Title TransVu 3 DVR Installation Manual NetVu Ltd. www.netvu.org.uk No 1 Thellow Heath Park, Northwich Road, Northwich, Cheshire. CW9 6JB Installing TransVu 3 Before you start check the contents of the box The box should contain the following items TransVu 3 DVR, including base plate, 4 off shock mounts and shock mount fittings (fitted to the chassis). Accessories: • Hard Drive Caddy Key Physical Installation The TransVu 3 can be mounted horizontally or vertically. It is recommended that it is mounted horizontally; the unit does not have to be orientated to the direction of vehicle travel. Sufficient space must be provided around the unit, connector and cable to allow a small amount of movement, particularly in the vertical axis, for the anti-vibration mounts to work effectively. The TransVu 3 is fixed to the vehicle via a mounting plate:

Title TransVu 3 DVR Installation Manual NetVu Ltd. www.netvu.org.uk No 1 Thellow Heath Park, Northwich Road, Northwich, Cheshire. CW9 6JB It should be mounted as low as possible within the vehicle, on a secure base free from resonance and secondary vibrations. The TransVu 3 is secured to the mounting plate via four shock absorbing fixings. This dramatically reduces the effects of vehicle borne vibrations and enables the system to operate in harsh shock environments. To mount the TransVu 3 on to the baseplate take the following steps: 1. Fix each of the four shock absorbers to the TransVu base from underneath using two 6 UNC screws provided. These must be fixed using loctite on the screw threads. 2. Fit the lower washer to the stud. 3. Lower the TransVu and mounted shock absorbers onto the baseplate, refer to “Mounting the Baseplate”. 4. Put a snubbing washer on each of the four studs on top of the shock absorbers. 5. Fix the TransVu in place by using four 8 UNC Nylock nuts.

Title TransVu 3 DVR Installation Manual NetVu Ltd. www.netvu.org.uk No 1 Thellow Heath Park, Northwich Road, Northwich, Cheshire. CW9 6JB Vibration will cause the TransVu 3 to move on the shock mounts. Allow clearance around the unit to accommodate this movement. It is recommended that a minimum fitment volume of 330mm (13 ”) x 300mm (12 “) x 130mm (5 “) is allowed. Total height of enclosure for TransVu 3 is 130 mm (3½ “) Mounting the Baseplate The TransVu 3 baseplate should be secured to the vehicle using appropriate nuts, bolts and shake- proof washers. The baseplate should preferably be mounted horizontally although it can be mounted vertically if absolutely necessary. The unit does not require alignment with the normal direction of travel of the vehicle. Care in Feeding Cables Ensure the cables feeding the connectors are clamped to the same mounting surface as the TransVu 3. This will help avoid any vibration being transmitted along them to the unit. Recommended fitment area - 330mm (13”) x 300mm (12“) Minimum height of enclosure - 130mm (5“) Additional space should be allowed around the electrical connectors to allow the disconnection of the cables from the unit.

