Adding a Generic DVR module

  1. Right-click the configuration file in the column on the left and choose Generic DVR from the Add new module context menu. A new entry is created under the configuration file in the menu tree (see Configuring the generic DVR module).
  2. Change the module name.
  3. Enter the IP address of the core server.
  4. Do not use localhost or 127.0.0.1 as the entry as other services must communicate via these IP addresses.

    The service ID changes after the first connection to the server.

    Do not reset the service ID without talking to OnSSI Support first.

  5. Click the Connection test button to check the connection between the module and the main server. If the module does not connect, check and configure the network and the firewall settings.
  6. Select the module IP.
  7. Enter the module port used by the Generic DVR module.
  8. Select Enforce 32-bit if the devices are not 64-bit capable. This setting only applies to devices that have not yet been released for 64-bit.
  9. Do not change to 32-bit mode without talking to OnSSI Support first.

  10. Click Save to save the changes.
  11. Restart the services (see Ocularis Recorder Service Manager) or add further modules.
