Before configuring IP cameras, please ensure that all IP cameras are connected to the
same network as your DVR and that the network settings for your DVR are correctly set
(See Configuring Network Settings). If the IP cameras are not on the same LAN, please
make sure the server port and RTSP port in the IP cameras are different from each other,
and the port mapping has been properly configured.
To configure IP cameras:
1. Enter the Camera Management menu, shown below by clicking Menu > Setting >
Camera.
2. Determine number of analogue channels to disable. Please note that in order to add
more than 8 channels of 4CIF IP cameras or 4 channels of 720P/UXGA IP cameras, you
will need to disable some analogue channels. Disabling one analogue channel will extend
one channel of 4CIF IP camera. Disabling two channels of analogue cameras will extend
one channel for 720P/UXGA IP camera.
3. To disable analogue channels, click the Status button to enter the Camera Enabled
Status menu, shown below. Uncheck checkboxes to disable corresponding channels.
