button will then become activated.
•• You will be prompted with an error message if
you do not enter a name for the NVR or enter a
name already registered on the FEN server.
•• Depending on the network environment,
FEN services may not be active and therefore
prevent the NVR from connecting to the

Third Party Scan
Used to manually scan for third-party cameras that
cannot be recognized by the auto scan feature.
Some functions may not be supported for the thirdparty cameras depending on their protocol and model.
You can also register cameras on the remote
program. For more information on the remote camera
registration, refer to Registration on page 13.
●● Protocol: Select the protocol used by the camera (or
video encoder) you wish to search for.
Even if the network device uses a protocol supported
by the NVR, the device itself may not be visible for
scanning and registration by the NVR. For more
information about supported network devices and
models, contact your retailer.
●● Mode: Select the scan mode.
–– Auto Scan (LAN): Lists cameras in a LAN
environment. If Auto Scan (LAN) fails to recognize
a camera, try using IP Address Scan instead.
–– IP Address Scan: Enter the IP address of a
camera. The NVR scans for the camera matching
13
Part 1 - Getting Started
the specified address. If you enter IP address’s
range, the NVR scans for cameras falling under
the specified address’s range. By specifying an IP
address, you can also specify which port to use with
the Remote Admin feature. It is recommended that
the camera not be networked via DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol). If the camera is
networked via DHCP, connection to the camera may
not be made properly depending on changes in the
external network environment.
●● Advanced Setup: If the camera is networked but
not scanned, use this setup. This setup allows you to
change the network setting of the NVR’s VIDEO IN
port which is camera’s network environment. Check
the camera’s network setting first before you use this
setup.
–– DHCP Client: Retrieves an IP address and other
network settings automatically from a DHCP server.
Make sure that this setting does not conflict with
the WAN setting. For more information on the
WAN setting, refer to WAN on page 58.
–– Link-local address: Indicates the default IP
address.
–– DHCP Server: It makes the NVR run as a DHCP
server. Check if there is another DHCP server on
the same network. If there is no DHCP server,
this option is enabled. The NVR allocates an IP
address automatically in the range of 10.10.0.128
to 10.10.254.254 by using DHCP to the camera
connected to the NVR’s VIDEO IN port. On DHCP
Server, Video In Network is connected between
NVR and network cameras only, so Gateway
does not have any meaning. Subnet Mask is
255.255.0.0(Class B).
•• When several NVRs exist in the same network,
only one of NVRs has to be run as a DHCP
server. If several DHCP servers are running, the
redundant IP may be allocated to the camera.
•• The range of 10.10.0.1 to 10.10.0.127 is not
recommened because NVR system already has
the IP addess.
–– Manual: Allows you to enter the IP address and
other network settings manually.

can select Cancel to cancel the process or select Close
to allow the window to run in the background. Selecting
Close does not cancel Clip Copy. Once the process is
complete, you will be prompted with a confirmation
window.
•• One-Touch Clip Copy configures the storage range
automatically based on the storage drive's capacity.
If there is insufficient space available on the selected
storage device, you will only be able to Clip Copy
an amount of data equaling the remaining space
available on the storage device.
•• The NVR displays the volume as 30GB regardless of
the actual disk volume and the maximum size limit
on Clip Copy files is 30GB. Clip Copying a segment
that is more than 2GB in size produces multiple files
that are up to 2GB in size, each.
●● Channels: Specify which channel to save the
recording to.
●● Password: Enable password protection for the saved
video clip and assign a password.
●● Dest.: Select which storage media to use. If NetFS
feature is in use, you can upload video clips to the
registered FTP site.
•• When you clip-copy to the NetFS site, the capacity
of NetFS site and Disk cannot be found.
•• The maximum size limit for clip-copy files is 30 GB.
•• If the video clip is uploaded after you clip-copy, the
video clips will be deleted.
•• If the files are the same files, the video clips cannot
be copied.
File name: Designate a name for the file. The name may
be up to 63 characters in length.
76
•• Clip Copy files can be played back on Windows
systems. For more information, refer to the IDIS
Center operation manual.
•• For USB flash memory devices, the NVR supports the
FAT32 file format only.
Do not disconnect the USB cable or power off the USB
device while USB Clip Copy is in progress. Doing so
can cause the NVR to malfunction or critically damage
the external USB device's file system. You may be
prompted with an error message when trying to back
up on the device. If so, you will need to restart the NVR.
If the USB hard disk's file system has been damaged,
restarting the NVR will not solve the problem and
the aforementioned error message will continue to
be displayed each time you attempt a backup. If this
is the case, you will need to format the HDD or use a
recovery program to repair the damage to the drive's
file system.

Overlapped Recording Search
If the system’s clock is changed to a point in the past,
overlapping recordings may be produced. Overlapped
recordings have to be searched in segments.
For example, making a recording from 1 o’clock to 5
o’clock, changing the system’s clock at 5 o’clock to 3
o’clock, and then continuing to record until 6 o’clock
produces two recordings that overlap between 3 o’clock
and 5 o’clock. This results in two segments for the period
between 3 and 5.
1:00
Segment 1
Segment 2
2:00
3:00
4:00
5:00
3:00
4:00
5:00
6:00
When searching overlapped video recordings, you
can choose a specific point in time or a time frame. If
you use the Go to the Date/Time option and select a
point within the overlapped time period (4 o’clock, for
example), you must specify 4 o’clock in which of the
two existing segments.
●● Record Channel: Select which record channels to
search events in.
●● Recording Fail: Select which channels to search
recording fail events in.
●● Fan Error: Select which channels to search fan error
events.
Selected record channels are searched for events
with at least one linked recording. If no camera is
selected, only the events with no linked recording
camera are searched.
If you use the Event Log Search or Motion Detection
option and select a time frame within the overlapped
time period (4 o’clock to 5 o’clock, for example), you
must choose between the two redundant sets of From
and To values. Selectable search ranges are as follows:
●● 4 o’clock in segment 1 to 5 o’clock in segment 1
●● 4 o’clock in segment 1 to 5 o’clock in segment 2
●● 4 o’clock in segment 2 to 5 o’clock in segment 2
