Chapter 3 Software Installation

This chapter describes how to install the NV DVR software and drivers.

The CD-Key is permitted for use on a single computer. It is prohibited to use the CD-key on more than one computer. Once detected, this would cause a system conflict and some of the features might fail to work on both PC.

Before installing the software, make sure that the Windows OS patches and the video graphic card driver are UPDATED.

If you have an old version of the NV DVR software installed in your PC, the old copy must be removed. To remove, click Start>Settings>Control Panel and then double click Add/Remove Programs. In Add/Remove Programs list, select NV DVR and then click Remove.

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND having three (3) separate drives for the main system (OS and NV DVR software), storage and backup. The ideal hard disk size for the main drive is 20GB. As for the storage and backup, at least 60GB each. The hard drives format must be in NTFS. This way we can maintain an optimized system for your security.

For Windows 2000, make sure the hyper-threading setting is DISABLED from the PC BIOS system.

To ensure getting the latest copy of NV DVR software, go and download the

updated version from the following site:

Chapter 8 Using the Remote Programs

You can use Microsoft Internet Explorer to access NV DVR server by entering the IP address or domain name. To use this feature, make sure that you are connected to the internet and the Network feature is enabled.

Accessing this feature for the first time you will be prompted by your browser to install WebCamX.cab, allow the installation and you should be able to connect and login afterwards.

For Windows 2000, click Yes when the Security Warning dialog box appears.

For Windows XP, click Install when the Internet Explorer - Security Warning dialog box appears.

After installing the WebCamX.cab and when connecting to the NV DVR server, you are required to enter User ID, password and select the network type.

If you are not in a LAN network environment, remote playback video may be un-

smooth due to network speed limitation. Slow network transmission speed may possibly cause system performance drop as well.
