•
Protocol
: Select the protocol you wish to search for
that was used by the camera (or video encoder).
•
Even if the network device uses a protocol
supported by the NVR, the device itself may not be
visible for scanning and registration by the NVR. For
more information about supported network devices
and models, contact your retailer.
•
The supported scan modes may vary depending on
the protocol selected.
•

–
Auto Scan(LAN)
: Lists any cameras in a LAN
environment. If Auto Scan (LAN) fails to recognize
the camera, try using the IP Address scan instead.
–
IP Address
: Enter the IP address of a camera.
The NVR scans for the camera that matches the
specified address. If you enter an IP address
range, the NVR scans for cameras falling under
the specified address range. By specifying an IP
address, you can also specify which port to use
with the Remote Admin feature. It is recommended
that you do not network the camera via DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). If the
camera is networked via DHCP, the camera may
not be connected properly depending on changes
in the external network environment.
•
Filter
: Enter a keyword in the MAC Address / Address
/ Model / Name / Status fields for the selected camera.
This allows the user to scan this camera easily.
When configuring a port, the device may fail to scan
if the port selected for the NVR and the port selected
for the camera differ. In this case, you must register the
camera to change its IP address.
