fails to recognize a camera, try using

IP Address Scan

instead.

-

IP Address Scan

: Enter the IP address of a camera. The NVR scans for the camera matching the specified address. If you enter IP address's range, the NVR scans for cameras falling under the specified address's range. By specifying an IP address, you can also specify which port to use with the Remote Admin feature. It is recommended that the camera not be networked via DHCP (Dynamic

Host Configuration Protocol). If the camera is networked via DHCP, connection to the camera may not be made properly depending on changes in the external network environment.

Part 2 - Getting Started t

Advanced Setup:

If the camera is networked but not scanned, use this setup. This setup allows you to change the network setting of the NVR's VIDEO IN port which is camera's network environment. Check the camera's network setting first before you use this setup.

Make sure that this setting does not conflict with the WAN setting. For more information on the WAN setting, Refer to

WAN on page 64

Select

DHCP Server Duplication Check...

to check if there is another DHCP server on the same network. If there is no DHCP server, this option is enabled. The NVR allocates an IP address automatically in the range of 10.10.0.128 to 10.10.254.254 by using DHCP to the camera connected to the NVR's VIDEO IN port. On

DHCP

Server

, Video In Network is connected between

NVR and network cameras only, so Gateway does not have any meaning.

Subnet Mask

is

255.255.0.0(Class B).

t

When several NVRs exist in the same network, only one of NVRs has to be run as a DHCP server. If several DHCP servers are running, the redundant IP may be allocated to the camera.

t The range of 10.10.0.1 to 10.10.0.127 is not recommened because NVR system already has the IP address.

Overlapped Recording Search

If the system's clock is changed to a point in the past, overlapping recordings may be produced. Overlapped recordings have to be searched in segments.

For example, making a recording from 1 o'clock to 5 o'clock, changing the system's clock at 5 o'clock to 3 o'clock, and then continuing to record until 6 o'clock produces two recordings that overlap between 3 o'clock and 5 o'clock. This results in two segments for the period between 3 and 5.

Segment 1

1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00 5:00

Segment 2

3:00 4:00 5:00 6:00

When searching overlapped video recordings, you can choose a specific point in time or a time frame. If you use the

Go to the Date/Time

option and select a point within the overlapped time period (

4 o'clock

, for example), you must specify

4 o'clock

in which of the two existing segments.

If you use the


or

Motion Detection

option and select a time frame within the overlapped time period (

4 o'clock to 5 o'clock

, for example), you must choose between the two redundant sets of From and To values. Selectable search ranges are as follows: t 4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 1 t

4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 2 t 4 o'clock in segment 2 to 5 o'clock in segment 2
