6.6.2 Remote Control
There are two remote control programs available for controlling the recorder over the Ethernet. Remote Display is
recommended if you are on the same network as the recorder.
Remote Manager allows control of the recorder
over a wide area network (WAN) when the recorder is on the other side of a firewall. The Remote Manager funnels
all communication through a single port and is consequently slower than the Remote Display. Both programs allow
a user to sit at a PC and operate the recorder as though they were right at the unit.
6.6.2.1 Remote Display
The Remote Display program is installed from the software installation disk that came with the
recorder. This program requires support programs that need to be in the correct folder which is
managed by the installation. If these files do not exist you will get an error message. This program
will only work on a local area network. Once installed it is launched by double clicking the Remote
Display Icon shown right. This launches the program window as shown below.
Select an IP Address from the pull down menu or add a new one
by clicking the ADD Recorder Icon
– shown right. This will pop up
a form to enter IP Address, Description and User name. Once this
is added click the ADD button to close.
Enter the password (which is never stored) and then press the Connect Icon –
This will launch a separate window and make connection with the recorder. It will display a real time image of
the recorder screen which updates every second and is interactive. Use the mouse cursor to tap on the
“screen” as though you were touching the actual recorder screen. You can now do everything you could if you
were physically in front of the actual recorder.
The window menu functions are
File: Connect or Exit. These should not be used but
rather use the control window above.
Zoom: This enables x1, x2 or x3 zoom of the recorder
screen in the window.
Tools: Send all mouse moves – this is active
irrespective of the setting.
Help: About shows the copyright and version number
You may control the recorder any way you wish. To
terminate the connection hit the “X” in the upper right
corner or preferably the disconnect button in the
control window
