Network
HOST NAME – Hostname for the DVR on the network.

DHCP (System gets IP address automatically from a DHCP server.)
IP ADDRESS – DHCP or Static. Contact your network administrator for this information.
CLIENT CONFIGURATION – Set up the connection ports and Max transfer speed for remote connections.
CENTER PORT – The E-Series DVR uses the Center port and the primary communication port to create remote connections. This port must be the same as the port setting on the remote PC.
VIDEO PORT – The E-Series DVR uses multiple ports to create remote connections: the remote port is user defined (default 2000), and a secondary port is automatically assigned (default 2002). The
DVR assigns the secondary port based on the remote port, in increments of two. (ex: if you set the remote port to 2222, then the secondary port will be 2224). Verify that all these ports are available when setting up Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewall.
WEB PORT – Defines the port that Internet Explorer uses to connect over the web and view video. If this port is changed then the new port must be defined when attempting to web connect (ex: if your DVR IP address is 10.0.0.5 and you change the web port to 800, then you must type http://10.0.0.5:800 in your browser).
MAX TRANSFER SPEED – Set network bandwidth. This feature is used for slower internet connections to throttle the amount of data the
DVR sends across the network at a time.

DDNS - DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service) is a service that allows a connection to an
IP address using a hostname (URL) address instead of a numeric IP address. Most Internet
Service Providers use Dynamic IP Addressing that frequently changes the public IP address of your internet connection; this means that remote connections through RADIUS and
Remote would require frequent updates. DDNS automatically redirects traffic to your current
IP address when using the hostname address (i.e. MyE240.openeyedvr.com).
DDNS SERVER – The current DDNS server.
HOST NAME – Hostname for the DDNS server account.

This function is unique to the DVR and its verification software and should not interfere with viewing the files using other applications.
JPG

JPG images are 24-bit (16.7 million color) graphics. JPG is used to export a single image or frame.
