Digital Ally Inc.| DVM Configuration Overview

2-1

Section - 2: DVM Configuration Overview

Many customizable features are available for the DVM-800. The file that is used to update the DVM

configuration is named “deviceconfig”. This file contains all of the necessary wireless settings,

operational settings, and user logins. Section 3 will guide you through the process of creating the

configuration file using the Settings tab within the VuVault™ back office software. You will then save

the file using the Media Card Admin Tab within VuVault™ (Refer to Section 3-11 for details).

Once the configuration file has been created within VuVault, use one of the following methods to

update the DVM:

The DVM must be initially be configured for wireless communication using the SD card method

before Wireless Updates can be utilized.

Using your External SD Card

a. Copy the “deviceconfig” file to a SD card.

b. Install the SD card into the external card slot of the DVM.

c. The DVM will reboot and load the settings from the new configuration file. The old

configuration settings will be overwritten and discarded.

Wireless Updates

a) Once the new configuration is saved in VuVault, go to “Media Card Admin” and click

“Save to Folder”. Navigate to the local hard drive folder to which you wish to save

the “deviceconfig” file.

b) Open the WTM-Lite™program and click the “Update Devices” button, then the

“Deploy Update Files” button. (See the VuVault Wireless Server Setup Guide for

details).

c) Navigate to the hard drive location for “deviceconfig”, click on the file then press

OK.

d) Select the device or devices to update and press “Done”.

e) When the DVM reconnects to the FTP server, it will use settings from the new

configuration file. The old configuration settings will be overwritten and discarded.

If the Recording Mode of the DVM is set to ECA (Evidence Capture Assurance), the DVM will

not make any attempts to wirelessly connect to the FTP server unless there is at least one

Event Recording present on the DVM to be uploaded. In this case, you may make a quick

recording on the DVM to enable WiFi to connect. This will allow a new configuration or

firmware file to transfer from the server to the DVM.

Once the update process has started:

Do not remove power

Do not turn the ignition off

Do not remove the external SD card

Digital Ally Inc.| Device Configuration

3-1

Section - 3: Device Configuration

The DVM-800 is shipped with a default configuration so it can be used immediately after installation.

However, many parameters can be configured and saved as an activation file. The activation file is saved

to a local hard drive or external SD card. The DVM-800 is activated and configured using Digital Ally’s

VuVault™ back-office software. Use the VuVault Installation Guide to install the VuVault software. Once

installed, follow the instructions in this section to configure and activate your DVM.

ONCE THE DESIRED SETTINGS HAVE BEEN ENTERED, CLICK AND PROCEED TO SECTION 3.11

TO ACTIVATE YOUR SD CARD.

3.1 Default Configuration

If the unit has never been activated, it will use the following default settings preset from the

factory.

User Name/Password login entry

English language

Central Standard Time

Date format: mm/dd/yy

Time format: 12 hour time

Daylight saving time (DST) enabled

STANDBY mode, 30 second pre-event recording turned on.

resolution

3.2 Using VuVault to Configure your DVM-800

VuVault is used to manage DVM-800 settings as well as activate a

DVM device or an external memory card for use in a DVM-800.

Before you can configure your device for use within VuVault, the

DVM serial number must be added into the system. Add your

device into VuVault by selecting Admin > Devices > Advanced >

Add Device. Type in your device serial number and assign it a name

within the system (the serial number is located on the back of the

DVM). When done, press Save (for more information consult the

VuVault Administrator Guide “Adding Devices” section).

Go to the Admin>Devices Tab. A separate configuration field will be available once a valid serial number

for the device has been added into the system. These settings will define how all users will interface

with the DVM (see below). Click on each sub-heading to reveal the available configuration options.

When done, press Save.

The button in the lower part of the main screen can be used to reset all configurations for

this device to the factory settings. This will not have any effect on the WTM Settings for wireless

connectivity located in the Data Transfer screen.

3.3 General

Location

Below are the configuration items for localization which are provided to address Date/Time settings and

display formats.

Local Time Zone

The local time zone is used to adjust the device when synchronizing to the Greenwich Mean

Time through the DVM-800 GPS antenna. Choose the time zone for your location.

Date Format

The date format displayed on the event recordings is selected through this setting.

Settings: mm/dd/yy [default]; yy/mm/dd; dd/mm/yy

Clock Source

Choose to receive the time setting automatically through the GPS signal or manually through the

DVM menu.

Settings: Manual, GPS [default]

Daylight Saving

Enable Daylight Saving setting and the time will be automatically adjusted for Daylight Saving

for the configured Local Time Zone. If this is disabled, time will not be adjusted for

Daylight Saving.

Settings: No, Yes [default]

Time Format

This time format allows the DVM-800 to be configured in a 12-hour format or a 24-hour format.

Settings: 24 Hour, 12 Hour [default]

Display

LCD Brightness

The LCD brightness is separately adjustable for day and night modes. To use this setting, choose

the desired brightness setting for day and night modes. A light sensor located on the front of the

DVM automatically places the system in the correct mode (day or night). This sensor uses a

sampling filter to sense changes in ambient light; therefore some delay will be present when

switching between the two modes. This is designed to prevent the DVM from switching

unnecessarily when the dome light or car door is opened, for example.

Settings: Day Mode 1-7 [Default =5]

Night Mode 1-7 [Default =5]

The LCD brightness setting can be temporarily overridden by the DVM operator. See page

5-5 for more information.

Record LED Behavior

The Red Record LED behavior is adjustable to accommodate your desired operation when the

DVM is in record mode.

Settings: Off (Stealth Mode), Slow, Medium, Fast, Solid [default]

LCD Mode

This parameter defines how the LCD screen will operate during pre-event and during recorded

events. Consult the table below.

Settings: Off, On, Auto [default]

Setting

LCD Behavior

LCD will always be ON during pre-event & event recording.

User cannot turn off the LCD unless using covert mode.

OFF

LCD is ON as mirror boots-up to allow user login.

LCD is OFF during pre-event.

LCD is OFF during recorded events.

LCD can be forced to stay ON by holding the DOWN key for 3 seconds.

As soon as a recording completes, the LCD will remain ON for the duration of the Entry

Timeout as configured in VuVault to allow user input profiling screens (if profiling

screens are enabled).

AUTO

LCD is ON as mirror boots-up to allow user login.

LCD is OFF during pre-event.

LCD is ON during recorded events.

LCD can be forced to stay ON by holding the DOWN key for 3 seconds.

As soon as a recording completes, the LCD will remain ON for the duration of the Entry

Timeout as configured in VuVault to allow use of profiling screens (if profiling screens

are enabled).

Table 4-4: Choosing your LCD display behavior

This LCD behavior can be overridden for external sensors such as the light bar or reverse gear. LCD

overrides for connected external sensors are configured separately in the IF box input sensors section.
