Connection Procedure:

￿The First step is to purchase or make a straight through cable. We recommend purchasing one if you have never made a straight through cable. Please remember you can not use a cross-over network cable for this application

￿Once you have a straight through cable plug one end into the LAN port on the back of the recorder and the other into the router.

￿Log into the EverFocus DVR menu and go to the Network Setting Menu.

￿To let the router automatically assign an address:

￿Set the Network Type to DHCP. Make sure to write down the IP address and the Gateway.

￿Exit from the Menu to save settings.

To manually assign an address:

￿Go to a computer connected on the same network as the DVR.

￿Click on the Start button and choose Run.

o If using Windows Vista, choose Search instead.

￿Type “command” and click on OK.

o In Vista, you will need to double-click on the “Command Prompt” file to open it..

￿In the DOS prompt, type “ipconfig” and press Enter.

￿The network information will be displayed on a screen similar to the one below. o In Windows Vista, look for the information that says “IP v4”.
