2 NVR Installation & Connection
2.1 HDD Installation
The system may not include hard disk depending on the kit you selected. The NVR works with most 3.5”
or 2.5” SATA HDD.
CAUTION: DO NOT install or remove the hard disk drive while the device power is turned ON.
When power supply is disconnected, remove
the screws at both sides with screwdriver,
then remove the screws on the rear board,
and then remove top cover of NVR.
Connect data and power ports of hard drive
to motherboard.
Holding the hard drive and the NVR, gently
turn it over and line up the holes on the hard
drive with the holes on the NVR. Using a
screwdriver, screw the provided screws into
the holes. Two groups of screw mounting
holes are provided in the base frame of the
NVR, respectively for installation of 3.5” hard
drive and 2.5” hard drive. User should make

4.1 Start Wizard
Click the Start Wizard to proceed to the next step
4.1.1 Start Wizard
4.1.2 Network Configuration
If you connect to a router allows to use DHCP, please check the DHCP box. The router will assign
automatically all the network parameters for your NVR. Unless the network is manually addressed below
parameters:
IP Address: The IP address identifies the NVR in the network. It consists of four groups of numbers
between 0 to 255, separated by periods. For example, “192.168.001.100”.
Subnet Mask: Subnet mask is a network parameter which defines a range of IP addresses that can be
used in a network. If IP address is like a street where you live then subnet mask is like a neighborhood.
The subnet address also consists of four groups of numbers, separated by periods. For example,
“255.255.000.000”.
Gateway: This address allows the NVR to access the Internet. The format of the Gateway address is the
same as the IP Address. For example, “192.168.001.001”.
DNS1/DNS2: DNS1 is the primary DNS server and DNS2 is a backup DNS server. Usually should be
enough just to enter the DNS1 server address.
11

Check the “NTP” box, and select the NTP server.
Port
Web Port: This is the port that you will use to log in remotely to the NVR (e.g. using the Web Client). If the
default port 80 is already taken by other applications, please change it.
Client Port: This is the port that the NVR will use to send information through (e.g. using the mobile app).
If the default port 9000 is already taken by other applications, please change it.
RTSP Port: This is the port that the NVR will be allowed to transmit real-time streaming to other device
(e.g. using a streaming Media player.).
UPNP: If you want to log in remotely to the NVR using Web Client, you need to complete the port
forwarding in your router. Enable this option if your router supports the UPnP. In this case, you do not
need to configure manually port forwarding on your router. If your router does not support UPnP, make
sure the port forwarding is completed manually in your router.
