1) Background Introduction

Device IP is not fixed if you use ADSL to login the network. The DDNS function allows you to

access the NVR via the registered domain name. Besides the general DDNS, the quick DDNS

works with the device from the manufacturer so that it can add the extension function.

2) Function Introduction

The quick DDNS client has the same function as other DDNS client end. It realizes the bonding of

the domain name and the IP address. Right now, current DDNS server is for our own devices only.

You need to refresh the bonding relationship of the domain and the IP regularly. There is no user

name, password or the ID registration on the server. At the same time, each device has a default

domain name (Generated by MAC address) for your option. You can also use customized valid

domain name (has not registered.).

3) Operation

6 Web Operation

6.1 General Introduction

The device web provides channel monitor menu tree, search, alarm setup, system setup, PTZ

control and monitor window.

Important

The following operation is based on 16-channel series device. For the 32-channel series

product, there is 32-channel option.

6.1.1 Preparation

Before log in, please make sure:

z Network connection is right

z NVR and PC network setup is right. Please refer to network setup(main

z menu->setting->network)

z Use order ping ***.***.***.***(* NVR IP address) to check connection is OK or not. Usually the

return TTL value should be less than 255.

z Open the IE and then input NVR IP address.

z System can automatically download latest web control and the new version can overwrite the

previous one.

z 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.

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 4.6.11). 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 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.

6.1.2 Log in

Open the IE and then input the NVR IP address in the address column.

For example, if your NVR IP address is 192.168.1.108, then please input http:// 192.168.1.108 in

IE address column. See Figure 6-1.
