4.4 System connections
The NVR series is designed primarily for network recording on a Local Area Network
(LAN). Performance while recording cameras which are connected with router/DSL lines
via a WAN or the Internet will be highly dependent on network bandwidth and reliability.
For full performance it is recommended to install a separate network for the IP video
security system. In addition, the LAN connection between network switch and NVR
should support Gigabit network transmission.
The following figure shows a typical installation:

5 System Setup
5.1 First Time System Start
With factory default user settings the NVR will boot automatically and start the NVR software
application without requiring Windows Login and Application login.
The NVR should start immediately after power is applied. If necessary, push the front power
switch to start the NVR. By default, the NVR application starts with administrator user rights
level. With these settings the NVR will also enter the record mode in case of a restart after
power loss. For setup of user accounts including passwords please refer to Chapter 5.4.6
"User Account Settings". The default login is admin with no password
5.2 Main Console screen controls
After start-up the main screen will appear:

5.3 Quick Start Setup
This chapter describes the minimum installation steps to install IP-cameras for standard
(continuous) recording.
Note: This quick start setup is based on the premise that all IP cameras in the system are
installed in the same network and IP-address range as the NVR. The default IP setting of the NVR is DHCP mode. If there is no DHCP host on the LAN, a static IP
configuration must be assigned using Windows.
1. Register your camera license serial number(s) (Internet connection required; for
alternate methods see Appendix 9 Online License Procedures.)
A. Open “License Manager” Tool. Click CONFIG -> License Manager
B. Select “On line” as Activate type.
C. Input the “SN (Serial number)”, and then click on “Activate” button.
D. Main Console will be restarted if activated successfully.

9.1 Overview
Since version 3.2, main console activates itself using online licenses. An Online license is
a serial number or file containing a list of serial numbers which can activate main console
for use.
A serial number is a 16-hexadecimal-digit string, e.g. 6F40-002D-BD7C-ACDC, which
can activate main console. Each serial number represents the number of channels
granted. Multiple serial numbers can be installed on one single machine to have various
combinations.
When you purchase NVR camera licenses, you will be given a set of serial numbers,
depending on how many you purchase. You type in the serial numbers, and main
console will send them to the license server for verification*. After the serial numbers are
verified, you can start to add cameras and start video management. Before 3.2,
activation is made using a physical USB key called dongle. Using online license requires
no more physical pieces to be inserted to your computers.
* Internet access is HIGHLY recommended for the duration of this process even if you intend to deploy your NVR on an
isolated LAN.
88 of 115
ENVS800 / ENVS1600 / ENVS3200 Installation Manual
9.2 Rationale
Using online license can resolve several issues such as...
No more DOA/RMA issues because of hardware failure: If something is wrong with
your license, EverFocus can check the license status for you and have it fixed online.
No more hardware compatibility issues: Online license is just a set of hexadecimal
strings. No physical device can cause any hardware incompatibility.
Faster shipping process and less shipping cost: Online licenses can be issued via
email, and no physical device need be shipped; or, you may purchase a physical S/N
document via your local distributor.
9.3 Activation
Activation falls in two types: online and offline. Online means that
you activate your NVR when it is connected to the internet. Offline means that that you
activate your NVR, though it has no internet access; another Internet connected
computer IS required for this process.
9.3.1 Activate by inputting serial number (SN)
The serial number for IP camera licenses is included in the package that you purchased.

example) a request file from the NVR machine to the proxy and use the proxy PC to

license server issues a license file to the proxy PC. You copy the license file (via USB
drive, for example) from the proxy PC to your NVR machine to make the NVR work.
