Starting and Ending a Monitoring
Session
To start a monitoring session with the system, you have to start the DVR Utility Software and log into
the system. Follow these steps:
b Starting the Software
1
Plug in the hardware key.
The hardware key (supplied in the
Standard Edition package) must be
plugged into a USB port of your
computer.
2
Double-click the DVR Utility shortcut
icon on the desktop.
Alternatively, click Windows Start button,
point to [Programs], point to the [DVR
Utility] group, and then click [DVR Utility].
The Login window appears.
If you are using the Light Edition
(VA-SW8000LITE), which does not include
the hardware key, simply start the software.
When you have started VA-SW8000LITE, you
are prompted to type in the serial number
indicated on the CD-ROM disc label. Type in
the correct number, and the Login window
appears.
Starting the software without
the hardware key
The dialog box that prompts you to
type in the serial number appears
once and only once when you start
the software for the first time.
If the serial number dialog box
appears when you are starting the
Standard Edition (VA-SW8000), it
means that the hardware key is not
correctly plugged in. If this is the
case, make sure that the hardware
key is in place, and try again to start
the software.
