In the scenario shown below, the NVR is set at defaults and the Layer 3 Enhanced CCTV Switch has an
ICR encoder with three analogue camera inputs connected at positions 1, 3 and 4. Position 2 is not used.
The Closed IPTV NVR would be auto configured on consecutive ports, camera 2 would not be allocated
to port 2 which would be registered as assigned to a failed camera.

Analogue channels take precedence. If an analogue camera is present and connected then it will only
become Port Free if the channel is set to Not Connected on the Closed IP NVR configuration pages.
The de-allocated cameras are added to the Camera->Unallocated Cameras page on the NVR, which
shows a tabulated list of all unallocated cameras connected to the switch, showing all the camera details
(DNS, Auto IP Address, MAC, Classification, Channel number and Native resolution). Each camera has a
drop down list showing all 'Port Free' channels available for allocation to the video source.
Any errors in setting up the cameras can be rectified by simply disconnecting and reconnecting the
camera to the switch in whilst configuration mode, which will allow the camera to reallocate. If multiple
changes are made, it is recommended that the NVR is reset after correcting the configuration to ensure
perfect allocation.
