D9 Viewer Software

Opening D9 PC viewer

For the best results when accessing your DVR via REMOTE ACCESS or a LAN, use the included software. The remote view- ing/playback software is called D9 VIEWER.

The interface and functionality of the software is quite similar to the interface and functionality of the DVR. There are, however, some notable differences. We will go through using and configuring the D9 VIEWER software over the next few pages.

Again, we must stress that this software is compatible only with 32-bit Windows operating systems. If you are using another operating system, there is the possibility of using a Windows emulator to run the DVR software - however, we cannot guarantee that this will work, and do not support attempting it. We mention it only for intermediate to advanced computer users, who will be familiar with what this entails already.

Opening D9 PC viewer

•On your PC click on START > ALL PROGRAMS (PROGRAMS)

•Find D9-VIEWER and click D9- VIEWER in the D9-VIEWER folder.

•You will see a login screen open.

Note: the DVR must be connected through a network (using the network cable) before configuring.

Note: if you are trying to access your DVR from a location outside of your network you will need to know your PUBLIC IP ADDRESS. If you don’t know your PUBLIC IP ADDRESS go to www.whatismyip.com.

You will need to access this site from a computer which is on the same network as your DVR.
