Analog Cameras

In the VR-N900U, analog input circuitry is considered a network encoder (IP video server) and the IP address 192.168.201.12 has been set. The registered address [N900 (192.168.201.12)] will appear in the [Device Manager] section on the [Camera Record Setting] window.

The analog cameras that are connected to [VIDEO IN 1-4] terminals on the rear panel correspond to N900 cameras 1 to 4.

You can change the default name (N900) by clicking the [Edit Device] button, but you cannot change the IP address (192.168.201.12).

Note

The audio signal which is inputted into [AUDIO IN] audio input terminal 1 and 2 of the rear panel will record and archive as the audio of the analog camera which is connected to [VIDEO IN] camera image signal input terminal 1 and 2. (Same applies for the network encoder which has the multiple image and audio input terminals of VN-E4, etc.)
