Editing IP cameras connected to the PoE interfaces
The PoE interface allows the NVR system to pass electrical power and data
through Ethernet cables. Up to eight PoE interfaces can connect to the network
cameras. To use an online network camera, you must first disable a PoE
interface. One PoE interface is disabled for each online network camera. The
PoE interface supports the Plug-and-Play function.
Example:
When using 4-Channel, 8-Channel, 16-Channel, or 32-Channel NVRs, to
connect two online cameras and six network cameras via PoE interfaces, you
must disable two PoE interfaces for the online cameras.
To add cameras for NVRs supporting PoE function:
1. Connect the network cameras via the PoE interfaces.
2. Click Main menu > Camera > Camera, to view a list of connected cameras,
as shown below.
Note: You cannot delete the cameras connecting to the PoE interface in this
menu.
3. Click , and then select the Adding Method in the drop-down list.
