3-5-14. Settings - System - PoE management
When IP cameras are connected to the NVR's PoE ports, their power consumption is constantly
monitored, and the power budget is displayed on the PoE management screen.
The following apply to the PoE connections and PoE management:
1.
Cameras will be automatically enlisted to the NVR. The PoE connection status is polled every
10 seconds.
2. For devices that come with multiple video channels, e.g., a video server, each video stream
will occupy a video channel.
3. PoE Plug and Play takes effect after the initial setup. Any cameras connected thereafter
will automatically join the NVR configuration. If you manually delete a camera from list, you
should unplug and then re-connect it to the PoE port before joining the network back to NVR.
4. The above d
oes not apply to ONVIF cameras.
5. The total PoE power budget is 160W. The maximum output for each port is 30W.
6. You can manually enable or disable the PoE output on each port, and configure a priority
setting for each port (should you need to run the deployment on a tight power budget).
7. If port #5, #9, and #12 are configured with Low priority, and power runs short on the NVR. The
ports with smaller port number, e.g., port #5, will be powered first. In this case, ports #9 and #12
may not be sufficiently supplied.
8. The PoE automatic enlistment does not apply for cameras that come with preset credentials,
namely, password-proteced.
9. The PoE port status can reflect the following situations:
A. PoE enable –PoE is working (port icon displayed in green on the upper-right screen)
B. PoE turned OFF –PoE manually disabled (turned to OFF)
C. PoE turned OFF –Port power overload (under camera name)
D. PoE turned OFF –Total power overload (under camera name)
E. PoE turned OFF –Abnormal power supply voltage(under camera name)
F. PoE turned OFF –Non-standard powered device (under camera name)
G. PoE turned OFF –Port error (under camera name)
