address of the searched device by checking the device and clicking “Setup” button.
Fig 4-2 Search Devices
Note: If the network of IP cameras and NVR are in LAN, their IP address must be in the same
network segment. For example: If the IP address of NVR is 192.168.013.057, the IP address of IP
camera must be 192.168.013.XXX.
Step 3: Choose the searched devices and click “OK” button to add these devices. The added cameras will
