4 Programming FastTrace
4.1 Programming Checklist
The following checklist provides an overview of the main tasks required to program a FastTrace
and the sequence in which they should be performed:
• Set the unique Site ID and Password for the FastTrace and ensure that matching ones are
entered in VideoCentral (refer to Site Details on page 55).
• Set the time zone on the FastTrace to the time zone of the site location (refer to Date/Time
Settings on page 56).
• Set the communication properties for the FastTrace to dial out (refer to Communications on
page 60).
• Ensure the Call List numbers / addresses are those required to contact the CMS (refer to
Call List on page 69).
• Ensure all connected cameras are programmed (refer to Cameras on page 72 and Camera
Behaviour on page 97).
4.2 Setting the Operational Parameters
The FastTrace is factory configured with 'typical' operating values, but to use the FastTrace in an
operational environment, its configuration must be modified to use the site names, phone
numbers or network addresses that match the real network.
Once the FastTrace settings have been configured, the VideoCentral settings must be updated
to match.
4.2.1 Setting the Network Connection
The ADPRO VideoCentral software will require some basic information in order to connect to any
FastTrace site via a network connection. The minimum information that must be configured in
each FastTrace is shown below.
To enter the information, go to Database / Administration / Configure Sites, select the Edit
option, then highlight Network in the Communications section.
• Site ID: 9 characters (max)
• Password: 8 characters (max)
• IP Address: The TCP/IP network address assigned to each FastTrace (this address is
normally assigned by the network manager)
Your IT manager should be able to provide the IP address settings. Once the basic connection
details have been configured and saved, the FastTrace is ready to connect via the operational
network.
Note: The default FastTrace IP Address is 192.168.1.1.
