If you make changes and press
Execute
, the NVR will restart once you press

to exit. You
cannot right-click out of the menu.
Manual Add
If you have changed the default settings of any remote device which you wish to use with
your NVR, you will need to use the
Manual Add
button at the bottom of the window to
add this device to the list of connected devices. This applies to cameras and DVRs which
were previously connected but later removed from the list of connected items. Items being
accessed from outside your local network will also need to be added using this button.
Within the
Manual Add
window, some information may already be displayed but it may not be
correct for the device you are intending to connect.
