CHAP. 6 Network Setup

6-1. DVR Network Configuration

Now that you are familiar with the equipment and should be able to identify a router from a modem and a

Cat5 network cable from a telephone cable, we will proceed to determine the network scenario that fits your current network.

Please call your provider to identify what type of service they are providing you. You will need to know following ;

Upload speed – For your own knowledge for expected frame rates

Download speed – For your own knowledge for expected frame rates

Addressing – For determining what scenario you should follow

Router On Site or Just a Modem – For determining what scenario you should follow

? NOTE : If your provider is using PPPoE (usually DSL providers), you MUST have a router installed on site and follow CASE C for DVR setup and access.

? PLEASE verify Internet access after installing any new equipment (routers, switches, modems, etc.).

If possible, use a PC on the network to verify that an Internet connection can be made and that all current configurations on any equipment are up and working properly. Do this before doing ANY configurations with the DVR. We are assuming that your current equipment is configured properly for

Internet access.

PC’s TCP/IP Setting

Before configuring the DVR, please fill out the information below if applicable ;

Choose any PC on your network and determine its TCP/IP settings;

IP Address :

Subnet Mask :

(ex.192.168.1.5)

(ex. 255.255.255.0)

Default Gateway : (ex.192.168.1.1)

* For information on how to determine this information, please consult the FAQ page.

Next pages are several network scenarios. Each one is labeled with a letter. Please identify which scenario your current network falls within and follow the instructions for configuring and accessing your DVR via TCP/IP.

The box below represents an area that you can’t control. If you are unable or do not have access to your router for port forwarding. Please contact your provider and request them to forward a port to the corresponding DVR IP address :

Configure the DVR as follows :

1. Set the DVR to MANUAL for the TCP/IP settings. Do not use DHCP SETUP for this application or verify that DHCP SETUP is set to MANUAL.

2. IP ADDRESS : assign it a private IP address (ex : 192.168.0.105) a. You need to assign the DVR an IP address just as you would a PC.

b. The IP address you assign must be unique to your local network as well as “match” your local network. For information on how to choose a unique IP that matches your network, consult the FAQ.

c. The IP address you assign must be a private IP address. For information on what a private IP address is, consult the FAQ.

d. When configuring the DVR’s IP address information, the version of firmware within the units may display the IP addresses differently. For simplicity sake,

192.168.1.105 may have to be configured as 192.168.001.105

3. PORT NUMBER : 50000 a. 4 channel, 8 channel & 16 channel : This number is stated explicitly.

b. For most situations, please use the default 50000 for simplicity.

2. Port : 50000(this has to match what is configured in the router and in the DVR)

3. User ID : (always leave the default “ admin “)

4. Password : this must match what is configured in the DVR a) 4,8,16 channel default : Blank (NO PASSWORD)

33


Stand-alone DVR


REMOTELY :

To access the DVR remotely, that is from outside your local network, follow the above directions for accessing locally, except for the IP address. For CASE A, you have received a static IP from your Internet provider. That static IP address is what you must enter into the software for connectivity to take place (NOT the IP of the DVR). Contact your provider if you have misplaced the forms stating your static IP address. Since you are accessing the DVR via a router, you must enter the router’s WAN IP address which is the exactly the same as the static IP that you have received from your Internet provider.

Case B : Single Static IP Directly Connected to the DVR

Internet

(ISP)

Phone line

Or CATV

Modem

2. IP ADDRESS : assign it a public IP address (ex : 24.106.1.195) a. You need to assign the DVR an IP address just as you would a PC.

b. The static IP address that you received from your Internet provider is the address that you will assign this DVR, if you do not know this IP address please contact your provider.

c. When configuring the DVR’s IP address information, the version of firmware within the units may display the IP addresses differently. For simplicity sake,




4. SUBNET MASK : 255.255.255.240 (example) a. Along with your static IP address you should have received your subnet mask from your Internet provider. Please use that subnet mask when configuring the DVR. If you did not receive this information contact your service provider.

5. GATEWAY : 24.106.1.193(example) a. Along with your static IP address you should have received your gateway or default gateway from your Internet provider. Please use that gateway when configuring the

DVR. If you did not receive this information contact your service provider.



Accessing the DVR using the Remote Software for CASE B

LOCALLY :

You cannot physically access the unit locally since a router was not used in this case.

REMOTELY :

To access the DVR remotely, that is from outside your local network, follow the above directions for accessing locally, except for the IP address. For CASE C, you have received a dynamic or PPPoE IP from your Internet provider. That static IP address is what you must enter into the software for connectivity to take place (NOT the IP of the DVR). You may be able to contact your provider to determine your current IP address. You can also try accessing your router and locating the status page that should list the WAN or Internet IP address. Since you are accessing the DVR via a router, you must enter the router’s WAN IP address which is the exactly the same as the IP that you have dynamically received from your Internet provider. Take into consideration that this scenario is not recommended, due to the nature of dynamic addressing. Dynamic address may change randomly or on power failures. If you are unable to connect suddenly, first verify that your dynamic IP address has not changed.

