Notes

What are the
options in the
TVN40 context
menu

When you right-click on a device or
node in the Navigator, you see a context
menu with functional choices for that
device. This purpose of this section is to
explain each of the choices with respect
to the TVN40 context menu.

Run Health Diagnostics - this option
captures the health diagnostics from the
device.

Run Disk Analysis – this option captures
a snapshot of the recorded video on the
device that is eligible for playback.

Add IP Cameras - this launches the Add
Camera form where you can bind your
IP Cameras to that particular TVN40.

Delete IP Cameras- this deletes all of
the cameras that were previously bound
to the TVN40. It also deletes all related
recorded video for those cameras on the
TVN40.

Configure Device - this launches the
TVN40 Configuration form where you
can set things such as NTP Address,
MTU Size, etc…

Upload Firmware – this allows for
firmware uploads to the device.

Reboot Device - this option reboots the
TVN40 remotely.

ReSync from Device - this option is only
available to users in Standalone or
Direct Database Connection (DDbC)
Installations. It allows the user to sync
his/her local TruVision Navigator
database with the device's current
configuration. This configuration may
have been changed by users of other
standalone TruVision Navigator systems
so this option is required to keep
multiple different standalone systems in
sync. For ultimate control over this
situation, we recommend the Tradition
Client/Server architecture where this can
be governed as needed by the
Administrator. This stands for the DVRs
as well.

Repair Device - Should, for any reason, your
TVN40's configuration become corrupted,
there are 2 options to restore it to use. When
selecting this option, you will be prompted to
select 1 of the 2 options as per below:

Last Known Configuration (Recommended):
this option takes the last known configuration
that was saved to the TVN40 out of the
TruVision Navigator Database and pushes it
again to the device. All IP Camera
configurations and recorded video storage
remain in tact with this option. -OR-

Factory Default Settings: this option restores
factory defaults on the device, except for its
IP Address - that remains the same.
However, all IP Camera configurations are
removed along with any recorded video
storage. This option also reboots the unit
upon completion of the factory default.

Delete Device - this option deletes the TVN40
from the Navigator. It does NOT delete any
configurations, IP Cameras, or storage from
the device itself.

Rename Device - this allows the user to
rename the TVN40.

Properties – this shows the Connection,
Details, Capabilities, and IP Camera
information associated with the device.
