The PC Software Package WV-ASM200 (hereinafter this software) is designed for integrated management of multiple Panasonic network disk recorders and digital disk recorders (hereinafter recorders), network interface unit (hereinafter encoders) and network cameras (hereinafter cameras) connected to a network such as a LAN or the Internet, and runs on the Microsoft® Windows® operating system. Refer to the "Compatible devices" section (+ page 5) for the devices compatible with this software.

By using this software on a personal computer (hereinafter PC) via a network, it is possible to display live images of the cameras, to play images stored on the recorder, and to download image files to the hard disk drive of the PC.

Software configuration

This software consists of the following 3 applications: Setup software: The settings required to run the operation software can be conﬁgured

and managed with this software.

Operation software: Displaying live images, playback, downloading, searching for images

stored on the recorder, and controlling of the camera is available using this software.

Service software: Reception of Panasonic alarm protocol and auto deletion of the operation

log will be carried out by this software.

This is the resident application (in the system tray). Once the PC is turned

on, the service software runs in the background of the PC.

System configuration

†1: When the system is configured as "System A" in the illustration above, live images from the cameras con-

nected to the recorder can directly be monitored with this software, not through the recorder.

To monitor live images directly from the cameras with this software, the following are necessary.

†2: The system controller is optional.

Important:

Do not use cross cables to connect the PC and each device.• When connecting multiple system controllers, operation of this software is not guaranteed.•
