Network Failure Detection
System > Network failure detection
Ping request
The network failure detection function enables the HSD820 to test the connection between the
camera and a target host on the network (for example, an NVR, VMS, or Video Server). The
camera can ping the remote machine - that is, send data packets to it, with configurable
intervals to determine if it is accessible and responding. Appropriate actions can be selected to
be triggered if the ping request times out without a response. Being capable of implementing
local recording when network failure occurs, the camera can be a backup recording device for
the surveillance system.
Detection Switch
Click On or Off to enable or disable the Network failure detection alarm, respectively.
Alternatively, you can use By schedule to activate Network Failure Detection according to a
