Reference10:Voice Recorder/Setup
The recorder has to “know” basically 3 things: where are the recordings (pcap files), where the reporting tool is and where the results should be stored.
The setup is stored in the directory where the recorder is running; therefore more recorders can be started on one single system using different directories. Please note that the setup file is a XML file but AES crypt, so not readable.
In the headline of the setup the version is displayed, note that the version can be displayed also in the recorder main menu clicking on the innovaphone logo.
Start in Taskbar
If checked the recorder will start minimized. Because the recorder has a complete user interface this software is not designed to run as a service. For automatic start-up include the .exe in the auto-start folder.
Write all operations in logfile
Do not confuse the logfile with the error logfile, the error log is written in any case and named iREC_Error_Log. This logfile is called iRECsys_Log.txt and contains all operational tasks like copy of file, converting ecc., not just events like startup or errors. This flag should be switched on just in special situation for example during installation of a new system or in case of error searching, because this file becomes very huge and there is no automatic limitation foreseen.
Recorder Name
This Name is displayed on the headline of the main menu and also reported in the start- up message log file. It is just an optional and has no further function; it can also be leaved blank.
Password
Password of this setup, if blank no password is asked to access to this setup. Please note that this password is also the default password for the player and can therefore be an important security feature.
GROUP PCAP
The setup parameter in this panel allows this recording software retrieve the .pcap files. These files can be located on the Compact flash or on a webdav server. Both cases are supported; please note that storing voce on a CF means low performance and additional workload for the PBX-CPU in case of file copy.
Map Network Drive
A virtual drive should be mapped, typical letters are for example “K:” or “H:”. Indicate the letter including the “:”. Once started you will see in the explorer the network drive, if terminated correctly the network drive will be removed and is no longer visible in the explorer.
Detect automatically
If checked a free drive letter is detected automatically and assigned.
Search Path
This field must be blank in case of a CF, in case of a network access to a drive (webdav server) indicate the root or also the complete path (using or not the “Path PCAP” field). Observe that the IP Address is ignored if this field is not empty.
IP address
Enter the IP address in case of using a CF on a Gateway.
User/Password
Enter the credential to access to the CF. If using a webdav server the PC where this application is running must have access to the relative directory without credential from the application.
HTTPS
Check if the CF is using HTTPS
Path PCAP
Enter the missing path data to access the directory.
Try to find PCAP files
This info panel shows you in real time the resulting path in function of your setup inputs. The path indicated here is the one the software uses to reach the pcap files.
GROUP REPORTING
The setup parameter in this panel allows this recording software connect the reporting toll and retrieve the CDR records. The Reporting can run on a gateway or VMware (player or native), there is no difference for this setup.
IP address
Enter the IP address of the device where the reporting is running. If you run the reporting on a PC enter the IP address indicated on the VMware virtual machine. If it is not visible enter “ifconfig” in the VMware panel, the address is shown under inet addr. Remember that the address is never 127.0.0.1 (even if the reporting is running on the same PC).
User/Password
Enter the credential to access to the reporting, default is “reporting” and “linux”.
HTTPS
Check if the reporting is using HTTPS
Path Reporting
Enter the path to the main screen of the reporting, tipical (and default) is “/apps/innovaphone-reporting/report.php”.
Try to reach reporting
This info panel shows you in real time the resulting path in function of your setup inputs. The path indicated here is the one the software uses to reach reporting, if you enter this path in an explorer you should see the main menu of the reporting.
GROUP STORAGE
The setup parameter in this panel defines where the voice records are stored. While the Root storage Path is mandatory the backup path is a option.
Set Root storage path
The path indicated in this option is the working directory where the files after retrieving, naming and converting are written. It is also the directory where the player will look and search for files.
If you click the “Set” button a directory dialog box appear, select the directory where you want store the voice records and confirm. You can edit the path even manually, not recommended.
Set Backup path
This path is optional; if blank the feature is off.
If you click the “Set” button a directory dialog box appear, select the directory where you want store a backup of the voice records and confirm. You can edit the path even manually, not recommended.
Note that files stored in the backup directory are not visible for the player and even the automatic delete is not active. The indicated directory is typically on a NAS or SAN system.
Delete records after moth
The indicated number of month is the maximum storage depth. The minimum is 2 (so the actual and the last month will always be available), indicating 99 disable the feature. Deleted files cannot be recovered, the name of the deleted files are reported in the syslog.
Note that file in the backup path will never be touched.
Swap incoming/outgoing
What “incoming” or “outgoing” is depends on the point of view. If clicked “in” and “out” (“i”, “o”) are simply swapped.
Save and exit
The setup is saved, like on a start-up a health check is done (looking if the setup sound reasonable, check of the I/O devices) and the timer are armed.
Exit (no save)
Same like Save and exit without saving setups.
