Device Connection
1. Connect the supplied power cable from the NR8201/8301 to a power outlet.
2. Press the power button to power up.
3. Connect network cameras to NR8201/8301 LAN ports.
Because NR8201/8301 supports PoE, if the Network Camera is PoE-compliant (802.3af), an
Ethernet cable transmits both power and data.
4. 4-1. If your local network does not have a DHCP server, you may temporarily connect a PC
to an NVR’s LAN port for initial setup. The NVR comes with a default IP, 192.168.100.1. You
may access the NVR server using this IP, and then manually assign an IP to the NVR WAN
port.
4-2. If your local network has a DHCP server, connect the WAN port to your local network,
and use the IW2 utility to find the NVR server IP. You may then access the NVR server by en
-
tering the discovered IP in the address field of a web browser.
5. If you have external devices such as sensors and alarms, make connections from general I/O
terminal block.
