WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PROCUCT TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE. DO NOT INSERTANY METALLIC OBJECT THROUGH THE VENTILATION
GRILLS OR OTHER OPENNINGS ON THE EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION
EXPLANATION OF GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert
the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the

(rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.
Height and vertical linearity controls located at the
rear panel are for special adjustments by qualified
personnel only.
Do not install the unit in an extremely hot or
humid place or in a place subject to excessive
dust, mechanical vibration.
The unit is not designed to be waterproof.
Exposure to rain or water may damage the unit.

Chapter 2. Installation
2.1. HDD Installation
Before Installation
We recommend setting the current time on your NVR before HDD Installation.
Please make sure that the power of NVR is switched off before starting installation.
Step 1. Make sure the NVR power is switched OFF
Step 2. Open the top cover of NVR using a cross screw driver.
Step 3. Take out the HDD mounting plate from NVR.
Step 4. Place HDD(s) on the mounting plate and mount it with screws.
Step 5. Replace the mounting plate into the NVR and fix it with screws.
Step 6. Attach the data and power cable to HDD(s) correctly.
Step 7. Replace the top cover of NVR and fix it with screws.
After HDD installation
Step 8. Turn the NVR power ON.
Step 9. NVR will detect HDD(s) during the booting and will format HDD(s).
Step 10. After HDD formatting, NVR will be automatically rebooted and will be ready to work
with HDD(s).
15

2.2. Network Connection Setup
2.2.1. Using a Static IP Address
You can use the Static IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway address provided by your ISP
(Internet Service Provider) for your NVR. The Gateway address is the IP address of your
broadband modem.
2.2.2. Using a Dynamic IP Address
You can use a router with your Dynamic IP broadband modem. In this case, you should set the
configuration of a router properly for network connection between NVR and Net/Web Viewer.
Please follow the instructions in next section to configure your router correctly.
If your Broadband Modem does not support internal loop back (port forwarding) function and you
want to monitor NVR using a PC located in same Intranet, you should use Direct IP instead of
DDVRLS in the connection menu of NetViewer. If your PC is located outside of Intranet, you can
use both DDVRLS and Direct IP to connect to NVR even though your Broadband Modem has
limited features.
Internet
Home/Office Network Internet
16

2.2.3. Router Configuration
If your NVR is connected to the network through a router, you should configure router properly.
There are 3 steps as follows.
1. WAN Setting 2. DHCP Setting 3. Virtual Server Setting
2.2.3.1. WAN Setting
When you connect to your Router, you
can find menu for WAN setting. Please
confirm the WAN setting. If you are using
DSL service, you should select PPPoE,
and you will be directed to a sub-menu to
type in DSL user name and password.
2.2.3.2. DHCP & IP Address Setting
To assign a unique private IP address to
NVR in your intranet environment
automatically, you can enable DHCP
option in the Network Setup menu of your
NVR and your Router. In this case, you
can skip the procedures described on
this page.
We recommend assigning IP address to
NVR manually to prevent unexpected
change of IP address.
*A router from D-Link is quoted as an example in this manual. The images of setup menu above may
not always match another router’s setup menu.
If you have any problem with DHCP function or want to assign the private IP address, please
disable DHCP option in the Network Setup menu of your NVR and check the starting and ending
IP used by DHCP server of the Router. You can assign any private IP address to your NVR
even if it is out of the DHCP range, but the IP address should match with the one entered in
the Network Setup menu of your NVR.
17

2.2.3.3. Virtual Server Setting
You should register your NVR as a virtual server. Please enter the information into IP address
field of the router (e.g. 192.168.0.110).
Protocol Type should be TCP. Private/Public Port numbers should be the same with the Port
numbers assigned in NVR. You can change port numbers in Network Setup menu to avoid conflict
with other network servers.
Your NVR uses 3 port numbers and the default Port numbers are 9350~1 and 80. 9350~1 are
for controlling the video, audio and commands of Net Viewer, and 80 is for Web Viewer. You need to
register 3 port numbers into the router as network servers. Please make sure that your router does
not block those port numbers to/from the NVR with filter and firewall features.
