INFO: How to unlock an option to configured Arecont Vision cameras to be accessed via TFTP protocol

Filed under: Fixes, How To — Tags: , , , , , — roman @ 2:00 am

The information applies to:

  • LuxRiot 1.7.1

Summary

This post describes required steps to unlock TFTP protocol communication between LuxRiot DVR software and Arecont Vision cameras. As TFTP protocol based communication is deprecated, and HTTP protocol based is the default and the only available option starting LuxRiot DVR versiom 1.7.1, a fallback to TFTP protocol is available through manual edit of system registry.

Description

To be able to configure Arecont Vision camera to be accessed using TFTP protocol and through Arecont Vision SDK, it is required to add the following system registry value. This can be fulfilled using one of the two following ways:

  1. Download arecont-tftp archive, open/extract and contained Registration Entries file (.REG), double click it so that Registry Editor prompts merge the contained entires with the registry and confirm the merge
  2. Alternatively, start Registry Editor (regedit.exe) manually from run prompt (Start Menu, Run…; or Win+R), locate the key (create if needed) “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\A&H\LuxRiot\Client” and under this key create a DWORD/REG_DWORD value named “Show DVRServerNetworkCamerasArecont Component Dynamic Leaps” and give it the value of 2.

Restart client application and under Camera Setup Wizard it should starting showing an additional option, as shown on the screenshot below:

This option allows an Arecont Vision camera to be added to LuxRiot DVR so that the camera is accessed using TFTP protocol.

It is also advised to ensure that LuxRiot DVR is of the latest version, and so are the versions of cameras’ firmware.
