Preface
This manual describes how to use your NVR locally or on the Web
interface.
In this manual, the terms IP camera and IPC refer to the same thing:
network camera, which requires a connection to the network. And the
IP device mentioned in this manual refers to an IP camera (also known
as network camera) or a Digital Video Server (DVS).
Part I Local Operations
An NVR supports two types of operations: local operations and web-
based remote operations. With local operations you connect a monitor
and a mouse to the NVR and use the mouse to operate. If your NVR has
buttons on the front panel or is delivered with a remote control, you
may also control your NVR by pressing the front panel buttons or using
the remote control.
The NVR has an embedded web server and allows web-based
operations. To do this, you need a PC that has a network connection to
the NVR and is installed with a web browser. You just need to navigate to
the NVR's IP address and log in to the Web interface like you log in to
the system locally.
This section describes local operations.
