any questions concerning technical problems please contact our Customer Services.
Important details:
• The use of surveillance cameras in public areas is regulated by theData Protection Act 1998 and requires
thepermission of your local authority. Theuse of camera surveillance on private property is also regulated
by theData Protection Act. Nopermission is required from thelocal authority, but those monitored must be
informed that they are under surveillance. TheInformation Commissioner’s Office has compiled aCode of
Practice governing theuse of security cameras. Forfurther information visit www.ico.gov.uk.
• If you have afirewall / router you must configure your computer router settings and router port settings
(see your router user guide) to enable image display and manoeuvring of theDVR system from acomputer
outside your local area network.
• In order to connect to acomputer on your local area network, you will need to enter theDVR’s IP address
in Internet Explorer’s address field. Ifanexternal display screen is connected, you will be able to see
theaddress under Main menu-System-Network. TheIP address should also be found using therouter’s
software. Therouter will allocate theDVR system anIP address.
