4 Web Operation
Important
Slightly difference may be found in the interface due to different series. The following operation is based 32-channel series product.
This series NVR product support the Web access and management via PC. Web includes several modules: Monitor channel preview, record search, alarm setup, system configuration, PTZ control, monitor window and etc.
4.1 Network Connection
Before web client operation, please check the following items:
Network connection is right NVR and PC network setup is right. Please refer to network setup(main menu->setting->network) Use order ping ***.***.***.***(* NVR IP address) to check connection is OK or not. Usually the return
TTL value should be less than 255.
Open the IE and then input NVR IP address. System can automatically download latest web control and the new version can overwrite the previous
one.
If you want to un-install the web control, please run uninstall webrec2.0.bat. Or you can go to
C:\Program Files\webrec to remove single folder. Please note, before you un-install, please close all web pages, otherwise the un-installation might result in error.
Current series product supports various browsers such as Safari, firebox browser, Google browser.
Device only support 1-channel monitor on the Apple PC.
About PoE address setup, operation and allocation.
1) Insert PoE After you insert PoE, device may try to set a corresponding IP address of the Switch network adapter. First, system tries to set via arp ping. It then uses DHCP if it finds the DHCP is enabled. After successfully set IP address, system may use Switch to send out broadcast, system thinks the connection is OK when there is any response. Now system is trying to login the newly found IPC. Now please check the interface, you can see the corresponding digital channel is active now. You can see a small PoE icon at the top left corner. You can see the PoE channel, PoE port information and etc from the connection list of the remote device interface (Chapter 5.6.11 in the Users Manual). For the IP search list, you need to click the IP search to display or refresh.
2) Remove PoE After you removed PoE, you can see the corresponding digital channel becomes idle (disable). On the remote device interface, it is removed from the connected list. For the IP search list, you need to click the IP search to refresh.
3) After you insert PoE, system follows the principles listed below to map channel.
a) If it is your first time to insert PoE, system can map it to the first idle channel. After map, the
channel can memorize the MAC address of the IPC. It is a <Channel>---<IPC mac> map. If current channel does not connect to other device, system can memorize current MAC
Page 19
14
address, otherwise it can refresh to the newly added device and memorize the <PoE port>--­<Channel>.
b) If it is your second time to insert the PoE, system can check the saved MAC address
according to <Channel>---<IPC mac> map to make sure current IPC has connected or not. If system finds the previous information and the channel is idle, system can map it to the previously used channel. Otherwise system goes to the next step.
c) Thirdly, according to the <PoE port>---<Channel> map, system can know the previous
mapping channel of current PoE port. System can select current channel if it is free. Otherwise, it goes to the next step:
d) Fourthly, system goes to find the first idle channel it can get. Generally speaking, once you insert PoE, system follow the steps listed above to find the channel available.
4) When you insert PoE, all channels are in use now. System can pop up a dialogue box for you to select a channel to overwrite. The title of the pop-up interface is the name of the current operation PoE port. In this interface, All PoE channel become grey and can not select.
4.2 Login
Open IE and input NVR address in the address column. For example, if your NVR IP is 10.10.3.16, then please input http:// 10.10.3.16 in IE address column. System pops up warning information to ask you whether install webrec.cab control or not. Please click yes button. If you cant download the ActiveX file, please modify your IE security setup. After installation, the interface is shown as below. See Figure 4-1. Please input your user name and password. Default factory name is admin and password is admin.
Note: For security reasons, please modify your password after you first login.
