N6123 NVR User Manual
Communicating With the NVR
As you will see later in this chapter, most of the common functions (creating recordings, converting files, etc.) and settings can be
controlled under the
NVR
tab in N-Able. However, there are some more advanced settings that you will need to access via the
N6123’s separate web interface configuration pages. This section shows how to access NVR controls in both N-Able and the NVR’s
web interface.
Logging in Using N-Able Software
Once the host IP address is configured properly on the host computer, launch N-Able to view all discovered units. The N6123 units
appear on the following tabs:
Unit Management
tab -
Network Video Recorder
is listed in the
Type
field.
Video Matrix
tab - Depending on the
NVR
Mode
setting (located on the
Settings
page) N6123 units are found on the
N1000
,
N2000
,
and
N3000
sub-tabs of the
Video
Matrix
.
NOTE:
If the tables in N-Able do not automatically populate, select the Unit Management tab and click the Auto Discover button. See
FIG. 5
UNIT MANAGEMENT PAGE
Logging in to the NVR’s Web Interface
Now that you have discovered your units in N-Able, follow these directions to access an individual unit’s web interface. This
interface provides a complete set of configuration options for the unit (not just the more common settings found in N-Able).

Double-click the N6123’s name (on either the
