Channel: Select the channel.
Stream: There are two types to identify different streams you have set.
Resolution: The camera supports multiple types in the channel, For example: 2K,3M,1080P, 720P,
VGA. The higher the resolution is, the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger
too, and it will take up more bandwidth. (Different models support different specific types. )
Bit Rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate
configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and
bit rate is large, that will lead to video can not play well.
Frame Rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. When the video format is 50Hz,
the maximum frame rate is 25 fps. When the video format is 60Hz, the maximum frame rate is 30 fps.
You should lower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15,
you can achieve fluently video.

Appendix

5.1 HDD Capacity Calculation

This chapter describes how to determine the size of the HDD you need when you install the NVR for
the first time.
The NVR adopts the MPEG4/H.264 compression technology and its dynamic range is large.
Therefore, the capacity of the HDD depends on the estimated size of files generated in each channel
every hour according to code streams.
Computational formula of HDD Capacity:
Whole HDD Capacity(M)= number of the channels * time in need (hour) * spent of HDD Capacity per
hour (MB/hour)
The meanings of parameters are as follows:
Spent of HDD Capacity per hour(M/hour) =
You can obtain the Bit Rate by using the following methods:
view the value of the Bit Rate.
[Example]
If you select 4M for the bit rate and select four channels for recording and one week of recording is
needed, you can calculate the HDD capacity by using the following formula:
Recording time(hour) =7days*24 hours=168 hour
Spent of HDD Capacity per hour(M/hour)=

5.3 FAQ

1. No image displayed on the monitor after starting up normally.
Please check the input mode of the monitor matches with the output mode of the device (e.g. if the
output mode of NVR is HD-OUT output, then the input mode of monitor must be the HD-OUT input).
And if not, please modify the input mode of monitor.
2. No record file found in the NVR local HDD, and prompt "No record file found".
Choose Menu > Settings > General in the GUI interface, and verify the time is correct.
Choose Menu > Playback in the GUI interface, and verify the channel and time are correct.
Choose Menu > About > HDD Info in the GUI interface, view the HDD status.
3. Why recording is not performed after motion detection is enabled?
On the "Motion Detection" page, check whether the following are correctly set:
4. The screen of the display is incomplete.
Confirm the current resolution and check the resolution supported by the display. If the resolution is
1920*1080, the display needs to support the resolution 1920*1080.
5. Why can't video files be downloaded during video playback or downloaded files cannot be
played back properly?
To save consumed resources, the server limits concurrency of video playback and file download. In this
case, stop video playback and then download files or play back videos after video files are downloaded.
