Redundant VIGIL

Server

This feature only applies to Analog Cameras. A redundant VIGIL Server is used for backup recording in
case of a VIGIL Server failure. If Redundant VIGIL Server is enabled, the Sentinel service will not display an
error if there is no footage recorded in 24 hours. Redundant VIGIL Servers are normally used only in systems
set up with VIGIL Server Health Monitor configured to use a Matrix switch for failover. Please contact 3xLOGIC
for more information about this feature.

watchdog circuit is functioning by clicking the Test Watchdog button. The VIGIL Server should reboot within a
few minutes if the watchdog is functioning correctly. This function only works with Analog Capture Cards that
support this feature.  This Feature is not available on NVRs.

edgeable Errors
