15. From the Main Menu, the user can click on Add IPC tab in the centre of the window. Doing so
will reveal the IP Cam Config sub-menu page below. If the IPCs are properly installed, then the
Index column and the Channel column will have the cameras listed in the same numerical order
and with corresponding IP addresses i.e. Index 1 camera will have a certain IP address allocated
by the system, and Channel 1 will have the same IP address as listed for Index 1, and so on for
camera inputs 2 to 4. Any persistent deviations from this stated pattern could mean a software
/ firmware anomaly, or a camera problem. Please contact your retailer for help if recurring
connection / communications problems between the NVR and camera(s) persist.
16. If you reach this stage, and the IP Cam Configuration is looking normal, and you are seeing clear
steady video images from all four cameras on the monitor, then you can proceed to set up the
other parameters of the NVR –recording schedules, motion detection, alarm and push
notification etc. All of these parameters are described in the main instructions, and the new
menu system is quite intuitive for the first-time user trying to set up a security camera system.
However, it is highly recommended that every security system be installed by a certified
installer. In some jurisdictions, it is mandatory for an accredited installer to have installed
security systems such as this, in a house or hall or office!
