Note: For some IPCs, if you have set HWDR in the NVR, these IPCs will automatically reboot after setting the following image parameters, including exposure/shutter mode, gain mode, gain, corridor pattern or smart IR. After these IPCs successfully reboot, HWDR will be disabled.

The introductions of these parameters are as follows:

Parameter	Meaning
Brightness	It is the brightness level of the camera's image.
Contrast	It is the color difference between the brightest and darkest parts.
Saturation	It is the degree of color purity. The color is purer, the image is brighter.
Hue	It relates to the total color degree of the image.
Sharpen	It relates to the resolution level of the image plane and the sharpness level of the image edge.
Wide Dynamic	The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even under back light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view, WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provide clear images with details.

9.1 Face Recognition

Only some models support alarm based on face comparison. If your device doesn't support face recognition function, please skip the face database and face recognition instructions.

Please set face recognition function according to the following procedures for the first time.

graph LR
    A["Set face detection and alarm linkage"] --> B["Add face group"]
    B --> C["Add faces to the face group"]
    C --> D["Enable and set successful recognition"]
    E["(or stranger)"] --> F["Set successful recognition (or stranger) alarm linkage"]

9.1.1 Face Detection Settings

Face Detection: Alarms will be triggered if someone intrudes into the pre-defined alarm areas.

① Click Start→Settings→AI/Event→AI Event→Face Recognition→Detection to go to the following interface.

The following picture is for reference only. The parameter settings may vary by models.

Enable Detection by IPC Parameter Settings Trigger Mode Schedule Schedule 24x7 Rule Duration 20 Secs Snapshot Interval 30 Secs Snapshot Number 3 Face exposure 50 Face Size(Range : 3%~50%) Max 50 % Min 3 % Display range Press the left mouse button to drag the drawing area Clear Advanced SD Card storage Original picture Target picture Exit Apply

② Select the camera, check "Enable Detection by IPC" and set the duration.
Note: 1. Some models may support face detection by NVR. For these models, the camera without AI function also can be added and used to detect faces through NVR. But if face detection by NVR is enabled for one camera (without AI), the people/vehicle perimeter detection cannot be enabled simultaneously, and vice-versa.
2. Some AI cameras support event type classification. If the event type is not face event, you need to select face event by clicking Start→Setting→AI/Event→Enable Event. After the camera restarts, face detection of the IPC can be enabled.

Event Notification Alarm-out | E-mail | Display Buzzer | Push Digital Deterrent | Light Alarm Server AI Event Enable Event Perimeter Detection Face Recognition | LPR Video Metadata(BETA) More Camera Name IPC

③ Set the schedule. Click "Manage" to set the desired schedule. Please refer to Schedule Settings for details.
④ Set the snapshot interval and snapshot number. The snapshot interval refers to the time interval that the camera captures the same face during its continuous tracking period. The snapshot number refers to the picture number of the same face captured during its continuous tracking

period (For example: the snapshot interval is set to "30 seconds" and the snapshot number is set to "3"; then the camera will capture the same face once every 30 seconds and it will capture this face 3 times at most during its continuous tracking period).

⑤ Enable face match exposure as need. When the brightness of the captured face is not enough, it can be enabled. (Only some IPCs support this function)
⑥ Set the alarm area. Drag the mouse to draw a detection area. Click "Clear" to delete the alarm area. Then set the detectable face size by defining the maximum value and the minimum value (The default size range of a single face image occupies from 3% to 50% of the entire image).
⑦ Enable "Original picture" or/and "Target picture" as needed. If enabled, the system will automatically save the corresponding images on the SD card.
⑧ Click "Apply" to save the settings.
⑨ Click "Trigger Mode" to go to face detection alarm linkage setting interface:

Parameter Settings Trigger Mode Voice Prompt None Trigger General Record Configure Alarm-out Configure Camera Name Preset Name Snapshot IP91 Push Buzzer Pop-up Video E-mail IP91 None IP92 None Apply

⑤ Click "Apply" to save the settings.

The configuration steps of the above mentioned alarm linkages are as follows.

Duration: it refers to the interval time between the adjacent motion detections. For instance, if the duration time is set to 10 seconds, once the system detects a motion, it will go to alarm and would not detect any other motion (specific to camera) in 10 seconds. If there is another motion detected during this period, it will be considered as continuous movement; otherwise it will be considered as a single motion.

Record: check it and then the "Trigger Record" window will pop up automatically (you can also click the "Configure" button to pop up the window).

Select camera on the left side and then click to set the camera as the trigger camera. Select trigger camera on the right side and then click

to cancel the trigger camera. Click "OK" to save the settings. The trigger cameras will record automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered.

Snapshot: check it and then the "Trigger Snapshot" window will pop up automatically. Configure the trigger camera in the window. The trigger cameras will capture images automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered.

Push: check it and choose ON or OFF. If it is ON, the system will send messages when the sensor alarm is triggered.

