Configuring the network settings

The following procedure shows how to change the recording settings of a selected camera in the
Recording menu. They can be changed in any order.
In the main menu go to the Network menu icon and press Enter or left-click the mouse. The Network
menu appears.
Caution: The DVSR xU will automatically reboot when any network parameter is changed and saved.
To save changes made in the menu
1. When you have made all the changes required in the Network menu, go to OK and press Enter or
left-click the mouse to save all the changes. To abort the changes, select Cancel and press Enter.
You will then return to the main menu.
Note: Selecting OK in submenus confirms but does not save the changes made. Changes are only saved
when OK is selected in the Network menu.
To change the IP address value
1. In the Network menu go to the IP edit box and press EDIT or left-click the mouse. Using the
numeric buttons enter the IP address. Press Enter or left-click to the mouse to accept the
changes.
The DVSR xU will use a DHCP server to find a dynamic IP address when IP 0.0.0.0 is used. If the
DVSR xU uses a PPPoE function, the unit dials-up the internet and displays the dynamic Internet IP
address.
To change the SubNet mask value
1. In the Network menu go to the Subnet edit box and press EDIT or left-click the mouse. Using the
numeric buttons enter the sub net mask number. Press Enter or left-click the mouse to accept the
changes.
To change the Gateway IP value
1. In the Network menu go to the Gateway edit box and press EDIT or left-click the mouse. Using the
number buttons enter the gateway IP number to communicate with different network segments.
Press Enter or left-click the mouse to accept the changes..
To change the DNS address value
If DVSR uses a PPPoE function, the DVSR xU can get a dynamic IP address. If you set DNS IP with a
fixed Internet IP, DVSR xU will send information such as its name, serial number, and current IP to that
fixed IP address. When seeking the DVSR xU name of a unit, the DVSR xU will automatically provide
you with its dynamic IP address.
