2.4.3 ‘My Cameras’ folder
Transferring a NetDVR from the ‘Local Area Cameras’ folder to the ‘My Cameras’ folder
makes it possible to rename it and use a Nickname to open the connection. NetDVR
devices on a remote Network can only be registered onto this folder.
When registering a NetDVR, the relevant address information of the selected device is
stored in the PC. This makes it possible to access a registered NetDVR without being in the
same local network.
2.4.4 Creating a new folder
By creating folders and registering the appropriate NetDVR devices in each folder, it is
easier and more convenient to manage multiple devices. To register folders:
•
Move the mouse cursor over ‘My Cameras’.
•
Click the right hand mouse button.
•
Select ‘New Folder’ from the pop-up menu - a dialogue box pops up to enter a new
folder name.
•
Enter the name and press ‘OK’ button to create a new folder.
•
To delete a registered folder, select ‘Delete Folder ’ in the pop-up menu.
2.4.5 NetDVR Registration in ‘My Cameras’
There are two methods of registering a NetDVR into the ‘My Cameras’ folder (or sub-
folders); one for remote networks, and the other for local networks.
2.4.6 Registering a NetDVR in remote Network
•
Move the mouse cursor over ‘My Cameras’.
•
Click the right button of the mouse.
•
Select 'Add Cam’ - a dialogue box pops up
to enter the IP address of the remote
NetDVR.
•
Press the ‘Start Probe’ button, and when
found the NetDVR is automatically
registered.
•
To delete a registered NetDVR, select
‘Delete Cam’ in the pop-up menu.
Note:
The name of a registered NetDVR may have up to 30 English characters or numbers. NetDVR with a dynamic
IP are registered in the ‘WRS’ folder (this option is for future extension).
Important
: For easy access to a remote or local NetDVR always use it on a fixed IP
address.
