Part I Local Operations
An NVR supports two types of operations: local operations and web-based remote operations.
With local operations you connect a monitor and a mouse to the NVR and use the mouse to
operate. If your NVR has buttons on the front panel or is delivered with a remote control, you
may also control your NVR by pressing the front panel buttons or using the remote control. The NVR has an embedded web server and allows web-based operations. To do this, you need
a PC that has a network connection to the NVR and is installed with a web browser. You just
need to navigate to the NVR's IP address and log in to the Web interface like you log in to the
system locally. This section describes local operations.

number of windows supported may vary with NVR model.
NOTE:
Pressing and holding the scroll wheel for at least 3 seconds will restore the default
resolution.
For remote live view, it is recommended to limit up to 4 channels at 1080p only to avoid
screen flickering. Nevertheless, if flickering screen occurs, it happens only on live view,
the recorded video is not affected.
Preview Configuration
Each preview window (window for short) links to a camera. By default, window 1 links to camera
D1, window 2 links to camera D2, and so on. You may want to change the link to display live
video from a camera in another specified window. The following example describes how to link
window 1 to camera D2 and link window 2 to camera D1.
1. Click window 1 on the right, and then click D2 under Camera on the left. Now D2 appears in
window 1, and None appears in window 2. Meanwhile, is cleared for camera D1, meaning
D1 is not linked to any window.

mentioned in this manual mainly refer to IP camera (or network camera); sometimes they can
also be Digital Video Server (DVS). Before you start, make sure the IP devices are connected to
your NVR via network.
CAUTION: An IP device should be connected to one NVR only. An IP device managed by
multiple NVRs may cause unwanted issues.
Adding an IP Device
This section provides multiple options to add an IP device. Some options are only applicable to
certain NVR models. Choose one as appropriate.
