This section of the provides instructions on setup

1.4.1Local Access Setup

1.Login to your NVR, open the main menu then go to -> Network -> General.
2.Ensure that the option for DNS is set to Static DNS.
3.Write down the IP address that is located in the IP Address field.
4.Click the Advanced tab at the top and change the HTTP port to any 4 digit number above 1024.
5.Click the Apply button at the bottom right hand of the page.
6.Write down the HTTP port number you inputted in the HTTP port field.
7.Open up a web browser and type in the IP address you wrote down, and then add a colon mark, and add the port number to the end. The IP should look something like the following: http://192.168.2.135:1111
8.Install the plugins onto your browser.
9.Once installed, enter in your login credentials and click Log In.
10.Save this page as a bookmark so you can quickly access the interface while on the same network.

1.4.2Remote Access Setup

For the purposes of this guide, we will outline the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) method for setting up remote web access. For this method, your NVR should still be connected to your router and your computer should also be on the same network as your router – but only for the . Afterwards to enable remote access, the computer should be connected to a network that other than the one connected to the NVR.

1.Login to your NVR, open the main menu then go to Device Settings -> Network -> Advanced.
2.Ensure that the checkbox next to “UPNP enable” is checked (it should be checked by default).
3.Find where it says “Server Port”, and you should notice that the port number is set to 9000. You want to change this to 9999.
4.Find where it says “HTTP Port”, and you should notice that the port number is set to 80. Change this number to 8888.
5.Once you have completed steps 4 and 5, please click the “Apply” button down below to save your settings. When it asks you to confirm, click “OK”.
6.On a computer, open a web browser, then go to Google.com and search “what is my ip”. Google will return your “Public IP Address” at the top of the first search results page (you will not need to click anything after hitting “Enter” to see this). Write this number down and have it ready for the next step.
7.Open up a new tab or browser window and type your Public IP address into the browser window, and then add a colon and your HTTP port number. It should look something like this: http://55.555.5.555:8888.
8.Install the plugins onto your browser.
9.Once installed, enter in your login credentials and click Log In.
10.Save this page as a bookmark and you can try it out when you are on another network away from the location of the NVR.

Note: Remote access does not work when connected to the same network as the NVR, whether it be wirelessly or through a wired connection. Local setup will have to be configured separately to enable local access. Please see the steps on the previous page for information on how to do this.

For detailed operation information about web access, please refer to the User Manual included in the packaged CD, or the paper copy of the User Manual included with the system.
