Configuring IP Cameras
Depending on the model of your DVR, IP cameras can be setup and used in conjunction with regular analog cameras.
Before configuring IP cameras, please ensure that all IP cameras are connected to the same network as your DVR and
that the network settings for your DVR is properly setup (See
Configuring Network Settings
).
To configure IP cameras:
1.
Enter the Camera Management menu, shown in Figure 1 by clicking Menu > Setting > Camera.
Figure 1. Camera Management Menu
2.
Determine number of analog channels to disable. Please note that in order to add more than 8
channels of 4CIF IP cameras or 4 channels of 720p IP cameras, you will need to disable some analog
channels. Disabling one analog channel will extend one channel for 4CIF IP camera. Disabling two
channels of analog cameras will extend one channel for 720p IP camera.
3.
To disable analog channels, click the Status button to enter the Camera Enabled Status menu, shown
in Figure 2. Uncheck checkboxes to disable corresponding channels. Click OK to save setting. A
confirmation message will appear on the screen asking you to reboot the DVR. Click Yes to reboot.
After the system has rebooted, enter back into the Camera Management menu and continue with the
following steps.
