Appendix A FAQ

Q1. Why can’t I find the HDD?

a. Please check the power and SATA data cables of the HDD to make sure they are well
connected.
b. For some NVRs with the 1U or small 1U case, the power of the adapter may be not
enough for operating them. Please use the power adaptor supplied along with the NVR.
c. Please make sure the HDDs are compatible with the NVR. See Appendix C Compatible
Device List for details.
d. The HDD could have gone bad. install a new one.

Q2. Why are there no images in some or all of the camera windows?

a. Please make sure the resolutions of the cameras are supported by the NVR.
b. Please make sure the network cables of the IP camera and NVR are both connected
properly and the network parameters are set correctly.
c. Please make sure the network and the switch both work normally.

Q3. The monitor has no image after turning on the NVR.

a. Please make sure the monitor, HDMI or VGA cables are good and well connected.
b. Please make sure the monitor supports the resolution of 1280*1024, 1920*1080 or
3840*2160 (4K*2K). The NVR cannot self adapt to the monitor of which the resolution is
lower than 1280*1024, the monitor will remind you that the screen resolution is not supported
by the NVR or just have no display. Please change the monitor to 1280*1024, 1920*1080 or
3840*2160 resolution before turning on the NVR.

Q4. Forget the passwords?

a. The password of the super administrator admin can be reset through “Edit Security
Question” function.

Click “Edit Security Question” button in the login window and then enter the corresponding
answer of the selected question in the popup window, the password of admin will be reset to
123456 by default. If you forget the answer of the question, this way will be invalid, please
contact your dealer for help.

b. The passwords of other users can be reset by the super administrator admin, please refer to

10.1.2 Edit User for details.

Q5. The NVR will not hold the maximum number of IP cameras?

Take the 16 CH NVR as an example. Some 16 CH NVR support a maximum of 120Mbps
bandwidth input. Refer to the picture below. The remaining bandwidth should be larger than
the bandwidth of the IP camera you want to add, or it would fail to add the IP camera. You
should lower the added cameras’ bitrate to release the bandwidth. It is recommended to add
cameras by “Quickly Add” for batch adding.

Transcendent NVR Series

92

Q6. The IP camera which connects to the PoE port of the NVR cannot be displayed
automatically in the camera list, why?

a. Please check whether the resource of the PoE port is occupied by another IP camera that is
added through network.

l Take the 16 CH NVR with 8 PoE ports as an example. The resource distribution of the 16

CH IP cameras is shown in the picture below.

When you add IP cameras through network, the IP cameras will occupy the resource from CH1,
CH2, CH3, CH4… by the adding sequence; if you directly connect the IP cameras to the PoE
ports of the NVR, the IP cameras will occupy the resource from CH9 to CH16 according to the
number of the PoE port each IP camera is connecting to.
Supposing that 12 CH IP cameras have been added to the NVR through network and no IP
camera has been directly connected to the PoE port. The 12 CH IP cameras occupy the 8
network resources from CH1 to CH8 and 4 PoE resources from CH9 to CH12 which are
supposed to be occupied by connecting the IP cameras directly. In this situation, if you directly
connect one IP camera to PoE5, PoE6, PoE7 or PoE8, the IP camera will be displayed in the
camera list automatically; if you connect it to PoE1, PoE2, PoE3 or PoE4, it won’t be displayed
in the camera list by showing resource conflict; if you just need to connect it to PoE1, PoE2,
PoE3 or PoE4, you should first delete the IP camera which occupies the PoE port resource and
then reconnect it to the PoE port.

l Take the 8 CH NVR with 8 PoE ports as another example. The resource distribution of the

8 CH IP cameras is shown in the picture below and the adding rules of the IP cameras are
similar to the rules mentioned in the above. Please refer to the above for details.

The internal Ethernet port and the IP camera which directly connects to the PoE port through

Transcendent NVR Series

93

ONVIF protocol should be in the same network segment, or it will fail to add the IP camera.
Log into the IP camera’s web client and then enable DHCP (obtain an IP address
automatically); or manually change the IP address of the IP camera to make it in the same
network segment with the internal Ethernet port.
b. Check whether the number of the added IP camera is the maximum.
If the number of the added IP camera is the maximum, the system will show you the message
that the IP camera number is beyond the maximum when you directly connect another IP
camera to the available PoE port and thus you will fail to add the IP camera.

Q7. The IP camera which directly connects to the PoE port of the NVR through ONVIF
protocol is shown in the camera list, but there is no image output, why?

Please make sure the username and password of the IP camera are correct. The IP camera’s
username and password can be modified through the two ways mentioned below.
① Click “Edit Camera” in the Camera module of the setup panel to go to the interface as

shown below. Click to modify the username and password of the IP camera (input the
correct username and password of the IP camera in the popup window and then click “OK”
button).

② Go to the live preview interface and then click in the preview window of the IP
camera to edit the IP camera’s username and password.

Q8. The system cannot record, why?

Transcendent NVR Series

94

a. Make sure the HDD was formatted prior to use.
b. The record schedule has not been set in manual record mode. Please refer to 7.3.2 Record
Schedule Configuration for details.
c. HDD is full and thus the NVR is not able to record. Check HDD information from Disk
Management and if required, please enable the recycle function (please see 7.1.2 Advanced
