1.2 IR Remote Control Operations
The device may also be controlled with the included IR remote control, shown in Figure 1-2.
Batteries (2&times;AAA) must be installed before operation.
The IR remote is set at the factory to control the device (using default Device ID# 255) without any
additional steps. Device ID# 255 is the default universal device identification number shared by the
devices. You may also pair an IR Remote to a specific device by changing the Device ID#, as follows:
Pairing (Enabling) the IR Remote to a Specific Device (optional)
You can pair an IR Remote to a specific device by creating a user-defined Device ID#. This feature is
useful when using multiple IR Remotes and devices.
On the device:
Step 1 Go to System &gt; General.
Step 2 Type a number (255 digits maximum) into the Device No. field.
ENVR208
On the IR Remote:
Step 3 Press the DEV button.
Step 4 Use the Number buttons to enter the Device ID# that was entered into the device.
Step 5 Press Enter button to accept the new Device ID#.

Unpairing (Disabling) an IR Remote from a Device
To unpair an IR Remote from a device so that the unit cannot control any device functions, proceed
as follows:
Press the DEV key on the IR Remote. Any existing Device ID# will be erased from the unit’s memory
and it will no longer function with the device.
(Re)-enabling the IR Remote requires pairing to a device. See “Pairing the IR Remote to a Specific
device (optional),” above.
The keys on the remote control closely resemble the ones on the front panel.

Troubleshooting Remote Control:
Make sure you have installed batteries properly in the remote control. And you have to aim the
remote control at the IR receiver in the front panel.
If there is no response after you press any button on the remote, follow the procedure below to
troubleshoot.
Step 1 Go to System &gt; General by operating the front control panel or the mouse.
Step 2 Check and remember device ID#. The default ID# is 255. This ID# is valid for all the IR remote
controls.
Step 3 Press the DEV button on the remote control.
Step 4 Enter the device ID# you set in step 2.
Step 5 Press the ENTER button on the remote.
If the Status indicator on the front panel turns blue, the remote control is operating properly. If
the Status indicator does not turn blue and there is still no response from the remote, please
check the following:
ENVR208
⚫
Batteries are installed correctly and the polarities of the batteries are not reversed.
⚫
Batteries are fresh and not out of charge.
⚫
IR receiver is not obstructed.
⚫
No fluorescent lamp is used nearby
If the remote still can’t function properly, please change a remote and try again, or contact the
device provider.

1.3 USB Mouse Operation
A regular 3-button (Left/Right/Scroll-wheel) USB mouse can also be used with this device. To use a
USB mouse:
Step 1 Plug USB mouse into one of the USB interfaces on the front panel of the device.
Step 2 The mouse should automatically be detected. If in a rare case that the mouse is not
detected, the possible reason may be that the two devices are not compatible, please refer

7.3 Recording Parameters
7.3.1 Main Stream
The Main Stream refers to the primary stream that affects data recorded to the hard disk drive and
will directly determine your recording quality and image size.
Comparing with the sub-stream, the main stream can provide a higher quality video with higher
resolution and frame rate.
Frame Rate (FPS - Frames Per Second): refers to how many frames are captured each second. A
higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains
image quality throughout.
Resolution: Image resolution is a measure of how much detail a digital image can hold: the greater
the resolution, the greater the level of detail. Resolution can be specified as the number of pixelcolumns (width) by the number of pixel-rows (height), e.g.,1024&times;768.
Bitrate: The bit rate (in kbit/s or Mbit/s) is often referred to as speed, but actually defines the
number of bits/time unit and not distance/time unit.
Enable H.264+ Mode: The H.264+ mode helps to ensure the high video quality with a lowered
bitrate. It can effectively reduces the need of bandwith and HDD storage space.
A higher resolution, frame rate and bitrate setting will provide you the better video quality, but it
will also require more internet bandwidth and use more storage space on the hard disk drive.
7.3.2 Sub-Stream
The sub-stream is a second codec that runs alongside the mainstream. It allows you to reduce the
outgoing internet bandwidth without sacrificing your direct recording quality.
The sub-stream is often exclusively used by smartphone applications to view live video. Users with
limited internet speeds may benefit most from this setting.
ENVR208
7.3.3 Picture
The picture refers to the live picture capture in continuous or event recording type.
Picture Quality: set the picture quality to low, medium or high. The higher picture quality results
in more storage space requirement.
Interval: the interval of capturing live picture.
7.3.4 ANR
ANR (Automatic Network Replenishment) function which enables the IP camera to save the
recording files in the local storage when the network is disconnected, and when the network is
resumed, it uploads the files to the device.
Enable the ANR (Automatic Network Replenishment) function via the web browser
(Configuration &gt; Storage &gt; Schedule Settings &gt; Advanced).
7.3.5 Configure Advanced Recording Settings
Step 1 Go to Storage &gt; Schedule Settings &gt; Record Schedule/Capture Schedule.
Step 2 Check the checkbox of Enable to enable scheduled recording.
Step 3 Click Advanced to set the recording parameters.
Figure 7-8 Advanced Record Settings
Record Audio: Check the checkbox to enable or disable audio recording.
Pre-record: The time you set to record before the scheduled time or event. For example, when
an alarm triggers the recording at 10:00, and if you set the pre-record time as 5 seconds, the
camera records at 9:59:55.
Post-record: The time you set to record after the event or the scheduled time. For example,
when an alarm triggered recording ends at 11:00, and if you set the post-record time as 5
seconds, it records till 11:00:05.
ENVR208
Expired Time: The expired time is period for a recorded file to be kept in the HDD. When the
deadline is reached, the file will be deleted. If you set the expired time to 0, the file will not be
deleted. The actual keeping time for the file should be determined by the capacity of the HDD.
Redundant Record/Capture: By enabling redundant record or capture you save the record and
captured picture in the redundant HDD. See Chapter Configure Redundant Recording and
Capture.
Stream Type: Main stream and sub-stream are selectable for recording. When you select substream, you can record for a longer time with the same storage space.

Chapter 8 Disk Array
Purpose:
Disk array is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical disk drive
components into a single logical unit. An array stores data over multiple HDDs to provide enough
redundancy so that data can be recovered if one disk fails. Data is distributed across the drives in
one of several ways called &quot;RAID levels&quot;, depending on what level of redundancy and performance
is required.
The array is supported by DS-9600NI-I series device only.
8.1 Create Disk Array
