To power the DVR up simply connect the external PSU, the DVR will then automatically power up. Once the DVR is powered up, the following conditions will be set:

• The DVR will automatically start recording on all available channels, unless a channel is set to not record (disabled) or the schedule is set to limit recording to Motion Detect, Alarm Event or a Timed Schedule

• The video loss alarm will not sound for any channels not used when the DVR is powered up. The video loss alarm will only become active once a channel has a video signal connected

• The time and date the DVR was powered up will be recorded in the log

• The DVR will be locked and will require a password to be entered before any user functions become available

To power the DVR down it is recommended that the power button be used. If the power is simply removed by unplugging the external PSU this can result in loss of some recordings and the power down not being logged.

To power down simply press the power button on the front of the DVR. This will require a password with the correct access level. This prevents unauthorised use of the power button.

The default engineer password is 888888

The DVR will now power down in an orderly way, it will ensure that the latest video is securely recorded and that the power down time and date is logged together with the user name who initiated the power down.

As shipped, the VGA monitor is set to show the on screen display. To switch the on screen display between the VGA and BNC monitor press Back > 1 > Back.

Modem Router Settings

In order to view and operate the DVR over the internet you may have to change some settings in the modem router. The settings that require changing are called port forwarding. Unfortunately almost every router has a different method of setup so please refer to your modem router instructions or visit www.portforward.com. Here you will nd detailed instructions on how to congure your modem router.

The settings you will need to congure are as follows:Forward port 5050 to local IP address e.g. 192.168.0.10 (the DVR) Forward port 6050 to local IP address e.g. 192.168.0.10 (the DVR) Forward port 80 to local IP address e.g. 192.168.0.10 (the DVR) Forward port 7050 to local IP address e.g. 192.168.0.10 (the DVR) for use with mobile phones

UPNP

Alternativlely, using UPNP (universal plug & play) you can congure the portforwarding automatically providing the router supports this feature and has it enabled. For more on UPNP see page 104.

PTZ setup

There are four steps to setting up a PTZ camera, options 2, 3 & 4 can only be set after option 1 (PTZ Protocol) has been set. Settings for PTZ preset positions is optional but options 1,2 & 3 must be set and they must match the settings on the PTZ camera.

1: Select Protocol This is the language that the DVR will use to communicate with the PTZ camera.

Options

• Pelco P

• Pelco D

2: Set Baud rate

This is the transmission speed used to communicate with the PTZ camera. It is recommended that a slow speed is used as this will increase the reliability of the communication.

Options

• 1200 baud

• 2400 baud (default)

• 4800 baud

• 9600 baud

3: PTZ ID

Each PTZ camera must have a separate ID this is set in both the PTZ camera and the DVR. e.g. If PTZ on channel 1 is set to ID1, set to ID1 in DVR menu, if PTZ is set to ID2, ID3 etc, then set to corresponding ID in DVR menu.

Options

• 1 to 255

4: PTZ Preset Setup

You can use the DVR to set preset positions on the PTZ camera. It is not necessary to use the DVR if a joystick controller is used with the PTZ camera as setting preset positions can be set much easier using the joystick keyboard. Also only preset positions 1 to 16 can be set using the DVR but when using a joystick keyboard many more preset positions can be programmed, if the PTZ camera used will support them.

Options

• Set Preset 1 to 16

Set channels in use

This option allows the DVR to be set so that some channels are completely disabled. If channel(s) are disabled then all access to them in setup menus will be removed and the channel(s)will not record or monitor video loss.

This effectively allows a 16 channel DVR to be converted in to a 14 channel DVR and will save programming time and HDD space.

The channels can be switched back on at any time, but the DVR will require a restart after this setting is changed.

Inspire Black 960H DVR Range

Normal record settings

The Inspire range of DVRs have two settings for recording, Normal and Event. Normal record settings are used when the DVR is constantly recording or recording according to a time schedule.

Event record settings are used if the DVR is reacting to a motion detect event or an alarm input event.

This allows the DVR to be recording normally using one set of settings and if an event is detected the record settings will be changed for the duration of the event.

Normal record settings have three categories, these settings affect the recording quality and HDD space used.

1: Normal Record Quality

This can be set to normal, high or super high. Normal will provide a good quality picture and is economical with HDD space.

2: Normal Resolution

The resolution has a large effect of the recorded quality especially if playback is in full screen. There are three settings CIF, 2 CIF and D1.

• CIF is 360 x 288 pixels, this is equivalent to 1/4 a normal full screen.

• 2CIF is 720 x 288 pixels, this provides approximately twice the detail as CIF but will require around twice the HDD space.

• D1 is 720 x 576 this is full screen resolution recording it will give excellent playback quality but requires up to four times the HDD space as CIF.