Alarm-out: check it and then the "Trigger Alarm-out" window will pop up automatically. Configure the trigger alarm-out in the window. The system will trigger the alarm-out automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered. You need to set the delay time and the schedule of the alarm outputs. See Alarm-out for details.

Preset: check it and then the "Trigger Preset" window will pop up automatically. Configure the trigger preset of each camera. To add presets, please see Preset Setting for details.

Buzzer: if enabled, the system will begin to buzz when the sensor alarm is triggered. To set the delay time of the buzzer, please see Buzzer for details.

Pop-up Video: After camera setting, the system will pop up the corresponding video automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered. To set the duration time of the video, please see Display for details.

Pop-up Message Box: if enabled, the system will pop up the corresponding alarm message box automatically when the sensor alarm is triggered. To set the duration time of the message box, please see Display for details.

E-mail: if enabled, the system will send an e-mail when the sensor alarm is triggered. Before you enable the email, please configure the recipient's e-mail address first (see E-mail Configuration for details).

Virtual alarm: This function should be used with API server. If you want to enable it, please make sure the API Server is enabled first (Start→Network→Port) and then set the authentication as "Digest".

11.2 Motion Alarm

② Select the camera, enable the motion and set the sensitivity and duration of the camera.

Sensitivity: the higher the value is, the more sensitive it is to motion. You should adjust the value according to the practical conditions since the sensitivity is influenced by color and time (day or night).

Duration: it refers to the interval time between the adjacent motion detections. For instance, if the duration time is set to 10 seconds, once the system detects a motion, it will go to alarm and would not detect any other motion (specific to camera) in 10 seconds. If there is another motion detected during this period, it will be considered as continuous movement; otherwise it will be considered as a single motion.

Detection Target: For the camera with SMD function, you can check the detection target as needed. If "Human/Motor Vehicle" is enabled, the camera will only detect the movement of human/motor vehicle. If no target is enabled, alarms will be triggered when the moving object appears on the image, including human, vehicle or other moving objects.

③ Drag the camera image to set the motion area. You can set more than one motion area. Click "All" to set the whole camera image as the motion area. Click "Reverse" to swap the motion area and the non-motion area. Click "Clear" to clear all the motion areas.

Direction: choose "Close", "Enter", "Exit" or "Enter and Exit" as needed.

If "Close" is selected, the LPR/ANPR camera is only used to recognize plates and doesn't trigger the relevant parking management function. If you want to manage vehicles entering and leaving a park by one LPR/ANPR camera, it is suggested to select "Enter and Exit". In this way, vehicles entering the park trigger alarms by default, but vehicles leaving the park don't trigger alarms. Vehicles entering/leaving are classified by recognition mode of the LPR/ANPR camera (recognizing when approaching or driving away). When there is a vehicle approaching, the LPR/ANPR camera captures and reports its license plate, the direction is recognized as "Enter" and the NVR analyzes whether the parking spaces are full. If there are remaining parking spaces, the parking system opens the gate barrier and reduces a remaining parking space. If the parking spaces are full, the gate barrier cannot be opened. When a vehicle is been driving away, the barrier gate can be controlled by the ground sense coil, the LPR/ANPR camera captures and reports its license plate, the direction is recognized as "Exit/Leave" and the NVR increases a parking space.

Note: Only some LPR/ANPR cameras can simultaneously manage the entry and exiting of vehicles.

If "Enter" or "Exit" is selected, the set direction shall prevail.

Appendix A FAQ

Q1. Why can't I find the HDD?

a. Please check the power and SATA data cables of the HDD to make sure they are well connected.
b. For some NVRs with the 1U or small 1U case, the power of the adapter may be not enough for operating them. Please use the power adaptor supplied along with the NVR.
c. Please make sure the HDDs are compatible with the NVR. See Appendix C Compatible Device List for details.
d. The HDD could have gone bad. Change a new one.

Q2. Why are there no images output in some or all of the camera windows?

a. Please make sure the resolutions of the cameras are supported by the NVR.
b. Please make sure the network cables of the IP camera and NVR are both connected properly and the network parameters are set correctly.
c. Please make sure the network and the switch both work normally.

Q3. The screen has no output after booting the NVR normally.

a. Please make sure the screen, HDMI or VGA cables are good and well connected.
b. Please make sure the screen supports the resolution of 1280*1024, 1920*1080 or 3840*2160 (4K*2K). The NVR cannot self-adapt to the screen of which the resolution is lower than 1280*1024, and then the screen will remind you that the screen resolution is not supported by the NVR or just have no display. Please change a screen at 1280*1024, 1920*1080 or 3840*2160 resolution before booting the NVR.

Q4. Forget the passwords?

a. The password for admin can be reset through "Edit Security Question" function.
Click "Edit Security Question" button in the login window and then enter the corresponding answer of the selected question in the popup window, the password for admin will be reset to 1234 by default. If you forget the answer of the question, this way will be invalid, please contact your dealer for help.
b. The passwords of other users can be reset by admin, please refer to Edit User for details.

