Question   My Network Recorder program will not open and gives an message saying " # defined active channels. Key allows for # channels." - why? Answer   To get back into the Network Recorder you will have to delete a file and then reprogram the NR with the multicast addresses. This will reset the Network Recorder Multicast Table to factory defaults and will also enable you to run the program with a lower line Network Recorder key. After completing these steps you will need to reprogram the Multicast addresses of your IP-223’s that you want it to record: To reset the Multicast addresses in the Network Recorder, delete the file recordIP.telex  located at C:\Program Files\Telex Communications\Telex Network Recorder\DataFiles\ Reboot the Network Recorder and now you should be able to program the NR with the multicast addresses and then the NR program will run.             © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.

Question   I'm getting "MYSQL server has gone away." message when using Telex Database Reviewer program, why?   Answer   Here's some information on that particular error message.  http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/gone-away.html We believe that the server has closed the connection to the Network Recorder due to eight hours of inactivity. Let's try increasing that variable to its maximum value. 1. In notepad, open my.ini  located at  E:\MySQL Server 5.0   or at C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0 2. Add a line somewhere under the [mysqld] header with the following text: wait_timeout=2147483 3. Restart the mysql service using Computer Management's Service list. 4. If you wish to verify that the value was set properly, open a command prompt and navigate to      E:\MySQL Server 5.0/bin. Run the following command:     mysqladmin.exe variables      You should see a long list of variables, including wait_timeout. It should have the newly set value.                     © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.
