VT-EHP

NETWORK: HOW TO OBTAIN AN IP ADDRESS

One of the easiest ways to obtain an IP address for your DVR is to use the built-in DHCP feature of your DVR.

HOW TO SET UP DHCP

The purpose of DHCP is to obtain all of the network information from the connected router. In most cases, the best way to

do this is to cycle the DHCP feature, or in other words, turn it on, then off again. This will get the network information from

the router, and then by turning DHCP off in the DVR, it will lock that address to the DVR.

Using the DHCP Feature:

1) Go to your DVR’s ‘main’ menu, !System Setup!Network

2) ‘IP SETUP’ should be selected by default. To

the right, ‘DHCP’ is listed. If it is ‘checked’,

uncheck it, then select ‘Apply’ at the bottom of

the screen. You should get a pop-up indicating

the network is rebooting.(If DHCP was

unchecked, see below)

3) Once the network reboots, go back and ‘check’

DHCP and select Apply. Again, the network

will reboot.

4) Make note of your DVR’s IP address; you will

need this for port forwarding.

5) Now, go back and ‘uncheck’ DHCP; this will set your DVR’s IP address to STATIC

If DHCP is ‘unchecked’, select it, then select ‘Apply’ at the bottom of the screen. You should get a pop-up indicating the

network is rebooting. Make note of your DVR’s IP address; you will need this for port forwarding.

Now, go back and ‘uncheck’ DHCP; this will set your DVR’s IP address to STATIC.

VT-EHP

SYSTEM SETUP

NETWORK: DDNS

DDNS : When enabled, the DVR can be accessed through a Dynamic DNS server.

Commonly used if a broadband connection does not have a static IP address.

***CAUTION***

To use the DDNS function, ports 8080 and 5554 MUST be opened. (This is commonly known as port forwarding).

a. Default WEB SERVER PORT: 8080

b. Default RTSP SERVICE PORT: 5554

NOTE : The default DDNS HOST NAME is set to the MAC (Media Access Control) address.

CREATING YOUR DDNS HOSTNAME

The EHP series allows you to actually name your DVR, and access it by that name.

Steps

1) Access the DVR’s main menu by using the remote control, or by the buttons on the front of the unit

2) The Setup box will appear. Select “System Setup”

3) Select “Network”

4) Select “DDNS”

5) Make sure DDNS is turned “ON”

DVRLINK.NET CONFIGURATION

1) Make sure DDNS is turned ON

2) Highlight HOST NAME and press enter. The virtual keyboard will appear. Change the Host Name to your desired name

by removing the previous entry--you can do this by repeatedly selecting the " key. (When choosing your host name,

please don’t include any spaces or special characters). Once you have entered your desired host name, select OK.

4) Select “CHECK” under DDNS Registration to make sure the name is available.

5) Select “TEST” under DDNS Connection to make sure you have a connection to the server

6) Select APPLY at the bottom of the screen to apply your changes

7) Bring up a browser (ex. Internet Explorer), and type: http://your-ddns-hostname.dvrlink.net:8080 in the address bar.

For example: If your DDNS Host Name was Johndoesdvr, you would type: http://johndoesdvr.dvrlink.net:8080

NOTE: If you changed the webport, you will need to use that number, NOT 8080.

VT-EHP

SYSTEM SETUP

NETWORK: REMOTE ACCESS

You can remotely access your VT-EHP series DVR in the following ways:

1. The DVR’s MAC address

2. The DVR’s DDNS Host Name (by default this is set to the MAC address)

3. Your external static IP address (if you have one)

1. MAC ADDRESS

The MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to your DVR. By default, this address is listed as the DDNS Host Name.

Here is how to find your DVR’s MAC address:

1. Access the DVR’s main menu by using the remote control, or

by using the buttons on the front of the unit.

2. The Setup box will appear. Select “System Setup.”

3. Select “System.”

4. Select “System Management.”

5. Select “System Information.”

6. The MAC address will be displayed here.

7. Bring up a browser (ex. Internet Explorer), and type:

http://the-mac-address-of-your-dvr.dvrlink.net:8080 in the

address bar. For example, if your MAC address was

001155555555, you would type:

http://001155555555.dvrlink.net:8080.

NOTE: If you changed the webport, you will need to use that number, NOT 8080.

******IMPORTANT******

In order to view your DVR remotely you MUST port forward BOTH the Web Server Port (the default is 8080)

and the RTSP Service Port (the default is 5554). If you need assistance with port forwarding, please

visit our website and review our tutorial videos: http://vitekcctv.com/VideoTutorials.asp

If you need further assistance, please reference your router’s manual or contact your Network

Administrator/IT Professional.

this IP address is referred to as the LIVE, PUBLIC or OUTSIDE IP address)

Steps:

1. Bring up a browser (ex. Internet Explorer), and type: http://your.static.ip.address:8080 in the address bar.

For example, if your STATIC IP address was 10.10.10.10, you would type: http://10.10.10.10:8080

NOTE: if you changed the webport, you will need to use that number, NOT 8080.