Title TransVu 3 DVR Installation Manual NetVu Ltd. www.netvu.org.uk No 1 Thellow Heath Park, Northwich Road, Northwich, Cheshire. CW9 6JB The new approach allows the monitoring of alarm inputs local to the unit itself (such as physical alarm inputs, Video Motion Detection and camera failure), alarm inputs at each camera and virtual alarm inputs and variables received over the network from other third-party systems. Expression: The first column in the page is used to enter the details of the alarm input or trigger which will cause the associated actions in the same row to take place. All devices (physical or virtual) which can trigger events are named. One example is LOCAL_INPUT_1, which is physical alarm input number 1, connected to the 25-way alarm input connector on the rear panel of the NVR. Another example is VMD(1) which is a video motion detection alarm from camera number 1. A complete list of expression keywords can be seen by viewing the System>Status>About>Alarm Keywords page of the NVR. Actions (active): The second column in the page is used to enter the required action desired when the expression in the left-hand column is true (active). Actions (inactive): The third column in the page is used to enter the required action desired when the expression in the left-hand column is not true (inactive). For example, remembering that that the physical alarm inputs on the unit are normally closed (N/C), the expression C=NOT LOCAL_INPUT2 means that this will be the condition where Alarm Input #2 is open circuit (not closed). In that case, the action DBASE 1 System ALARM creates a database entry for camera 1 being in the ALARM state. When alarm input #2 returns to the normal state (closed) then the action DBASE 1 System CLEAR creates a database entry for camera 1 being in the CLEAR state. Similarly, the expression: F = ACTIVITY(4).EXTEND(3): means that when momentary activity is detected on camera 4 that this brief trigger will create a condition that lasts at least three seconds, and if more activity occurs it re- triggers without creating a new event Actions (active) REC(4) E: means that when the above condition occurs camera 4 will be recorded using the EVENT profile Actions (Inactive) REC(4) N: means that when the above condition ends camera 4 will be recorded using the NORMAL profile You can have more than one action, by separating the actions with a semi-colon. The 'left-hand side' of the expression can be any unique label. In the above example “A”, “B”, “C” etc are used but the label can be anything as long as it is unique and does not clash with other labels. Clear: Clears all currently programmed alarm expressions. Restore: Restores all previously cleared alarm expressions. Validate: Checks for any illegal values / none existent variables / names. Commit: Saves the listed expressions Show User expressions Only: displays only expressions which have been created manually and not by a wizard.

Network Pages The Network pages configure the various network settings of the unit and features which use network connectivity. Network – Setup page The page configures the network connection to the TransVu 3 and displays current settings. System Name: This field can be edited to allocate a name to the unit. This would be used if accessing the unit using a Domain Name Server (DNS). The setting is the same as the system name displayed in the System Attributes menu and defaults to the unit serial number. IP Address: IP Address is a 32-bit number that uniquely identifies a unit on a TCP/IP network. To set DHCP usage and obtain an IP address from the general/corporate network set address to 0.0.0.0

Title TransVu 3 DVR Installation Manual NetVu Ltd. www.netvu.org.uk No 1 Thellow Heath Park, Northwich Road, Northwich, Cheshire. CW9 6JB Sub Net: Subnet mask is used by the TCP/IP protocol to determine whether the host communicating with the TransVu 3 is on the local subnet or on a remote network. Subnets are determined by the class (A, B, or C) of TCP/IP network and by how much the network has been further divided (sub-netted), by a system administrator. Gateway: If the unit communicates with a host on another subnet, it will talk through a device called a router which links the TransVu 3 subnet to other networks, the IP address of this router is called a default gateway. Primary DNS: This is the primary DNS server IP address for applications that are using domain names. If you want to use other DNS addresses from other units sitting on another domain on the internet you need to add the IP address of your domains DNS server. This is done in this Primary DNS setting. Adding the primary DNS server just means that the unit can use DNS names that that the primary DNS server can see. It should be noted that DNS works hierarchically, such that firstly any DNS enabled product will look at it local hosts.ini entries first. If it cannot find any reference there it looks in the DNS mapping in its primary DNS server and if it is not there this will be referred out further. Max Transmission Rate (kbits/s): Allows you to set the maximum transmission speed for the network type, consult the network administrator if necessary. Tx Image Buffers: This is used in order to improve the picture delivery over Ethernet, use 1 for a low bandwidth connection, and 3 for a higher bandwidth. This limits the amount of frame buffering in transmission between TransVu 3 and client. This is used in order to improve the picture delivery over Ethernet when using a slow connection, i.e. 256Kbps. Options available are 1, 2 or 3 buffers. Ethernet MTU Bytes: The MTU is the largest physical packet size measured in bytes that the network can transmit, default is set at 1500bytes. This is the maximum transmission unit (MTU) in bytes of the largest packet that can be passed through the network interface. Typically, 1500 is a good default for most networks, speak to your network administrator if this needs to be matched to suit your network topology.
