CAMERA SETUP
The Uniden ProSeries XVR recorders can record Analog/HD over Coax by connecting cameras
to the BNC inputs on the back of the recorder. The IP cameras and the XVR receiver will all have
to be in the same IP range for all the devices to be accessed remotely over the LAN. Once each
device has an individual IP address, you can open a web browser on a remote computer or device
and access the IP cameras or the recorder.
If a WiFi access point is connected to the LAN, you can connect the Uniden ProSeries
Mobile app (or via a web browser) to access the recorder and cameras remotely.
To add IP cameras (IPC) to the XVR you must enable this feature.
