Vess A3340 Storage Appliance for Video Surveillance

About this guide

This Quick Start Guide provides an introduction to the hardware components of the

Vess A3340s and Vess A3340d Storage Appliance for Video Surveillance, as well as

instructions for how to install the device in an equipment rack, and how to connect the

power, a keyboard and monitor used for the initial conguration setup. Then power

on the system, login as administrator and create a RAID drive for storage video data.

When you have completed the instruction in this guide, you need to read the Product

Manual, and other user documentation available from Promise, for additional instruc-

tions on how to connect the system to the surveillance network, connect to additional

network storage if needed, how to install video management software, how to admin-

ister, manage and maintain the system, as well as how best to scale the system to suit

the requirements of your surveillance and data storage network.

This guide also includes information about:

• Product Registration page 30

• Contacting Technical Support page 35

IntroductIon

The Vess A3340s and Vess A3340d Storage Appliance for Video Surveillance, as the

name implies, combines an NVR server for video data compression, recording and

playback, with built-in RAID storage for saving the video data. All Vess A Series Stor-

age Appliance for Video Surveillance systems are scalable with additional Vess A

Series systems for video data and Vess R2000 Series storage subsystem and Vess

J2000 JBOD storage.

The Vess A3340d features swappable redundant power supplies. The Vess A3340s

uses a single power supply, but is otherwise identical to the Vess A3340d.

tAsk 2: Mounting Vess A3340s/A3340din ARAck

The instructions here apply to the all Vess A3340s/A3340d Series 2U form factor mod-

els.

Cautions

* Do not lift or move the Vess A3340s/A3340d unit by the handles

on the ear brackets in front. Hold the system itself.

* Do not install the Vess A3340s/A3340d unit into a rack without

rails to support the system.

* Only a qualied technician who is familiar with the installation

procedure should mount and install the Vess A3340s/A3340d

unit.

* Mount the rails to the rack using the appropriate screws and

ange nuts, fully tightened, at each end of the rail.

* Do not load the rails unless they are installed with screws as

instructed.

* The rails available for the Vess A3340s/A3340d unit are

designed to safely support that Vess A3340s/A3340d unit when

properly installed. Additional loading on the rails is at the

customer’s risk.

* The mounting rails will support your Vess A3340s/A3340d unit

only if installed as instructed.

* Do not install hard disk drives in the system until after placing

the system in the rack.

The Vess A3340s/A3340d installs in a 19” equipment rack. Please examine the illustra-

tions in this section to make sure you are using the correct type of rack.

In order to place the system in the rack, rst attach the ear brackets to the front of the

device. Then install the sliding rail system in the rack. Finally place the device on the

sliding rails and secure it to the rack. Use only the screws and fasteners included with

the shipment of the sliding rail system, or with the Vess A3340s/A3340d. This proce-

dure is described and illustrated in the sections that follow below.

Promise Technology

Quick Installation Guide

AttAch eAr brAckets to front

Ear brackets used for rack installation are available for additional purchase. These at-

tach at the front sides of the device housing. Once the brackets are securely attached

and the unit has been properly installed in the sliding rail system, these handles can

be used to pull or push the device out or into the rack system, while the sliding rails

support the weight of the device.

DO NOT lift or attempt to support the weight of the Vess A3340s/A3340d using the

handles on the ear brackets.

Cautions

Do not lift or move the Vess A3340s/A3340d unit

by the handles on the ear brackets in front.

Attach each ear bracket at the front, on each side of the device housing, and secure with the screws

included with the shipment. The handle should protrude in the direction of the front of the device.
