NETWORK CONFIGURATION

Distinction between “Master” and “Slave”

A master computer is a computer terminal that has operating privileges available for registering and deleting DVRs that are connected to the network. The default setting is for one master computer. In contrast, general computer terminals that do not have operating privileges for registering and deleting DVRs are called slave computers, and a maximum of seven of them can be connected. (P.18)

When using the software on a network, carry out the required network settings at the DVRs first. IP addresses will be assigned automatically, but the “DVR NAME” and “GROUP” settings can also be changed manually using a computer. (P.20)

You should make sure that the TCP/IP settings for the operating system (OS) that you are using match the computers that are connected to the network. (P.5)

Connect the devices to an independent stand-alone network. Furthermore, check with the network administrator to make sure that the IP addresses that you set do not conflict with IP addresses that are already in use by the network.

The firewall function of some computers may cause the port that is required for communication with the DVR to be isolated. If using the Windows XP firewall function or some other firewall software, disable the operation of the firewall function.

If monitoring images that are distorted because of reasons such as an unstable sync signal, the display may not appear normally even if the PC meets the above specifications.
