ConnecttotheNVR
There are various ways you can connect to the NVR and below are
the suggested methods for different network setup:
• The NVR is placed in a network with a DHCP server: Connect to
the NVR by using “SEEnergyDeviceSearch”Utility
• The NVR is placed in a network without DHCP server (or you are
connecting to it directly): AccesstheNVRwithitsdefaultIP
UseSEEnergyDeviceSearchUtility
If the NVR is placed in a corporate network or a local area network
where a DHCP server is already presented, run the “SEEnergy Device
Search” utility from a computer that is on the same network and
locate the NVR with its IP address that is assigned by the top-level
DHCP server.
To begin, launch the “SEEnergy Deivce Search” utility from the CD
and proceed with the installation:

The NVR comes with a pre-congured static IP “192.168.101.50”.
However, it is only used when there is no DHCP server presented in
the network. The NVR will turn on its DHCP server function and act
as the DHCP server in the network. To connect to the NVR, use a PC
that is on the same network over a switch or hub, or connect the PC
directly to the NVR using a crossover CAT5 Ethernet cable.
The PC that is connected directly to the NVR (or within the same local
area network) should receive an IP from the NVR. Simply access the
NVR from your web browser with its IP address
Again, you should be prompted for the username and password. En-
ter its default username “admin” and password “admin” and then
click”OK” to enter the system

RecordingCongurations
General Settings
The “recording congurations” gives users the overall control of how
and when a recording is performed and the quality of different types
of recordings performed on each channels. It can help the recorder to
operate with sufcient system resource by performing recording only
when it’s necessary with adjustable recording frame rate.
You can dene the following in “General Settings”:
• Pre-Alarm/Post-Alarm recording length
• Recording frame rate
• Enable/disable different recording types on different cameras
• Enable/disable audio recording
The “recording buffer” allows user to dene “pre-alarm” and “post-
alarm” time for event recordings. The “pre-alarm” time sets the NVR
to record in advance when an event is triggered. The “post-alarm”
time sets the NVR to continue recording for a period of time after an
event trigger is nished.
*The“Pre-alarm”functiononly
works when the “Continueous”
recordingisalsoactivated.
