Health Check
FVMS Health Check is used to monitor the status of Network, Video, Recording, and
HDD storage space on remotely connected Fusion DVRs. Health Check also provides
the user with detailed information on each of the DVRs connected, including the
software version running, whether cameras are recording in Motion or Continuous mode
and other important information. The DVR transmits this information on port 4005
(default). You can also enable E-mail alarms to be sent on a Health Check Event
(Warning or Failure event).

triggered.

minutes or up to once every 7days.