• 960H (SD1) is 960 x 576 this is wide screen resolution recording, it will give excellent playback quality but requires up to 33% more HDD space than D1.

3: Normal Frame Rate

This setting will not affect the recorded quality but will adjust the number of frames recorded per second. Real time is 25 FPS. Reducing the frames per second will have the biggest effect on the amount of HDD used.

A recommended setting for normal quality and good use of HDD space is:

• High Quality

• CIF Resolution

• 12 Frames per second

A recommended setting for very high quality and heavy use of HDD space is:

• Super High Quality

• SD1 Resolution

• 6 Frames per second

Time record calculator

The record time calculator can be used to provide the engineer an estimate of the time the DVR will record for. The calculation is made using the size of the HDD tted and an average of the normal recording settings.

Event record settings are not taken in to account .

Scheduled record settings are not taken in to account.

Care should be taken using the calculator as it is an estimate and actual times can vary considerably in use.

The calculator is provided as an estimate and guide only and should not be relied upon

as an accurate indication of record times that will be achieved.

Network type

There are two types of network settings that can be used with inspire DVRs, Static IP and DHCP. Static IP is a manually assigned xed setting. DHCP is where the network settings are assigned by a DHCP server on the network, this is usually a router. For most applications a static IP is best as this will not allow the network settings to be altered, and will prevent problems with access from a remote location.

Engineer Manual

Inspire Black 960H DVR Range

IP address: This is a unique address on the network the default setting is

usually sufcient for most simple networks. However care should be taken to ensure that no other device on the network has the same address.

Sub net mask: This is usually set to 255.255.255.0 if this needs to be changed

consult the network administrator.

Gateway: This is the IP address of the gateway to the internet, this is usually

the router on simple networks and is usually set to 192.168.0.1

Primary DNS: This is the IP address of the domain name server, this is used

to look up an IP address for a named domain. The DVR will need this if email, DDNS or time synchronisation is to be used. Otherwise this does not need to be set for network access.

Secondary DNS: This is the IP address of the secondary domain name server,

this is used to look up an IP address for a named domain. The DVR will need this if email, DDNS or time sync are to be used. Otherwise this does not need to be set for network access.

Network details

If the network type is set to DHCP then these settings will be automatically set by the DHCP server. If the network type is set to Static IP then these details will need to be set manually.

These settings need to be set in accordance with the network the DVR is being connected

to, for help with this consult with the network administrator.

Engineer Manual

Inspire Black 960H DVR Range

There are four port settings that the DVR uses to communicate on a network.

All the ports can be changed but care should be taken as the port settings in the DVR must match open ports in the router, and the router must be set for port forwarding for remote access across the internet.

UPNP

Alternativlely, using UPNP (universal plug & play) you can congure the portforwarding automatically providing the router supports this feature and has it enabled. For more on UPNP see page 104.

For details on setting your router for port forwarding see http://www.portforward.com.

HTTP port: The http port is used to send web pages from the DVR to a

remote computer. Port 80 is the standard port for web browsers such as Internet Explorer. This can be changed for security if required.

Command port: This is used to send and receive commands from remote

computers.

Video port: This is used to stream video to remote computers.

Mobile port: This is used to stream video to windows mobile or iPhone

devices.

Engineer Manual

Inspire Black 960H DVR Range

Email Settings

If the DVR is connected to the internet it can be set to send an email to up to 5 different people. The email will contain details of the DVR and the event that triggered the email. In addition a snapshot of the event will be attached.

The email will be sent if various events take place, these must be set in the event section.

To set up email you must have set the DNS in the network settings.

You will need to have all the details for the outgoing email account as well as the recipients email address.

Please ask the network administrator for these details.

Authentication

Attach JPG

This is the authentication method for sending emails. Usually this is set to “Login”.

This enables or disables the sending of an image snapshot when email is sent due to an Alarm, Motion or Video Loss event.

Engineer Manual

Inspire Black 960H DVR Range

Schedule

Send Test Email

SSL

Setting the schedule determines when emails are sent, they can be programmed to be sent 24/7 or between specic days and times of the week.

This can be used to check if the email and DNS servers are set correctly. If the settings are correct a “send successfully” message will appear and an email will appear in the recipients inbox. If the settings are incorrect a “send unsuccessful” message will appear.

SSL Encryption is an encryption method often required when sending emails by many email providers such as Gmail, Hotmail, AOL etc.

Note: For more information on email settings please consult the networking guide on the CD supplied with the DVR.

PPPOE settings

PPPOE is only required if the DVR is connected direct to an ADSL modem and not to an ADSL router or existing network.

In the UK it is not common for ADSL modems to be used as most are combined with a router that will perform the PPPOE function.

These settings need to be set in accordance with the ADSL network and the modem that

is being used, for help with this consult the network administrator
