Add IP Cameras 

This chapter mainly introduces how to connect multiple IP cameras through NVR. Once you 
finish adding IP cameras, you can  see the live images through the  monitor of  the  NVR. You 
may  connect  the  previous  16  CH  directly  to  the  device  through  PoE  network  ports  and  then 
add  the  IP  cameras  for  the  remaining  channels  into  the  NVR  via  WAN/LAN.  Here  we  will 
introduce how to add cameras through WAN/LAN. 

To add IP cameras via LAN

Please  go  to  Main  Menu

IP  Camera  tab.  Refer  to  Fig  4-1.  Click  “Search”  button  to

search  the  devices  in  the  same  network.  (The  IPC  which  supports  the  Onvif  protocol
may be added manually.)

Fig 4-1 Device Management 

Go to the search tab. Click “Refresh” to refresh the searched devices. If the IPC is not in

the  same  local  network,  you  can  select  the  device  and  click  “Setup”  to  modify  the  IP 
address of the searched device. Refer to Fig 4-3.
