4.4 Adding a channel
4.4.1 Console operation
To start configuration, you need to get basic understanding about how the console is operated after login.
You may read the first page of "Operation" section before you proceed with this page.
4.4.2 Adding a channel
Right-click on the empty area of the user tree panel, and then click "New Channel…"
Following dialog box will appear.
This is an integrated dialog with everything about channel configuration; camera setup, video setup,
schedule recording setup, PTZ setup. Navigate through the tree nodes to change the items to be
configured.
Enter the channel name, IP address, etc information.
Note: "Channel name" is an important signature of a channel and therefore cannot be changed after it's
created. Nor can it be duplicated with other channels. You should choose the channel name carefully, as it
associates all configuration and storage information with that channel. If you expect a more user-friendly
description, you can use the "Description" field for the purpose.
