Logging in using Monitor
The next sections will assume you have some familiarity with computers and software. You can login to the NVR locally
using the monitor provided, or remotely using a mobile device app or desktop computer connected to the Internet. We
will first login using the monitor. Once the NVR is powered up the home screen will automatically request you to select
a language.
4) Enter a new password -it must contain the following
characters:
one upper case
one lower case
one number
special character (*, $, # etc.)
1). Choose a language, three are available: French, English
and Chinese
2) When logging in for the first time, enter the
default password 123456
3) You will now be redirected to the
'enhanced password mode’ where you
can enter your own personal password.
NOTE:
Email is optional and is used for resetting your password.

top to examine the NVR components.
View details of the NVR components by selecting the
categories on the left side menu (please note the
NVR's IP address may be re-assigned automatically if
you are using DHCP settings).
Like the monitor, you can also check any hard disks in
the NVR and format any drives if needed.

Tips for Using Algorithms
When drawing detection zones around camera areas, be sure to outline similar areas with a similar shape to maintain accuracy and
rule out false alarms.
Notice how the detection zones are very different -this
condition may lead to false alarms.
ENTER AREA INTRUSION DETECTION
EXAMPLE OF POOR DRAWINGS
ENTER AREA INTRUSION DETECTION
EXAMPLE OF GOOD DRAWINGS
Notice how the detection zones are very similar -this
condition will rule out false alarms.
