Network

 Transmit Method

– Frame Rate, Image resolution: Set the transmit speed and resolution of video to be transferred to remote system from the DVR. Transmit speed is the number of images transferred during one second. The higher the transmit speed is, the more images are transferred. For example, 30 means 30 images will be transferred during one second, and 5 means 5 images will be transferred during one second. This is supported for analog cameras only.

– SSL: Using the SSL function enhances the security of outgoing data from the DVR by using the SSL (Secure

Sockets Layer) protocol when connecting to the DVR remotely. When using the SSL function, the DVR cannot be connected with a program or a system that does not support the SSL function. Selecting Standard does not use the SSL protocol for video and audio data, selecting High uses the SSL protocol for all data.

NOTE: The remote setup to the DVR will be released when changing the SSL setting.

NOTE: Using the SSL function might cause congestion in the system receiving data from the DVR depending on the security level.

NOTE: This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit

(http://www.openssl.org/).

NOTE: The FEN function allows you to connect to the DVR from remote sites using either the dynamic IP addresses or the domain name. For the FEN function to work properly, the DVR’s FEN name should be registered on the FEN server, and the FEN server settings should match the settings registered on the FEN server. Any changes on the FEN server might cause improper operation.

NOTE: The FEN registration is limited to only one FEN server. The DVR cannot be registered to multiple FEN servers.

NOTE: When FEN function is enabled, it is not necessary to set up port forwarding manually. However, remote connection to the DVR might not be available depending on the network connection environment of the DVR or remote system when the FEN function is enabled. If it is the case, you should set up port forwarding for the DVR manually in the NAT (Network Address Translation) device to which the DVR is connected.

Appendix 5 — Troubleshooting

Following are some frequent problems and solutions related to the DVR. Read this section before calling the dealer or installer.

Problem: There is no image on the screen.

Solution: Check the camera cables. If the Video Loss image is displayed, something is wrong with the camera cable or power.

Solution: Video might not be displayed on the monitor when connecting a monitor after turning on the system. Reboot the DVR.

Problem: How do I access Windows?

Solution: To protect unnecessary system crashes, Windows is blocked. Ask your dealer or distributor.

Problem: The logo appears and then freezes. Sometimes the screen is black.

Solution: There is a problem with the Main Board. Reboot the DVR. If it happens often, call your dealer or installer.

Problem: The USB-serial converter has been connected to the DVR for the POS installation, however, the dialog box asking the device driver appears.

Solution: When connecting the POS device to the DVR using the USB-serial converter, connect the converter while the DVR is operating. If not, the converter driver may not be operating properly and display the dialog box asking the device driver during the system boot. However, it does not have any effect on the DVR operation. Remove the converter, and reboot the DVR and then connect the converter again.
