Other than the local client, the remote PC client may access the ENR system simultaneously, and experiences user-friendly web interface customized for browser-based operations.
ENR Server / Client Architecture
In a video surveillance system architecture, ENR Server serves as a video management service provider, aimed to run 24/7 non-stop service for clients. An ENR Client makes requests of monitoring video streams or playing back recordings to ENR Server.
There are two types of ENR Clients: Local Client and Remote Client. A client, connecting from whether a remote computer or from local, will be offered the same accessibilities of ENR functions.
Local Client: In local camera site, the client user directly operates ENR Server by connecting the physical device to an HDMI monitor and a USB mouse.
Remote Client: Over the TCP/IP network, the Remote Client communicates with ENR
Server through HTTP Protocol. This client user will have to use a computer with Internet
Explorer to access the ENR Server web interface, without the need of installing any client program beforehand. Logging in ENR Server is as simple as visiting a website.

Network Connection Architecture
When connecting ENR with your network, please make sure you plug the network cable into the right port.
LAN 1 Port (Camera Port)
Default:
192.168.0.10
LAN 2 Port (WAN Port)
Default:
Dynamic /192.168.1.10
LAN 1 Port
LAN 1 port is the default camera port for a typical local network. Via this port, the DHCP server built in ENR automatically assigns IP addresses to network cameras once they are connected. With this feature, you do not have to bother arranging the camera IP addresses on your own. By default, this DHCP server is enabled, so please avoid connecting ENR to a network where exits another DHCP server via this port.
Connection Setting Example 1
Below diagram displays an example connection setting using only LAN1 to connect networks cameras.
In this setting, ENR altogether with cameras are within the same network segment; in the mean time, there is no need of referencing outside DHCP server in this system.
LAN 1: 192.168.0.10
192.168.0.101 ~ 192.168.0.104
ENR-1100 System Administrator’s Manual
LAN 2 Port
LAN2 port is a typical Ethernet port. You will have to use this port to connect with a different network segment when your system requires (1) the connection with a remote PC client or network cameras, (2) the use of event-triggered Email service via external SMTP server (3) the use of date/time synchronization with external NTP server.
By default, once connecting to a network, it will first try to get an IP address assigned by your network router from DHCP server. If your network does not assign IP address automatically, then LAN2 port will assume IP address 192.168.1.10. Please note that every time you connect a network via LAN2, you have to REBOOT ENR to refresh the IP addresses.
Connection Setting Example 2
Below diagram displays an example connection setting using LAN1 + LAN2 to connect networks cameras within different network segments.
In this setting, ENR with three cameras are within the same network segment, while there is another camera locating in another network. In addition, this system requires the connection with an external SMTP server and a remote client.
LAN 2: DHCP client
(ex:172.16.26.100)
SMTP Server
Remote PC Client
LAN 1: 192.168.0.10

Disk Management
ENR keeps the recordings on SATA hard disks installed in it. Whenever recording is taking place, ENR writes data to one of the disks, and switch to the other as the original one is full.
Once the available space of the whole system is less than the reserved size, ENR will start deleting the oldest file to make the amount of space allowing each active channel to record for another 10 minutes.
You may observe the disk memory and recording status on Storage page.
On Live screen, click Setup click Maintenance tab click “Storage”. The connected storage devices will be shown in the Storage Device list. Select a storage device to check its Storage Information appearing as below.
Storage Device Types
●SATA1 represents the disk installed in upper bay for saving recordings.
●SATA2 represents the disk installed in lower bay for saving recordings.
●Storage Media represents the connected USB disk that you use for carrying firmware image file, backup file, exported system log file, snapshots or video.
ENR-1100 System Administrator’s Manual
Format Hard Disks
You may execute disk formatting toward a newly-installed disk. You should follow the
installation procedures ( refer to Install the Hard Disks on page 17 ) to format the disks
before ENR system start carrying out the surveillance task, for a disk that is not in ENR file system format is not ready for recording.
After the disk is installed and detected in Storage Device list, select it and click “Format”.
During normal operation, please DON NOT REMOVE ANY DISK FROM THE DEVICE, or it might cause damage to the disks. You can only remove or install a disk when the device is shut down.
If you have to format a disk having been recording for a while, it is suggested that you export important video and system log in advance.
Please note that the system will stop recording during the disk formation.
ENR-1100 System Administrator’s Manual
Schedule Recordings
Unlike the traditional analog surveillance system, the IP surveillance system provides a target-oriented recording schedule for devices; the view of each device can be recorded based on your required time segments and event types. For example, you may have a camera installed on the office ceiling do continuous recording during work hours, and record only upon the triggers (incidents that detected by system) at night. In this way, the system does not waste disk space storing meaningless parts, and you save lots of effort browsing playback for specific events.
For the recording schedule, ENR supports Schedule recording, Event recording and
Event Speed-up Recording modes, which are set up on a week-based timetable; the event-handling schedule is configured here.
On ENR, you can configure camera
’s recording schedule on 7 days / 24 hours basis. The schedule is split into segments of one-hour-length. By default, once a device is added to the system, its schedule is automatically set to full-time schedule recording and event handling.
You should configure it according to your system plan. On Live screen Select Setup click
“Schedule” tab and select one channel.
ENR-1100 System Administrator’s Manual
Event-Recording File Length
Before setting the recording schedule, you may define the length of an event recording. To do this, configure the following properties shown as below, which will make an event recording as long as 10+30 second:

Event Management
When something happens on camera site, such as someone walks by, the door opens or a fire breaks out
– these are all Events. The event which occurs in the environment and was pre-programmed in the camera serves as Triggers. Triggers cause the device to react with
Responses. The link between trigger and response is governed by Event Rules. Each event rule detects one specific trigger and may initiate multiple responses. An example rule would be for ENR to send an email to alert the manager (Response 1) and trigger the alarm
(Response 2) when motion on camera site is detected (Trigger) during the event handing active period (Schedule).
Each device can be involved in several event rules. As different camera models possess various capabilities, the supported response types would vary. For example, a PTZ camera can execute a go-to preset point response, while this option is not available for other models without this feature.
Event-Handling Schedule
Event rules become active or inactive based upon a weekly schedule, to enable event-handling service, you will have to make sure the event-handing schedule of certain device is well configured. By default, the event-handling schedule of each camera is enabled for 24 hours once it is added to ENR system.
