Before adding an IP camera you will need to set its IP
address (refer to the manual supplied with the cameras).
The cameras need to be on the same network segment as
the NVR. The
default NVR address
is
192.168.1.254
. This
means camera IP addresses all need to start with
192.168.1
.
The last number has to be diff erent for each camera.
When using Zip cameras on a Zip PoE NVR simply set the
switch to ‘Auto’ in network setup (pg24) and your cameras
will automatically connect. For non PoE NVRs or if you’re using
other makes of camera just follow these steps.
If all the cameras have the same user name and
password like the Zip range then you can use ‘
Add All
’
and enter the
Username and Password
. The NVR will
search the network and add all of the cameras.
If any camera has diff erent log-on details they will be
added but not viewable
(the status indicator will be
red not green)
until they are edited and the correct
sign details entered. This can be done by clicking on the
edit icon
next to the relevant camera, on this screen.
To add multiple cameras, right click on the screen then
choose ‘
Add IP Camera
’ or if you are in the menu select
‘
Video
’ on the top bar, click ‘
Camera
’ and then select the
‘
IP Cameras
’ tab down the left hand side.
