4.5 REMOTE DEVICE
While cameras connected directly to the NVR through the POE ports will automatically
connect and display video, remote cameras connected to your system must be located
and added manually. This can be done through the process described in
Section 2.4 IP
Cameras
at the beginning of this manual or through the
Remote Device
window.
Use of remote devices requires that your NVR is connected to a router. These devices can
be IP cameras or even QC-series DVRs. If you intend to connect to devices that are located
outside of your local network, then this router must be able to access the Internet. Instructions
for connecting your system to the Internet are presented in the
Remote Monitoring Guide
that also came on the CD with your system. It is also available from our online resource at
www.Q-See.com/Support
.
Similarly, the remote devices must be able to communicate with the local network or Internet.
This will be covered in
Chapter 4
of the
Remote Monitoring Guide
as well.

Device
Error
There is an issue with the connected device that is preventing it
from operating normally.
Clicking on
IP Search
under the upper portion of the window will generate a list of all devices
that the NVR was able to locate - both directly connected as well as connected to the same
network as your system. Items showing a short IP address beginning with “10” are cameras
directly connected to the NVR and who’s IP addresses were assigned by the NVR itself. Care
should be taken that you do not attempt to connect a device that is already connected to the
system as it will create a duplicate video feed and could cause connectivity issues.
