2.2.2 Connection over LAN network (with DHCP server)
The following steps will describe how to connect the camera to the NVR
over a Local Area Network (LAN), via an external POE switch.
These instructions need to be followed only if you are connecting the
camera to the NVR over a network that has a DHCP server apart of it.
1.
Connect the camera to a POE switch connected to the same network
the NVR is connected to. The network will automatically assign the
camera an IP address in the same range as the rest of the network is
set to.
2.
Connect an Ethernet cable from a PC or Laptop to an Ethernet port
within the same network.
3.
Install the ‘Device Search’ software tool on to the PC or laptop (the
software will be on the ‘Resource’ disc that comes with the camera).
4.
When the software tool has been installed, click the ‘Search’ button
to find the camera on the network. Note down the IP address for that
camera (see image below).
