The AvertX PRO Series network video recorder uses IP network

cameras. To connect an IP camera, plug the network cable into the

desired channel on the back of the recorder. The PRO Series has a

built-in PoE switch, which means that power is supplied to your camera

over the network cable, so there is no need to plug a separate power

supply into your PoE-equipped camera.

Note

AvertX cameras use Power Over Ethernet (PoE), and will

work when plugged into your recorder without any other

equipment. If you are using IP cameras from another

manufacturer, you may need a separate power supply if it is

not a PoE camera.

Note

The AvertX PRO Series supports ONVIF Profile S compliant

IP cameras. However, cameras will require manual set up

(refer to page 95). 3rd party ONVIF compliant PTZ cameras

will have limited functionality when viewed through the NVR.

Please consult with the 3rd party camera manufacturer to

confirm the level of compatibility with the NVR.

Use the RJ45 jack on the rear of the recorder to connect to your router,

modem, or network switch. Do not use this port to connect to an IP

camera.

Connect wired alarm/sensor inputs to the Alarm In ports on the I/O

connector.

Connect wired relay outputs to the Alarm Out port on the I/O connector.