F A Q


How do I determine my PC’s TCP/IP settings?

For Window 98 / Me Users

1. Click on the Start Menu, select RUN

2. Type ‘winipcfg’ (without the quotes), hit Enter

3. Use the drop down list to select your 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter(not the PPP adapter)

4. Now you will see your IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway information

For Window 2000 / XP

1. Click on the Start Menu, select RUN

2. Type ‘cmd’ (without the quotes), hit Enter

3. The command prompt will appear. At the prompt type – “ipconfig”(without the quotes)

4. This will list your current IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.

How do I choose a unique IP that matches my network?

For your home or small office, ensure that all devices on your network are running. Chose an IP address that you wish to assign the DVR. To ensure the IP address that you will assign the DVR matches your network, review the “PC’s TCP/IP settings” that you had recorded earlier. See some examples below.”

- If your “IP Address” entry in “PC’s TCP/IP Settings” was 192.168.0.y and your “Subnet Mask” was

255.255.255.0 then use 192.168.0.x for your DVR’s IP Address (“x” meaning any number between

2-254 that you wish, as long as it passes the “PING” test).

- If your “IP Address” entry in “ PC’s TCP/IP Settings” was 192.168.1.y and your “Subnet Mask” was

255.255.255.0 then use 192.168.1.x for your DVR’s IP Address (“x” meaning any number between

2-254 that you wish, as long as it passes the “PING” test).

After choosing an appropriate IP address, ‘PING’ the IP address that you plan to assign to the DVR.

If you receive a “Request timed out”, then you may use that IP address (the PING test has passed).

* If your “IP Address” entry under “PC’s TCP/IP Settings” is not a 192.168.z.y address with a

“Subnet Mask” of 255.255.255.0 then please contact our Support Center.

** If your “IP Address” entry under “PC’s TCP/IP Settings” is not a 192.168.z.y address, please contact our Support Center.

How do I “PING” an IP address ?

1. Open an MS-DOS (or Command) prompt.

2. At the prompt type – “ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” (without the quotes and replace the x’s with an IP address)

3. Press Enter

46


Stand-alone DVR


How do I “ PING” an IP address ?

1. Open an MS-DOS (or Command) prompt

2. At the prompt type – “ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” (without the quotes and replace the x’s with an

IP address)

3. Press Enter

Ping Result. When testing for a usable IP address, verify that you get a “Request timed out” message. This ensures that the IP address that you have tested is not being used by another device on your network.

How do I open an MS-DOS or Command Prompt ?

Windows 98/Me : Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> MS-DOS prompt

Windows 2000/XP : Start -> (All) Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt

47


Stand-alone DVR


How do I choose a private IP address : Below lists the ranges for private addresses.

Private Class A address space : 10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255

Private Class B address space : 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255

Private Class C address space : 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255

For most cases you will choose a private IP address that falls in the Class C address space.

(ex. 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x)

How do I forward a port in my router?

For cases A&C you must forward a TCP port through your router. This port is the Port Number specified in the DVR. For most cases you should be able to leave the default at 50000.

Every router has a different procedure for forwarding ports. Please consult your router’s user guide on how to correctly configure Port Forwarding.

Can I configure my DVMR for remote access using a Dial-Up connection?

Yes, it is possible, but not recommended. With a live video feed, the bandwidth that a dial-up connection provides is very poor. In addition, you will have to install a device that allows your

DVR to connect directly to your dial-up phone line (roughly $200).

Why is my remote video jerky?

The frame rates received via the Internet are all dependent on your connection condition and speed at both the DVR site and the location from where you are accessing the DVR. The fastest frame rates are achieved locally.

Important Notes Regarding the Remote Viewer and the DVR

When you are in SCAN MODE and are playing back data, you are actually accessing the DVR remotely and placing the unit itself in playback mode, which enables DVR to record the images.

When selecting a date/time to play back. First, ensure that the stop button has been pressed

(screen should have no images displayed). Next, select the date you wish to view and verify that it is a valid date on the hard drive and that the selected data is outlined with the box filled in.

Then, select the time you wish to access for that particular date. Finally, hit the single-arrow play or double-arrow play button.

To see continuous live view, we recommend NOT setting the DVR for motion detection. The remote viewer only sends images when there is motion and this motion is not fluid. The remote

SCAN MODE option still operates as normal. We recommend only using the remote playback feature if you set the DVR for Continuous Record.

The DVR still records images in the remote scan mode, but recording rates drop by a small amount.

Therefore, we recommend remote access to DVR for Scan when needed.

The remote viewer is only compatible with Windows operating systems.

If the connection is lost during remote playback, exit SCAN MODE, reconnect to the live view, then re-enter SCAN MODE.
