to the
Rapid Eye System Administrator Guide
included on the
documentation CD for information on enabling or disabling Local
Monitoring.
Refer also to the
Rapid Eye System Administrator Guide
for a complete list of
IP cameras supported (and their supported features) by Rapid Eye Hybrid
LT V10.1 and V10.0 DVRs.
Connect the IP cameras to the Local Area Network (LAN) where your unit is
installed. See the documentation that was included with the camera to install
and connect the camera to the Local Area Network. See
for information on setting up UP cameras for use in
your Rapid Eye Hybrid LT system.
Analog Camera(s)
Connect each camera to a VIDEO INPUT connector at the rear of the Rapid
Eye Hybrid LT unit.
Connecting a Monitor, Mouse and Keyboard
Connect a VGA monitor to the VGA port at the rear of the unit. If possible,
connect a USB keyboard (not included) to the unit; if the keyboard has two
USB connectors,
connect each one
. Connect the supplied USB mouse, or
your own mouse, to use with LocalView.
2 Powering the Unit and the Cameras
Using an Uninterruptible Power Supply
Honeywell recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for the
Rapid Eye Hybrid LT DVR
and the cameras
. Powering the cameras and unit
from a UPS ensures that the Rapid Eye Hybrid LT can continue to record
video during a power outage. If you need to monitor video during a power
outage, consider a UPS for the monitor as well.

3 The Start-up Sequence

Note
When the unit powers up, you will have the option of booting the
unit from either the primary or recovery operating system. Use
the primary OS boot-up unless an OS recovery is required. The
primary boot-up is the default and will be run automatically after
5 seconds. See the
Rapid Eye Hybrid LT Installation Guide

Automatic
option is selected.
