About This User’s Guide

Before operating the unit, please read this user’s guide thoroughly and retain it for future reference.

Cautions

This symbol indicates the presence of important operating and maintenance

(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

This symbol indicates the presence of “dangerous voltage” within the product’s

Setup Items

Default

Description

Network Type

DHCP

The IP Camera must act as a DHCP client for the “Plug and Play”.

Encoding Type

CBR

The “CBR” is recommended because of the internal buffer design of the NS Series

Resolution

1280x720

The maximum performance of the N16NS/NSP is 1080p@192fps or 720p@400fps. To get higher frame rates per channel, 1280x720 is the recommended resolution.

Frame Rate

25fps

The maximum performance of the N16NS/NSP is 720p@400fps. Therefore 25fps per channel is recommended. (25fps x 16 = 400fps)

Bit Rate

2Mbps

The maximum throughput of the N16NS/NSP is 40Mbps. Therefore 2Mbps per channel is recommended. (2Mbps x 16 = 32Mbps)

Sub Stream

CIF 512Kbps

For “Dual Streaming”, the sub stream should be turned on. And for the proper streaming through the WAN connection, CIF@512Kbps or lower bitrates per channel is recommended.

able 2.5.1. Factory Default of the IP Camera

The following IP Camera settings are recommended for optimal connection with the NS Series

 The NSP Series features a "Plug and Play" function with a PoE Switch.  The “Plug and Play” functionality requires the IP Camera to be in DHCP mode.  The NS automatically assigns an IP Address to the IP Camera. (10.20.30.11 ~ 10.20.30.254)  The NSP models will automatically map the camera on the PoE Port to the corresponding NVR

channel number.

 The NSP PoE Port maximum power consumption [N4NSP – 48Watt, N8/16NSP – 96W]  The NSF PoE Port Maximum power consumption [N16NSF – 200W]

Figure 2.5.1.2. Incorrect connection with the PoE Ports

With the NSP Models, it is prohibited to connect a router to the POE Ports to connect the IP

Camera, the NSP will not be able to find and connect to the camera. The LAN Port can be connected to a router, but not the PoE Ports.

 The NS Series features a "Plug and Play" function (on board PoE Switch not included).  Setting up cameras can be done through the EZ CAMERA menu, refer to Figure 2.4.1.

Figure 2.6.1.2. Improper connection of the NS (Non PoE switch).

2-7 . IP Camera SETUP (through Web Viewer page)

NS / NSP Series allow remote access to the IP Cameras through an "IP Camera Setup" menu. The PC Web Client features the "IP Camera Setup" menu that can be accessed remotely.
