Connect to the NVR
There are various ways you can connect to the NVR and below are
the suggested methods for different network setup:
• The NVR is placed in a network with a DHCP server: Connect to
the NVR by using “NVR Search” Utility
• The NVR is placed in a network without DHCP server (or you are
connecting to it directly): Access NVR with its default IP
Use NVR Search Utility
If the NVR is placed in a corporate network or a local area network
where a DHCP server is already presented, install the “NVR Search”
utility on the CD from a computer that is on the same network and
locate the NVR with its IP address that is assigned by the top-level
DHCP server.
To begin, launch the “NVR Search” utility from the CD and proceed
with the installation:
