Network - Planet NVR-820 User Manual

The NVR comes with two video outputs (HDMI: Primary as default, VGA: Secondary as
default). You can set which to be used as primary and secondary on this page other than
setting the resolution.
You are also able to set the function to be displayed on the secondary monitor on this page.
Currently you can configure the secondary monitor to display live videos with selected
channels in desired layout, or live video in automatic sequence view.
NOTE: The NVR will reboot automatically upon change of resolution/or monitor
for the new setting to take effect or be detected.

12.1.3 Network

You need to adjust settings on this page for the device to work properly in your network. It is
critical that settings here are configured correctly based on your network configurations so that
the recorder can be administered through the local area network and cameras can be
connected from it.
By default, the recorder is set to "Auto Mode" which if there's a DHCP server in the same local
network, the NVR can obtain IP address from the DHCP server. And you can locate the NVR
by using the NVR search utility.
If there's no DHCP server in the network, and the NVR is set to "Auto Mode", it will use its own
default static IP 192.168.0.20
* The recorder can detect the presence of a DHCP server upon startup. It sets
itself to use static IP address if there is no DHCP server currently presented in the
network. Its DHCP server function is also turned on at the same time to assign IP
addresses to cameras that are later connected to the network or you can
manually turn off the DHCP server function at the bottom of this page.
