The following operations are common to each
screen following login.
■ Logging off
Click [Log Off] in the [File] menu.
The login screen is returned to.
■ Closing the screen
Click the button in the top right corner of
the screen.
Alternatively, click [Close] in the [File] menu (the
[Close] button on the login screen).
This operation closes the screen and stores the

When Windows’ firewall protection or some
other firewall program is active on your
computer, the computer is blocked from
communicating with the cameras and thus the
system fails to operate correctly. This means
that you must disable the firewall protection
before you begin using the VA-SW3050Lite
software.
MEMO:
Note that, if you are using Windows XP SP2 or
Windows Vista, its firewall protection is enabled
by default. When the VA-SW3050Lite searches
for cameras after startup, the dialog confirming
the firewall setting appears. In this dialog, click
[Unblock] to allow the connection to the
camera.

The VA-SW3050Lite software allows you to
establish bi-directional voice communications
between a camera and PC.
<Camera → PC>
You can view live video image with voice
because the voice picked up by the microphone
on the camera side is output to the PC speakers.
<PC → Camera>
You may talk to the camera side because the
voice picked up by the microphone on the PC
side is output to the camera speakers.
Make sure the following preparations are
completed before operating the tool bar buttons
for establishing voice communication.
1 A microphone and speakers are respectively
connected on the voice transmission and
output sides (refer to page 2 of the installation
manual).
2 Select the [Audio] check box on the [Normal
Recording & Live Setting (JPEG)] screen to
enable the voice communication (see page
23-2).
3 The voice settings on the camera side are
configured on the [Audio Setting] screen
(see page 27).
Note:
• To configure the voice settings, both the
camera and the option board must support
the voice communication feature.
• Only one user can transmit voice to one
camera at a time.
Priority is given to the user who transmits
voice most lately when multiple users
transmit voice simultaneously.
• If the voice output from the camera speakers
is low, set “Microphone Boost” to the PC
microphone from the Control Panel of the PC.
