Port
Address
Available only if Moveable is selected in the Camera Type field.
Lets you specify port address of the camera.
The port address would normally be 0 or 1. If using daisy chained
PTZ cameras, the port address will identify each of them, and you
should verify your settings with those recommended in the cameras'
manuals.
Using DVR Devices
You can easily use DVR (Digital Video Recorder) devices with your NetDVMS application. A DVR device is
added like any other device.
The user of NetGuard-EVS will experience no difference from viewing video from a camera attached to at
DVR than viewing video from any other camera. When the user views recordings, the recordings will be
viewed from the DVRs own hard disk instead of a database in your NetDVMS application.
As an administrator you will notice that a DVR device is displayed the same way in the
Administrator
window
as a video encoder. However, the use of PTZ cameras is not supported by DVR devices.
