Display the local PC IP. If your PC is NIC or multi-addressed
local IP, please select one IP address to connect NVS.
The main window indicates that your PC has found the IP camera in LAN. If
there are several IP cameras in your LAN, you can determine which camera is
the one you purchased through “device name” in the main window. There is a
unique device ID number in your package. T
he default device name is “NVS +
device ID number”.

Set IP address
The gateway of your IP camera and local PC must be the same so that you
can visit the IP camera. So we need to set the IP address for the IP camera
before using.
