5.15Accessing the DVR over a network

To access the DVR through a computer you need to make sure the default gateway on the DVR is the same IP address as your router, and the first three sets of numbers of the DVR IP address are the same as the first three sets of numbers of router’s address. Example: if your router’s default gateway is 192.168.1.1 then the default gateway setting in the DVR should be 192.168.1.1, and the first three sets of numbers on the DVR's IP address should be 192.168.1. The last set of numbers has to be different then those on any other devices attached to the router to avoid conflicts. The subnet on the DVR also needs to be the same as the router, example: if the subnet on the router is 255.255.255.0 the subnet on the DVR needs to be 255.255.255.0. To get the default gateway and subnet of the router, on a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR, click on the start button, then click on run, then enter cmd into the box and click on OK. At the curser type ipconfig, the default gateway and subnet will be displayed.

You can access the DVR through an Internet Explorer browser window, or through the included client software program.

To access the DVR through Internet Explorer: once you have set up the network settings on the DVR to match the settings of your router, you need to modify your browser controls. You need to allow Pop-ups. To do so go to the Internet Explorer tool bar and select the "tools" option, then select the "Pop up Blocker" option and select "Turn Off Pop-up Blocker.” You will also need to enable Active X controls. To do so go to the Internet Explorer tool bar and select the "tools" option, then "Internet Options", then "Security", then click the "Custom Level" button, and make sure the Active X Controls and Plug Ins are set to prompt or enabled. To connect to the DVR from the computer you would then open an internet browser window and enter the gateway IP of your router. You will get a login screen were you will need to enter your user name and password (admin and 12345 by default). The first time you connect a webcam program will be downloaded to your system and you may get a message that an ActiveX control on the page may be unsafe but it is ok to click the Yes option to download the control and program since you have requested the program. This will take you to the Internet Explorer Webcam screen. You would click on the Camera Icon to display cameras.

If you wish to access the DVR through the included client software follow the installation instructions in the included manual.
