IP Camera Hidden
Enabling this function will hide the camera from view in the Live screen.
The camera footage will continue to be saved to the recorder and can
be accessed by users with the proper privilege level.
Enable PnP
Use this function to enable Plug ‘n’ Play (PnP). Setting this to On allows
the recorder to recognize the camera and begin recording video
immediately without manually entering an IP address for each camera.
If PnP is On, the cameras are reset to their default settings. If you have
custom camera settings, set Enable PnP to Off.
Note Enable PnP will only function with AvertX cameras.
Device Search
If you set Enable PnP to Off, you will need to manually enter the IP
addresses of the cameras on your system. Click Device Search to view
the brand, model, and IP address of each camera on your network.
Write this information down for later use. Click on a camera to select it
for the current camera channel.
Hostname/IP
Click Hostname/IP and type the IP Address of your camera if it is not
already entered. This is only necessary if Enable PnP is set to Off.
Model
To specify the make of the camera you are configuring, you must first
deactivate the camera by clicking Activated and selecting Off. You can

AvertX camera, but is ONVIF compliant). Once you have selected your
model, turn your camera back on by click Activated and selecting Yes.
