12.1 Network Menu - General
In the General sub-menu you can set up the recorders network settings. Setting your
recorder up on a network will allow you to remotely monitor the recorder from a PC,
tablet or mobile phone once either
P2P setup or port forwarding has been
configured. You can also connect to IP cameras on the same network, send email
notifications and schedule automatic FTP uploads.
Your recorder should be plugged in to a network or router before you make changes
in this section.
Local Connection Settings
Selecting DHCP the easiest way to complete this section as it will allow the network
to automatically set the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, IPv6 address and IPv6
gateway.
Once the network parameters have been set, deselect DHCP to lock in the
credentials and to prevent the network re-assigning them in the future. These
credentials are what the software and apps use when looking for the recorder over
the internet so if they change the software wont be able to find the recorder.
If you know what credentials you wish to use, such as a static IP address, you can de-
select DHCP and enter them manually.
Note: If your IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway show as 000.000.000.000 this
means that your recorder is not connected to the router.
