Server
folder.
Click
Add Server
.
Enter the DVR Server’s
IP Address
or
Hostname
, a
Name
that you can recognize it by, and the
Server Type
.
(
Embedded DVR
is the correct type for an
AIRSHIP
Embedded DVR)
Click
OK
.
On the left, branch out the
Server
folder and you’ll see a new
icon for this new
Server
. Click on that icon.
Try clicking on
Retrieve Server Properties
(see the note
below if
Retrieve Server Properties
fails).
If your network connection is good and your user has access,
then your
Server Properties
below will get filled in with the
number of cameras, etc.
A new
Group
with the newly connected DVR’s cameras listed
will be created for you. See the
Groups
folder on the left to
see this new
Group
and make any changes you want.
Click
OK
at the bottom right to save your new DVR Server
settings for this Client.
On the Main Screen you’ll see the new Group and you can drag-n-
drop the cameras listed onto the Display Area to see Live Views
from the new DVR Server or click on Playback to review recorded
video.
