Part 1 - Getting Started
2 Specify whether the system is connected to the Internet and click Next.


If you have chosen No, wait for the test to finish and then click Finish to exit Network Wizard.
3 Select Network Configuration and then click Next. Select either Auto Configuration or Manual Configuration and then click Test to test the system's current network configuration.

4 Enter in the Device Name field the NVR name to be registered on the FEN server and then click Check to check its availability.


- The device name you register on the FEN server will be a unique name used to identify the NVR. Once registered, the name can be used to access the NVR directly from clients such as iRAS. Check the name's availability to complete the registration process. The Finish button will then become activated.
- You will be prompted with an error message if you do not enter a name for the NVR or enter a name already registered on the FEN server.
- Depending on the network environment, FEN services may not be active and therefore prevent the NVR from connecting to the network. In this case, you will need to manually configure the ports. For more information on port configuration, refer to Network Setup on page 44.
5 Click Finish to exit Network Wizard.
Part 1 - Getting Started
Camera Registration
Once Network Setup Wizard is complete, the system will automatically enter Camera Registration mode and scan for cameras connected to the NVR.

1 Camera Scan Button
2 Camera View Menus
3 Camera List Area
4 Video Display Area
5 Apply/Cancel Buttons
You can also register the camera on the remote program. For more information on the remote camera registration, refer to the Registration on page 53.
Camera Scan Button
You can scan and search and register cameras that were not detected automatically or third party cameras.
Rescan
Scans for DirectIP™ cameras that were not scanned automatically.
Third Party Scan
Used to manually scan for third-party cameras that cannot be recognized by the auto scan feature.
√ Some functions may not be supported for the third-party cameras depending on their protocol and model.
Camera registration system is optimized in combination with DirectIP™ camera. If video settings exceed the system performance, certain function may be restricted and we cannot guarantee the recording quality. In this case, please configure the settings again to optimize the performance.

- Protocol: Select the protocol used by the camera (or video encoder) you wish to search for.
Even if the network device uses a protocol supported by the NVR, the device itself may not be visible for scanning and registration by the NVR. For more information about supported network devices and models, contact your retailer.
• Mode: Select the scan mode.
Part 1 - Getting Started
- Advanced Setup: If the camera is networked but not scanned, use this setup. This setup allows you to change the network setting of the NVR's VIDEO IN port which is camera's network environment. Check the camera's network setting first before you use this setup.

Make sure that this setting does not conflict with the WAN setting. For more information on the WAN setting, Refer to WAN on page WAN on page 46.

Link-local address: Indicates the default IP address.

- Manual: Allows you to enter the IP address and other network settings manually.


- DHCP Server: It makes the NVR run as a DHCP server. Check if there is another DHCP server on the same network. If there is no DHCP server, this option is enabled. The NVR allocates an IP address automatically in the range of 10.10.0.128 to 10.10.254.254 by using DHCP to the camera connected to the NVR's VIDEO IN port. On DHCP Server, Video In Network is connected between NVR and network cameras only, so Gateway does not have any meaning. Subnet Mask is 255.255.0.(Class B).

- When several NVRs exist in the same network, only one of NVRs has to be run as a DHCP server. If several DHCP servers are running, the redundant IP may be allocated to the camera. - The range of 10.10.0.1 to 10.10.0.127 is not recommended because NVR system already has the IP address.
1 Select Scan to commence scanning.

Only cameras that are connected to the NVR via VIDEO IN ports can be scanned and registered.

Overlapped Recording Search
If the system's clock is changed to a point in the past, overlapping recordings may be produced. Overlapped recordings have to be searched in segments.
For example, making a recording from 1 o'clock to 5 o'clock, changing the system's clock at 5 o'clock to 3 o'clock, and then continuing to record until 6 o'clock produces two recordings that overlap between 3 o'clock and 5 o'clock. This results in two segments for the period between 3 and 5.

When searching overlapped video recordings, you can choose a specific point in time or a time frame. If you use the Go to the Date/Time option and select a point within the overlapped time period (4 o'clock for example), you must specify 4 o'clock in which of the two existing segments.

If you use the Event Log Search or Motion Detection option and select a time frame within the overlapped time period (4 o'clock to 5 o'clock, for example), you must choose between the two redundant sets of From and To values. Selectable search ranges are as follows:
• 4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 1
• 4 o'clock in segment 1 to 5 o'clock in segment 2
