The two redundant, hot-swappable PSU have a power socket (1), power switch (2),
PSU status LED (3), cooling module (4), retention screw (5) and an extraction
handle (6).
The cooling modules can operate at three rotation speed settings. Under normal
operating conditions, the cooling fans run at the low speed. Under the following
conditions, cooling fans raise their rotation speed to increase the airflow:
Component failure: if a cooling module, PSU, or a temperature
Elevated temperature: if the temperature breaches the upper
During the system initialization stage, the cooling fans operate
NOTE
There are two upper temperature thresholds: one for event notification and the
other for triggering higher fan rotation speed. The preset-value for event
notification can be changed using the firmware-embedded configuration utility,
while the fan speed trigger cannot be changed. Refer to the Firmware Operation
Manual for details.

Page 37

2.7. System Monitoring Features
There are a number of monitoring approaches that provide the operating status of
individual components.
l2C Bus
The detection circuitry and temperature sensors are interfaced through a non-
user-serviceable I2C bus. When JBODs are attached to RAID controllers, JBOD
component status is reported through in-band protocols over expansion links that
is managed by a proprietary enclosure service.
The operating status of PSU and cooling fan modules are collected through an I2C
serial bus. If either of those modules fails, the failure will be detected and you
will be notified through the same methods as in the audible alarms.
Audible Alarms
If any of the following components fails, the audible alarm will be triggered:
Cooling fan modules
PSU modules
Hard disk drives
Sensors or presence detection circuitries
If the system administrator hears an alarm, the manager must read the error
message on the terminal or software screen to determine what has triggered the
alarm, and then take appropriate actions to rectify the problem. The alarm can
be turned off using the mute button on the front panel and the Alarm beep
pattern is described in the Troubleshooting Guide included in the CD-ROM.
NOTE
When temperature exceeds a preset threshold, the controller’s charger circuits
will stop charging. You will then receive a message that reads “Thermal
Shutdown/Enter Sleep Mode.” When the temperature falls back within normal
range, the battery will resume charging.
Page 38
38
2.8. Expansion Enclosure Support
Monitoring:
A managing RAID system is aware of the status of JBOD components including
those of:
Expander controller (presence, voltage and thermal readings)
PSU
Cooling module
Enclosure thermal sensor
Service (the Service signal to specify a specific enclosure)
Disk drives
JBOD Identifier:
The managing system will sound the alarm and deliver warning messages if there
is a conflict between JBOD IDs.
If more than one JBOD is connected to the managing RAID system, each JBOD
needs a unique enclosure ID set using the rotary switch on the LED panel. For
example, the firmware automatically disconnects the second JBOD if it is
connected online and comes with an ID identical to that of the first JBOD.
NOTE
The IDs for JBODs are #1 to #15. For details, please refer to JBOD connections.
Cooling Module Speed Adjustment:
If any of the detected temperature readings breaches the temperature
threshold, the firmware running on the managing RAID system automatically
raises the rotation speed of all cooling fans.
JBOD Enclosure Status Monitoring:
When connected with expansion JBODs, acquires the component status within
other enclosures via a proprietary enclosure monitoring service using the in-band
connectivity. No additional management connection is required.
Page 39
39
Hot-Swapping
The system comes with a number of hot-swappable components that can be
exchanged while the system is still online without affecting the operational
integrity. These components should only be removed from the system when they
are being replaced.
The following components can be user-maintained and hot-swappable:
PSU (including cooling modules)
Hard drive
NOTE
Normalized airflow ensures sufficient cooling of the system and is only
attained when all components are properly installed. Therefore, a failed
component should only be removed when a replacement is available. For
instructions on how to replace these hot-swappable components, please
refer to System Maintenance.

Chapter 3. Software Overview
3.1. Software Introduction
Video Management Software (VMS) is a highly modular and powerful video and
hardware management suite that incorporates Server recording, management, and
video monitoring and playback functionalities to serve the core purposes of a video
surveillance system.
It operates in a client-server mode: The Local Client and Local Domain Server run
for standalone SMR/NVR/VMS Server, while the Remote Client receives live video
streams and event video playbacks from LAN or Internet. All administrative tasks
are performed on the Client. The client software provides the ability to monitoring
and playback recorded videos from multiple cameras. And for users having multiple
SMR/NVR/VMS Servers, Surveon Control Center (SCC) (its main functions are the
same with the VMS) can be utilized to manage over the domain infrastructure.

3.3.4. Network Requirements
In order to preserve enough bandwidth for surveillance video, a surveillance
network is presumed to be free of user/business traffic. Server software currently
supports Class B and Class C type addresses. Currently the Server software only
searches for Servers on the same subnet. Cameras should also reside on the same
subnet.
Opening Ports
If access through a firewall in a local network is required, try opening the following
ports: SMTP (25), HTTP (80), FTP (20, 21), OMNI (2809), HTTPS (443) and RTSP
(554, 8554.). Other ports should also be opened while using port forwarding to
access the VMS Server: Stream Port (9090), Doman Data Port (9060), Log Download
Message Port (15507) and Log Download Data Port (9080).
Note: Please refer to Port Forwarding Section for more details.
Warnings / Precautions
If the Server and a VMS client reside on separate subnets, please set up gateway,
VLAN, or cross-subnet routing to bridge surveillance traffic. Please consult with a
network administrator for problems with network setups. A VMS client needs to be
rebooted when network settings are changed.