Q5. The NVR cannot add up to the maximum number of IP cameras?

Take the 16 CH NVR as an example. Some 16 CH NVR support a maximum of 120Mbps bandwidth input (please take the real device for standard). Refer to the picture below. The remaining bandwidth should be larger than the bandwidth of the IP camera you want to add, or you would fail to add the IP camera. You should lower the added cameras' bitrate to release the bandwidth. It is recommended to add cameras by "Quickly Add" for batch adding.

Q6. The IP camera which connects to the PoE port of the NVR cannot be displayed automatically in the camera list, why?

a. Please check whether the resource of the PoE port is occupied by another IP camera that is added through network(including a PoE switch).
● Take the 16 CH NVR with 8 PoE ports as an example. The resource distribution of the 16 CH IP cameras is shown in the picture below.

CH1

CH14

CH15

CH16

POE-1

POE-2

POE-3

POE-4

POE-5

POE-6

POE-7

POE-8

When you add IP cameras through network, the IP cameras will occupy the resource from CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4... by the adding sequence; if you directly connect the IP cameras to the PoE ports of the NVR, the IP cameras will occupy the resource from CH9 to CH16 according to the number of the PoE port each IP camera is connecting to.

Supposing that 12 CH IP cameras have been added to the NVR through network and no IP camera has been directly connected to the PoE port. The

12 CH IP cameras occupy the 8 network resources from CH1 to CH8 and 4 PoE resources from CH9 to CH12 which are supposed to be occupied by connecting the IP cameras directly. In this situation, if you directly connect one IP camera to PoE5, PoE6, PoE7 or PoE8, the IP camera will be displayed in the camera list automatically; if you connect it to PoE1, PoE2, PoE3 or PoE4, it won't be displayed in the camera list by showing resource conflict; if you just need to connect it to PoE1, PoE2, PoE3 or PoE4, you should first delete the IP camera which occupies the PoE port resource and then reconnect it to the PoE port.

- Take the 8 CH NVR with 8 PoE ports as another example. The resource distribution of the 8 CH IP cameras is shown in the picture below and the adding rules of the IP cameras are similar to the rules mentioned in the above. Please refer to the above for details.

CH1	CH2	CH3	CH4	CH5	CH6	CH7	CH8
POE-1	POE-2	POE-3	POE-4	POE-5	POE-6	POE-7	POE-8

b. Please make sure that the internal Ethernet port and the IP camera which directly connects to the PoE port through ONVIF protocol are in the same network segment.

The internal Ethernet port and the IP camera which directly connects to the PoE port through ONVIF protocol should be in the same network segment, or you will fail to add the IP camera. Log in the IP camera's web client and then enable DHCP (obtain an IP address automatically); or manually change the IP address of the IP camera to make it in the same network segment with the internal Ethernet port.

c. Check whether the number of the added IP camera is the maximum.

If the number of the added IP camera is the maximum, the system will show you the message that the IP camera number is beyond the maximum when you directly connect another IP camera to the available PoE port and thus you will fail to add the IP camera.

Q7. The IP camera which directly connects to the PoE port of the NVR through ONVIF protocol is shown in the camera list, but there is no image output, why?

Please make sure the username and password of the IP camera are correct. The IP camera's username and password can be modified through the two ways mentioned as below.

① Click "Edit Camera" in the Camera module of the setup panel to go to the interface as shown below. Click 📋 to modify the username and password of the IP camera (enter the correct username and password of the IP camera in the popup window and then click "OK" button).

Appendix B Calculate Recording Capacity

The recording capacity is mainly up to the record resolution, record stream and bitrate. Different image quality parameters decide different disk capacity occupation in equal times. The bigger the record resolution, record stream and record bitrate is, the more disk capacity is taken up in equal times. The calculation format of recording capacity is shown as below.

Recording Capacity (MB) = Bitrate (Kbps) ÷ 1024 ÷ 8 × 3600 × Recording hours per day × Record Storage Days × channel numbers 3600 means record for an hour (1TB=1024GB, 1GB=1024MB, 1MB=1024KB, 1Byte=8bit).

Record Bitrate (Kbps)	Used Space (MB/H)	Used Space (MB/D)
10240	4500	108000
8192	3600	86400
6144	2700	64800
4096	1800	43200
3072	1350	32400
2048	900	21600
1024	450	10800

512	225	5400
384	168.75	4050
256	112.5	2700

The table below shows the recording capacity requirements for record storage in 30 days.

Record Bitrate (Kbps)	Recording Capacity (TB)
	1CH	4CH	8CH	16CH	32CH	64CH

For instance, there is a 32CH NVR recording 24 hours per day and the record stores for 30 days. The NVR adopts dual stream recording. The main stream is 4096Kbps and the sub stream is 1024Kbps, then the total recording capacity is 49.45TB (39.56TB + 9.89TB). Considering the format loss of the disk is about 10% , the required disk capacity will be 55TB (49.45TB ÷ (1-10%)).
