Troubleshooting
1. Device Fails to Start or Restart Continuously 2. Failure to Use Remote Controller
3. Blurred NVR preview screen 4. Internet disconnected to NVR.
5. Blurred playback screen/ Fail to search 6. Cannot play downloaded
recordingfile backupvideos.
7. I had set all the mobile detector alarm, occlusion alarm and video occlusion right. But
why does it still not work?
It might because the ONVIF of your IPC does not support such functions.
8. No IPC searched
It might because your NVR or IPC is disconnected to internet. Please try to check if your
device is correctly connected to internet, or check if there is a IP conflict.
Possible Reasons:
1) NVR’s upgrading wrong program leads to
the damage of system software.
2) NVR encounters power or board faults,
please contact the supplier for repair.
3) HDD error, please change another HDD.
4) Panel program wrong choice:
Setup→Device Parameter→Setup
Information→Interface Version.
Aluminum panel please choose MINI.
Other plastic panels choose corresponingly
01, 02, 05, etc.
5) NVR IP address conflict.
Possible Reasons:
1) Please check whether the batteries in
Remote Controller are installed correctly,
especially the postive and negative.
2) Please check whether the batteries in
Remote Controller are still charged.
3) Please check whether the Remote
Controller window is hidden.
4) Please check the Remote Control
address in NVR is matched with Remote
Controller address.
Possible reason:
Unmatched video input feature. If the
camera uses NTSC, but the NVR uses
PAL, this could lead to a blurred screen.
Possible reasons:
1) Please check if your physical network is
normal or not.
2) Please check your NVR parameter setting.
3) Please if there is IP conflict.
Possible reasons:
1) Program misread. Please reboot the NVR.
2) Bad track or bad cluster in the hard dis
k
data. Please detect your hard disk and
change a new one if broken.
3) NVR hardware fault. Please contact you
r
supplier.
Possible reasons:
1) Player installing mistake.
2) Wrong USB flash disk or wrong mobile hard
disk drives file system.
3) No DX9.0 or higher diagram speedup.
NVR Manual
- 17 -
9. No sound when preview or playback
1) Check if there is an audio in your IPC: you can test it through IE or the built-in client or
through computer.
2) Wrong audio format: NVR only supports G711 audio compressed format. Please adjust
your format through IE of the built-in client.
10. No diagram after being saved.
It can be a wrong username or password. It might also because the camera gun may use a
proprietary protocol leading to incompatibility. Suggestion: use camera guns that support i8 or
other proprietary protocol or the internationally agreed ONVIF.
11. There is a videotape prompt of a certain diagram and also have images when double
clicked, but no image in multi-channel preview, why?
Right click that channel and there will be a pattern pull-down list in the Remote Configuration,
try to replace the main stream with a sub stream and save it. If there is still no image, it might
because the sub stream is set too high, less than 1m is suggested.
12. A multi-channel preview is working correctly, but when double-click on the single
picture, it turns to black screen or the image stuck, unable to playback the video.
Please check whether your IPC is 1080p, if yes, then click on the Settings - > device
parameters - >pattern, and see if you can use 1080 pattern. 1080p videos can only display
sub stream under the 720P channel pattern. Please set 1080p IPC to the specified channel.
Select the correct mode and reboot OK.
13. Can not login to the IE viewing?
Please set up according to the following method:
1) IE setting--Internet options--Security--Custom level--enable all relevant options of
ActiveX.
2) Find and delete original plugin file “dvr_activex” at first ,then download and install it
again.
