DVR front panel; and (3) Applies to both LAN/WAN and local/Front Panel operation:
1. Windows7 IE9 (32-bit) Compatibility Network Connectivity

Windows7 64-bit operating
system has two versions of Internet Explorer 9 (32-bit and 64-bit). When accessing the DVR please
use Internet Explorer 9 32-bit browser.
2. Remote Reboot
(2) (1)
– (optional) users can enable a remote command to reboot the DVR via
the web interface. The check box to enable this feature appears only in the DVR local System
Menu at the bottom of the “Misc.” screen. The button which reboots the DVR is located only in the
web interface System Menu at the top of the “Misc.” screen. If the Internet Explorer window is left
open after clicking on “Reboot Now”, the screen will indicate a break in the network connection
during the reboot process, after which the DVR will reconnect. Change screens to refresh the
display and view updated information.
3. Network Test
(2)
–To verify basic network connectivity
between the DVR and some other LAN or WAN node, the user
can issue an ICMP Ping to a valid IP address. The Ping utility is
useful in diagnosing connectivity problems by obtaining
responses from nodes progressively farther along the network.
