8.3 Remote Surveillance Capability
 Remote DVR access
The method in operating the DVR client is identical to that of the DVR server. The client
has access to all capabilities including surveillance, search, pan/tilt and set-up.
 Limits in remote DVR access
1) The remote program compresses the image data, therefore the image may not be as
clear, and can not provide real-time video due to bandwidth limitations.
2) With a modem, the user can view one frame every 3 seconds, therefore in order to
minimize the delay, the user should convert to 1x1 layout.
3) With remote pan/tilt, because of the lag in time, the user would be better off using
a faster connection.
4) The user can not remotely access the DVR server backup capability.
5) The user can not remotely reset any of the DVR server programs.
(Changing of camera type, focus, activate/non-activate, and network name)
The DVR server’s performance is affected when a client is connected.
When not in use, please end the connection.
