On the first startup, VideoSyncPro shows a network selector dialog, to ensure that the correct network adapter handles the communication:
IMPORTANT: Before you can perform the required configuration steps:
- Log on as a VideoSyncPro Administrator.
Change Current User
In the bottom left corner of your VideoSyncPro Window, you can see the name of the current user.
Per default is states:
Logged-in as: Standard user
To gain configuration rights, change the current user:
▪Click the shield icon in the upper right corner, to get to this login dialog:
▪Select Admin from the User type list.
▪Enter a password (default password 'admin') and click Login.
Now you have sufficient rights to configure the recording system and to make changes to all program settings.
NOTE: To permanently start the program with a login window, the default user named Standard user needs to be deleted.
Camera Network Selection
▪Click Select network to pick the applicable network range, as setup in Configure Network Adapter:
▪Confirm your selection with OK.
As soon as you selected your camera network, the wizard continues with the source definition, as described in Define Common Sources.
File Storage Settings
You need to make sure that your storage location is pointing to a drive with enough free disc space.
Per default, a Mangold Videos folder is created on in the default <User>/Videos directory. You can change the location in the program settings, as is described in Storage Settings.
IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend to make recordings on a local drive only. Even the lightest network hick-up may cause the termination of the video recording without any feedback, resulting in massive data loss. If you decide to record on a NAS or other network drive, any loss of data is not our responsibility.
