it into DVR. It will take around 10 minutes for a 80GB hard drive and 20 minutes for a 160GB hard drive for
DVR to prepare the FAT32 format hard drive by itself automatically.

Q2. What is the highest hard drive capacity MicroJack PART II series DVR can support?
Ans: MicroJack P A RT II can support all hard drives from Maxtor and Seagate with capacities from 40GB up to

250GB (for larger capacity please contact us directly or get information from our web site

www.microjack.com.)

Some models like Western Digital hard drive will not work with MicroJack PART II DVR.

Q3. What is V_Loss (Video Loss Alarm)?
Ans: V_Loss is the alarm mode that monitors the connections of the cameras. The alarm will be triggered if any

camera loses connection to DVR.

Q4. Will my DVR record any motion that occurs during any time other than my REC schedule?
Ans: Yes. Once your cameras are

in any alarm mode, your DVR will automatically record any motion even if it is not

in the REC schedule.

Q5. How long will my DVR record, if the motion occurs during any time other than my REC schedule?
Ans: The entire motion and 01-60 seconds after the motion occurs. The recording time after the motion occurs can

be adjusted in Alarm REC under Display/Record.

Q6. Can I search for a recorded file via the index of date/time or alarm log?
Ans.: Yes. You can easily playback the recorded video by searching the index of date, time or alarm on the unit or

via the off-line player in your PC.

Q7. Will my DVR keep recording during Playback mode?
Ans: No. But please note that once REC Resume is on, the system will automatically return to live record mode

after 5 minutes of inaction during Playback mode.

Q8. How can I get a video clip from MicroJack PART II series DVR?
Ans.:

1. Connect the video tape recorder to the monitor output.

2. Playback PART II by skipping to the time you need.

3. Record the video clip you need on the video tape recorder.

Q9. Why is my USB 2.0/IDE external converter not working properly?
Ans.: Only WIN XP and WIN 2000 support USB2.0, and you need to update service pack or patch file from

Windows Update. For more information, please visit

http://support.microsoft.com

Q10. Why VMD (video motion detection) will NOT work when I’ve set “Motion” ON already?
Ans.: In addition in turning on “Motion”, you have to setup at least one (1) motion area to ENABLE the VMD.

Appendix A: Network Setup

Part II network information:

- IP addressable, supports fixed IP address.

- Supports fast Ethernet (RJ-45) connection

- The default TCP port on the MicroJack DVR is 1220 and UDP 1350.

Example 1:

ADSL/Cable Modem  Router  MicroJack PART II

The Broadband Router, which lets you connect to your wired-Ethernet devices and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or
DSL Internet connection to MicroJack PART II and your local network. (We are using LinkSys router for example)

Step 1 Get your DNS settings (You need a client computer connected to network and to set up
your router):

Step 1.1 Go to your desktop and double click on the Internet Explorer icon (On Windows XP
Internet Explorer is located on the "Start Menu")

Step 1.2 In the "Address" field type in

http://192.168.1.1/Status.htm and click Go

Step 1.3 The "Enter Network Password" box will appear.

- 30 -

MicroJack Part II DVR 4CH/8CH/16CH User’s Manual

Step 1.4 Skip user name and type admin (admin is the default password) as the password, and
click OK

Step 1.5 You should now be in the "Status" section of the router. Scroll down and you will see a
section called DNS.

Please make note of all the numbers in the DNS section.

Remember, the purpose of these steps is to find out what your DNS server addresses are.

Step 2 Set up a static IP in MicroJack PART II:

Step 2.1 Go to your MicroJack PART II network setting (MAIN (OSD) Internet)

Step 2.2 Choose the IP Address tab. Select Specify an IP Address, and input:

- IP Address: 192.168.1.4 (Please note that this number must be unique for each computer you
use this procedure for.)

- Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (Usually this IP address is the same as your router IP)

- Sub Mask: 255.255.255.0 (This number need to be the same with the other computer
settings)

Part 2

Installation guide on how to setup PART II behind a LinkSys router.
To setup your router:

Step 3: (Configure the LinkSys):

You will need to setup what is called "Port Forwarding" on the LinkSys. Normally, the LinkSys
blocks all incoming traffic. Port Forwarding, once enabled, allows people on the Internet to have
access to computers
on your LAN (computers behind the LinkSys) by means of a specific port number or range of
port numbers. The standard port number for MicroJack is 6716.

Step 3.1 Connect to the web administration interface on the LinkSys.
This is usually

http://192.168.1.1

Step 3.2 Enter your password. Default is “admin” and leave the username blank.

Step 3.3 Click on the "Advanced" tab at the top and then the "Forwarding" tab.

Step 3.4 Enter port 1220 Protocol TCP & port 1350 Protocol UDP. (In my previous step,
I had set my IP address to 192.168.1.4)

Appendix C: DDNS Solution

DDNS stands for Dynamic Domain Name Service; it is a simple way to attach a static host
name to a dynamic IP address. It also simplifies your IP addresses into easy-to-remember and
meaningful domain names.

MicroJack Part II DVR does not have DDNS function built in at this moment. However, we can
find other solutions to fulfill our users’ need for DDNS.

Solution 1: PC acts as IP-reporter in the same LAN as the DVR.

Most of the DDNS run IP-report programs to signal the DDNS server about the IP changes.
Since MicroJack Part II DVR runs in a real-time embedded OS, which is different from the
ordinary OS like Windows, these IP-report programs cannot be installed on the DVR. If the DVR
is running within a LAN (local area network) and there are other computers within the same
LAN as well, one of the other computers can act as the IP-reporter. Then we can apply port
forwarding to allow the router to direct the traffic to the DVR. In this way we can use DDNS to
access the DVR.

to different scenarios)

Appendix C: DDNS Solution

Step1: Obtain your DDNS from a DDNS provider. (E.g. www.123dss.com)

Step2: Set up the DDNS reporter program in one of the computers within the same network as

the DVR, this computer is going to act as the IP reporter.

Step3: Set up the Network information in the DVR (Please refer to Step1 and 2 in the Appendix
A Network Setup Example1)

Step4: Use Port Forwarding to direct the traffic from the router to the DVR. (Please refer to
Step3 in the Network Setup Example1)

Solution 2: Use the DDNS function inside the router and connect the DVR to this router.

A lot of routers have the DDNS function built in. Customers can choose to use this
function instead of using an IP-reporter computer solution. This solution uses less
resources but it requires more network knowledge to set up.

Step1: Purchase a router with DDNS function built in or check your current router to see

whether it supports DDNS function. (We have tested the D-Link DI-604 router and this can
support the DDNS function)

Step2: Obtain DDNS that your router can support from a DDNS provider. (For our tested router
D-Link DI-604, we found the DDNS from www.dyndns.com is comp atible with the D-Link DI-604
router)

Step3: Set up the network for both the router and the DVR (please refer to Appendix A
Example1)

Step4: Set up DDNS function in the router setting (please refer to D-Link and www.dyndns.com
online FAQ or how to set up DDNS parameters.)
