The NVR will automatically configure the IP address of a camera connected by LAN if:
 The connected IP camera is our brand’s IP camera.
 The default IP configuration method of the camera is “DHCP”.
 The camera is powered on before the NVR is powered on.
If the NVR doesn’t configure the IP address of your camera automatically as described above, your IP
camera might NOT be:
 Our brand’s IP camera.
 Set to “DHCP” as its default IP configuration method.
To solve this, use our brand’s IP camera, and reconfigure its IP address to 10.1.1.xx (xx ranges from 11 ~
253), in the same network segment as the NVR.
a) Select “ ” on the bottom of the screen, you’ll see the list of every connected IP camera with its connection
status to this NVR and MAC address.
b) Select the IP address which is not used, and select “SETUP”.
