Network Connection Procedure
bNetwork Connection Restrictions
Connections are restricted depending on the connections state of users and the content of the network settings. If a DVR cannot be connected, confirm whether the connection falls under the following restrictions.
Restrictions on the number of simultaneous connected users
There is a limit to the number of users who can connect simultaneously.
When a connection is not possible due to restrictions on the number of simultaneous connections, the message "THE UNIT IS BUSY!" will display.
1Up to four users can connect simultaneously to one DVR.
2Only one user of either ID2 or ID3 can connect.
3When a connection is duplicated, the user with the higher user level will take precedence.
Example:
•If an ID1 user attempts to connect at the same time as four other ID1 users, the connection will not be allowed.
•If an ID2 user attempts to connect at the same time as four other ID1 users, the ID1 user who connected last will be disconnected and the ID2 user will be allowed to connect in the ID1 users' place.
•If an ID3 user attempts to connect at the same time as three other ID1 user and an ID2 user, since ID2 and ID3 users are not able to connect simultaneously, the ID2 user will be disconnected and the ID3 user will be allowed to connect in the ID2 user's place.
