CONTROL
Operations possible with PC control Network settings
z Menu settings, recording, playback, and other similar
operations will be possible from the PC screen.
z Up to a maximum of four PCs can be simultaneously
connected to a single DVR (Digital Video Recorder).
(Example)
z Users with user level ID1: 3 PCs
z Users with user level ID2 or ID3: 1 PC
z Control of the DVR can be freely switched from the unit
itself to the PC and vice versa. Note that operation of
the unit will not be affected by simply connecting a
cable.
z In order to provide security for computer control, three
types of password are set in accordance with the
different user levels, and this ensures that three
different levels of restrictions can be introduced for
operations. (JP. 23)
z When this unit is being used while connected to a
network, network settings must be made on the unit
itself. See INSTRUCTION MANUAL “Network settings”
for more details.
z TCP/IP settings must be made on the connected PCs
and in accordance with the operating system (OS)
being used on each.
z When a pre-existing network is being used, a check
must be carried out by that network’s administrator to
confirm that IP addresses do not coincide with other IP
addresses already in use.
Saving and playing back sound
z The dedicated application DVR Viewer (Ver. 1.5 or
later) must be installed on the system in order to store
or playback audio on a networked PC or to playback
sound-containing video that has been stored on a PC,
CompactFlash card, or the like.
Please download this software from our homepage (see
below).

2 PREPARING FOR NETWORK CONTROL
Controlling from a PC
1 Launch the PC’s web browser.
Internet Explorer versions 5.0 and later are supported.
In terms of OS, Windows 98, 98SE, Me, NT4.0, 2000, and
XP are supported.
z If the Java Script run-time error message is displayed
while Internet Explorer is being used, modify that
application’s settings as follows:
(1) Select menus in the sequence [Tools] → [Internet
Options] → [Advanced].
(2) Uncheck “Display a notification about every script
error” from the “Advanced” screen, and check “Disable
script debugging”.
3 Enter a password (for verification
purposes).
Enter a [User name] and a verification-use [Password] on
the [Connect to 192.168.0.1] screen, and then click [OK].
If you entered an incorrect password, the password entry
screen will appear once again and you will be prompted to
re-input the password.
z Passwords should be setup in advance for the
hardware environment's different user levels. At the
time of purchase, the password settings (i.e., user
name and password) will be as described on P. 23.
z If you save the [User name] and [Password] that have
been entered, verification will be carried out
automatically on subsequent occasions, and they will
not need to be entered again. Note, however, that it
may not be possible to save a password other than that
used for the default connection.
z Up to four PCs can be connected simultaneously to a
single DVR. Note, however, that users with user level
ID2 or ID3 are restricted to use of one PC.
2 Enter the URL.
Enter the unit’s URL in the browser’s address bar and then
press [Enter]. (Note that the URL should contain the IP
address specified using the unit’s network settings.)
To start, enter “http://192.168.0.1/” as the default setting.
z If a value other than “80” is set as the default port value,
enter a colon (:) and then the port number after the IP
address.
For example, if the port number was set as “81”, you
should enter
http://192.168.0.1:81/
z If no web browser is installed on the PC, Internet
Explorer must be installed before proceeding.
z When four PCs are connected and access is made from
a different PC using the highest user level, the mostrecent user of a lower level to have accessed the unit
will be automatically disconnected and priority will be
given to the upper-level user.
An error message will appear on the disconnected
user’s PC. (JP. 7)
z When [Cancel] is clicked after repeated input of an
incorrect password, the authentication error message
will be displayed.
z Even if computer control is being carried out, clicking a
button for which you do not have authorization will
result in the password input screen being displayed to
verify allocation of the required user level.
z In the case of certain PC performance levels and
specifications, a portion of the video may not be
displayed. If this is the case, go to [Tools]→ [Internet
Options] → [Temporary Internet Files] → [Settings] in
Internet Explorer, and then reduce “Amount of disk
space to use”.
