Select a Storage Server
1. Select a [Storage Server] from the drop-down menu which lists pre-configured Storage Servers and enter
the Host Name or IP address in [Host Name or IP] and Port number in [Port].
The [Host Name or IP] must be 255 characters or less (each label, separated by a period, must be 63
characters or less) and the [Port] number must be a figure within the range from 1 to 65535.
2. If you do not want the Camera Server to record video, select [Do not record] from the drop-down menu of
[Storage Server].
Configure Recording Stream Usage (VB-C500VD, VB-C500D, VB-C60)
VB-C500VD, VB-C500D and VB-C60 has a video recording stream function that temporarily saves images in
the camera memory as a function to handle packets dropped due to network interruptions, etc.
To use the recording streams, select the [Use the recording-mode stream] checkbox.
Note
z Recording schedules should be set in order to record video.
z There is a maximum number of 64 Camera Servers that can be registered on one Storage Server with
VK-64 (or 16 cameras with Network Video Recorder VK-16).
z If you are using the Viewer only, the Storage Server cannot be configured.
z If you have changed the Camera Server's IP address, you also need to change the host names in the
[Connection Settings] and [Storage Server Settings] dialogs.
Note
z Even if you have selected the [Use the recording-mode stream] checkbox for a camera server set up for a
[Recording Schedules], the settings will not be reflected until the current recording schedule is finished.
If you have selected the [Use the recording-mode stream] checkbox, please restart the storage server.
z The recording streams can only be used for JPEG recording at 10 fps or less. They cannot be used for
JPEG recording at rates higher than 10 fps or for MPEG-4 recording.
z The recording streams cannot accept requests from multiple Storage Server.
If recording stream requests are made to one VB-C500VD, VB-C500D or VB-C60 from multiple clients, the
second and subsequent requests return errors and connect in normal mode.
