3 Network Connection & IP assignment
The Sharx Security HTNC4420PTZ can be used with a router, or completely standalone, or with a Sharx
Security or other brand of ONVIF compatible NVRs (network video recorders).
When used with a Sharx Security NVR there is no need for any IP configuration
. Simply plug it in one of
the NVR’s available network jacks, and the NVR will recognize and automatically display and record it.
When used with a router, the HTNC4420PTZ is shipped configured for the IP address 192.168.30.220 that’s
purposely outside the range of most routers. You would then use the SmartManager software to set the
desired IP address. SmartManager for PCs can be downloaded from the support section on the Sharx
When used totally standalone it might make more sense to use the camera’s default fixed IP since there
would not be another device to supply an IP address.
Running SmartManager should find the camera on your network as shown above. Select the camera on the
list and richt click the mouse, and you’ll see the pop-up menu shown below.
Select Assign IP Address. The Assign IP window will display. Enter the required IP address.
In the example below, the camera is being set up for an IP address of 192.168.0.201, with a common subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway (router address) of 192.168.0.1
