Setting up your DVR for Remote Connectivity
Step 1 of 4: Port Forwarding
You
must
port forward the HTTP and Client ports
(default:
80
and
9000
) on your router to
your DVR’s IP address before you can remotely connect to your system. There are several
methods to port forward your router:
• Manually port forward the required ports on your router to your DVR’s IP address by
following your router manufacturer’s instructions. For more information on port
forwarding, see the reference guides on
www.digimerge.com
.
• Use the
Auto Port Forwarding Wizard
(PC only) to port forward the required ports (visit
www.digimerge.com
for the Wizard software and manual).
NOTE:
If the above ports are not forwarded on your router, you will not be able to access your
system remotely.
Step 2 of 4: Create a DDNS Account
FLIR offers a free DDNS service for use with your system. A DDNS account allows you to

to your system remotely.
