9. Configuration of camera on LAN Port plug and play
Note: This configuration method applies to ETS cameras.
9.1 Automatic Configuration
The NVR will automatically configure the IP address of an ETS camera connected by LAN if:
The default IP configuration method of the camera is DHCP.
The camera is powered on before the NVR is powered on.
If not, you can configure the IP address of your camera manually as described further below.
9.2 Manual Configuration
If the NVR does not configure the IP address of your camera automatically as described above, the default IP
configuration method of your IP camera may not be set to DHCP. To solve this, reconfigure the camera’s IP
address to 10.1.1.xx (xx ranges from 11 ~ 253), in the same network segment as the NVR.
1. In the quick operation panel [18], click . You’ll see the list of every connected IP camera with its
connection status and MAC address.
2. Select an IP address that is not used (UNUSED), and click SETUP.

NVR2
V. 01 –04/03/2013 8 ©Velleman nv

2. Click APPLY and EXIT to save your changes.
3. Wait until the NVR detects the IP camera and displays images.
9.3 Configuring a remote internet camera
Via internet you can record video images from an IP camera in a remote location.
1. Make sure that the IP camera is accessible outside its LAN network via a dynamic domain name (for
example ip_office.ddns.eagleeyes.tw).
2. In the main menu [19], click (ADVANCED CONFIG) and select CONNECTION.
3. To assign a channel to a remote IP camera, click URI to enter the address of the camera and its port
number.
4. Click SETUP to enter the access information of the camera.
5. Enter the user name (USER NAME) and password (PASSWORD) to access the IP camera.
6. Click GET TYPE to detect the camera and make sure the access information is correct.
7. Select the image size (IMAGE SIZE), image quality (QUALITY), and images per second (I.P.S.).
Note: The available options depend on the camera you want to connect.
8. Click GET TYPE to detect the camera and make sure the access information is correct.
9. Optional: for a camera with audio recording, set AUDIO to ON or OFF.

NVR2
V. 01 –04/03/2013 10 ©Velleman nv
3. Select “DHCP”, and configure the DNS setting and port number.
The default port number is 80. Typically, the TCP port used by HTTP is 80. However in some cases,
it is better to change this port number for added flexibility or security.
4. Then, note down the IP address shown in “IP”. This is the IP address assigned to your NVR by the router.
You’ll need it later for port forwarding.
5. Go to “DDNS”, and select “eagleeyes” in “SYSTEM NAME”.
6. Note down the whole address under “CURRENT HOST ADDRESS”, such as
[email protected]. This will be the address used to access your NVR remotely.
7. Select “EXIT” to return to the live view, and continue to the next step for port forwarding.
8. From the web browser of your PC, enter the IP address of your router to access your router.
9. Enter the user name and password if needed.
10. In the router setting interface, go to the port forwarding (or virtual server) rule configuration page.
The naming of port forwarding or virtual server may vary based on different router brands. To know where
it is, refer to the user manual of your router.
11. Enter the NVR IP address and the port number you just noted down and enable this rule.
11.2 Configuring a push video trigger
Go to Advanced Config > Notify > tab Push Video
You can have the NVR send a push video to your mobile device for every channel.