3.4. Port Forwarding
Port forwarding is a name given to the combined technique of:
1. Translating the address and/or port number of a packet to a new destination.
2. Possibly accepting such packet(s) in a packet filter (firewall).
3. Forwarding the packet according to the routing table.
To illustrate its concept, two computers on the Internet that communicate with each
other using TCP/IP or UDP/IP protocols(though the process is not limited to these)
utilize ports to identify the opposite connection points of each other where the data
packets supposed to go to. In order to communicate, each computer knows the port of
another computer (in addition to IP address) and sends the data to that port. Port
forwarding forwards these ports in such a way that when one computer sends data to
the specific port of another computer, the data is actually sent to a different port.
This allows remote computers to connect to a specific computer or service within a
private LAN.
In a typical residential network, nodes obtain Internet access through a DSL or cable
modem connected to a router or network address translator (NAT/NAPT). Hosts on the
private network are connected to an Ethernet switch or communicate via a wireless
LAN. The NAT device's external interface is configured with a public IP address. The
computers behind the router, on the other hand, are invisible to hosts on the Internet
as they each communicate only with a private IP address.
When configuring port forwarding, the network administrator sets aside one port
number on the gateway for the exclusive use of communicating with a service in the
private network, located on a specific host. External hosts must know this port number
and the address of the gateway to communicate with the network-internal service.
When used on gateway devices, a port forward may be implemented with a single rule
to translate the destination address and port. The source address and port are, in this
case, left unchanged. When used on machines that are not the default gateway of the
network, the source address must be changed to be the address of the translating
machine, or packets will bypass the translator and the connection will fail.

3.4.1. Port Forwarding for Accessing VMS Server
To enable port forwarding for accessing VMS Server, please follow the steps below:
1. Do Router Port Mapping for VMS/NVR Server

2. Open Ports on the Router
Host Ports: The private ports that the internal VMS/NVR Server use, which are
unchangeable.
Global Ports: The public ports for remote clients to connect to the internal
VMS/NVR Server. The Global ports are changeable, but the simplest way is to make
them the same with the host ports.
Please open the listed ports on your router:
(When the option “Enable Automatic UPnP Mapping” is selected, this step can be
skipped.)

4.3. Hard Drives Installation
Hard disk drives are purchased separately. When selecting hard disk drives (HDD), HDD
manufacturers always urge users to choose enterprise/surveillance grade drives for
24/7 surveillance operations to ensure system stability. The surveillance hard drives
on our Approved Vendor List (AVL) are engineered to work continuously, withstand
high-temperature fluctuations and equipment vibrations found in any typical
surveillance application. To reduce errors occurred on your RAID data and the chance
of the recording performance being affected, it is highly recommended to use HDDs
listed on our Approved Vendor List (AVL) to ensure reliability. Find the AVL on our web
page: http://www.surveon.com/support/hardware.asp
4.3.1. Prerequisites
Hard drives are separately purchased and when purchasing hard drives, the
following factors should be considered:
Capacity (MB/GB): Use hard drives that have the same capacity and rotation speeds.
RAID arrays use a “least-common-denominator” approach meaning the maximum
capacity used in each drive for comprising a logical configuration is the maximum
capacity of the smallest drive.
Drive Interface Type: The enclosure accommodates SATA-II or SATA-III hard drives.
Note: The hard drives and drive trays should only be installed into the system after it
has been mounted into a rack cabinet. If the hard drives are installed first, the
system will be too heavy to handle and the possible impact during installation
may damage your hard drives.
Users MUST install at least ONE hard drive into slot 1 to setup the system. It is
strongly recommended to install at least TWO hard drives upon initialization!

RAID Configuration: Below is a list of the level of fault tolerance for different RAID
levels:
Hard drive for storage: It is recommended to use hard drives that are of the same
brand, capacity, rotation speed and same model in an enclosure. RAID arrays use a
“least-common-denominator” approach meaning the maximum capacity used in
each drive for comprising a logical configuration is the maximum capacity of the
smallest drive.
Note: Hard drives dedicated for OS will have certain storage capacities that are
unavailable for use towards the total storage capacity.
WARNING
Make sure all enclosure tray slots are filled a hard drive tray (with or with a hard drive) as an
empty tray slot may affect the airflow efficiency of the enclosure!
The hard drives should only be installed into the system AFTER the enclosure has been rack
mounted as the combined weight will be too heavy to handle.
Handle hard drives with extreme care and observe all ESD prevention methods when installing
drives.
Only use screws supplied with the system package. Longer screws may damage the hard drives
or its trays.
