Please read theentire instruction manual before use and save it for future reference. Wereserve theright for any
errors in text or images and for making any necessary technical changes to this document. Ifyou should have
any questions concerning technical problems please contact our Customer Services.
Important details:
• The use of surveillance cameras in public areas is regulated by theData Protection Act 1998 and requires
thepermission of your local authority. Theuse of camera surveillance on private property is also regulated
by theData Protection Act. Nopermission is required from thelocal authority, but those monitored must be
informed that they are under surveillance. TheInformation Commissioner’s Office has compiled aCode of
Practice governing theuse of security cameras. Forfurther information visit www.ico.gov.uk.
• If you have afirewall / router you must configure your computer router settings and router port settings
(see your router user guide) to enable image display and manoeuvring of theDVR system from acomputer
outside your local area network.
• In order to connect to acomputer on your local area network, you will need to enter theDVR’s IP address
in Internet Explorer’s address field. Ifanexternal display screen is connected, you will be able to see
theaddress under Main menu-System-Network. TheIP address should also be found using therouter’s
software. Therouter will allocate theDVR system anIP address.

1 and 2 is prioritised, giving them better
picture quality. Theother channels share
theremainder of theprocessor capacity,
giving them poorer picture quality.
- Average decode: Theprocessor capacity is
shared equally, giving equal picture quality to
all channels.
- Full decode: Allmaterial is decoded (every frame
is played back at maximum picture quality).
Thiscan slow down theplayback speed.
• Sync Mode: Playback on all channels follows
thesame timeline. Thisfunction is primarily used
with Full decode since thechannels with better
resolution (channels 1 and 2) would otherwise lag
behind theothers.

numerals.
• Time Format: 24 or 12 hour time format.

react when no there is no more storage capacity.
Overwrite (write over old material) or Stop Record
(stop recording).

6.3.2 Encode
Set parameters for video and audio coding. Theleft
column controls theseparate channels’ image quality.
Theright column is asub-stream, amirrored stream
of images to save bandwidth when monitoring from
external computers or mobile phones.
6.3.3 Network
Set network parameters, IP addresses, gateway,
http,etc.
• Channel: Channel setting, 1–8 orall.
• Compression: Theonly video coding format you can
select is H.264 and Extra Stream 1 in sub-stream.
• Resolution: Channel 1 and 2 can use all
accessible resolutions from thelowest QCIF
(176×144) to CIF (352×288), HD1 (704×288)
and thehighest D1 (704×576). Cameras using
thehighest resolution should therefore be
connected to channel 1 and 2. Thesub-stream
resolution for channel 1 and 2 is QCIF (176×144)
and CIF (352×288).
• Frame Rate (FPS): 1–25 frames per second.
• Bit Rate Type: VBR (variable bitrate) or CBR
(constant bitrate). VBR adapts therecording to
maximise hard disk space. CBR is used to set
afixed bit rate which can be adapted to suit
theprevailing conditions, bandwidth and hard disk
space, etc. Settings are made in Bit Rate (kB/s).
• Quality: Settheimage quality if VBR is selected above.
• Bit Rate (kbit/s): SeeBit Rate Typeabove.
• I-Frame Interval:
A high value provides more consistency in
theimage during playback.
A low value requires fewer system resources,
which is preferable for transfers via Extra Stream.
ExtraStream is used when streaming via
anetwork to amobile phone for example.
Too high avalue could result in thesystem
resources being inadequate to display images
inrealtime.
Note: TheI-Frame Interval settings also influence
theDecode settings in Play Mode (Record-
Playback-Search Condition (magnifying glass)).
• Video/Audio: Activate and deactivate Video and
Audio from thesettings above.
• Net Card: Selectanetwork card.
• DHCP Enable: Isactivated from thefactory.
• IP Address: SettheIP address manually when
DHCP is not active. Default: 192.168.1.10.
• Subnet Mask: Setthis manually when DHCP is
not active. Default: 255.255.255.0.
• Gateway: Setthis manually when DHCP is not
active. Default: 192.168.1.1.
• Primary DNS: Ifnecessary, specify theIP number
of theprimary DNS server.
• Secondary DNS: Ifnecessary, specify theIP
number of thesecondary DNS server.
• Media Port: TCP-port. Default: 34567. Inorder
to be able to view images from thesurveillance
system outside your local network, such as on
your mobile phone, you might need to reset
theport controls on your router. MediaPort
enables you to change theport number in
theDVR.
• HTTP-port: Default: 80.
• HS-Download: Prioritises thetransfer rate from
theDVR to theconnected client.
• Transfer Policy: Setting for theprioritisation of
thefile transfer. Adaptive: Adaptsthequality
and speed to suit theprevailing conditions.
QualityPreferred: Prioritises quality.
FluencyPreferred: Prioritises speed.
