Connecting to the DVR 

The DVR can be connected with an Ethernet (LAN) cable to a laptop, or it can also be accessed 
wirelessly using a Wi-Fi connected laptop, tablet, or smartphone device.

  

1.  Connect to the DVR: 

a.  LAN: 

Connect a cable from the LAN port on the DVR unit to a LAN port on the laptop using a 
standard (Non-crossover) LAN cable. 

b.  Wi-Fi: 

 

On a Wi-Fi-enabled device (laptop, smartphone or tablet) go to the Wi-Fi settings and connect 
to the Wi-Fi with the name "PV_HDVR_xxxxxx".  The Wi-Fi has a default password of 
“doesitall”.   

NOTE:

  "xxxxxx" is a randomly generated number for each DVR unit sent from the factory. 

2.  Open a web browser software application such as Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, Mozilla® 

Firefox®, or Google® Chrome® browser. 

 

a. 

LAN: Type “192.168.10.254” in the browser address bar 
and press enter. 

b.  Wi-

Fi: Type “192.168.1.254” in the browser address bar 

and press enter. 

 
3. 

You will now be on “PRO-VISION” web interface for the DVR unit. You will see current Unit ID 
(Default: “PVVS” if not yet configured), the model number (PD-1900), and the device’s serial 
number. 

Note

:  When using a web browser to view the live video, the browser will display JPEG images of the 

camera views that refresh once per second.  If you wish to see live video, connect a display to 
either the HD or SD video outputs of the rear of the DVR. 

Setup Wizard 

If you are connecting to the DVR unit for the first time a welcome 
window will appear asking if you want to be walked through 
configuration in a step-by-

step process. Press “Configure Now” 

to begin the setup process. If you wish to manually configure the 
DVR you c

an choose “Configure Later”. 

 
The setup wizard can be accessed from the setting button in the upper right corner 
of the web page and then selecting “Setup Wizard” to begin the process.
