INSTALLATION
Camera Mounting
[Camera Bracket Adjustment]
To adjust an axis of the camera head, please loosen a cross head screw.
The VMAXIP includes 4, 2.1MP Bullet cameras, especially engineered to work with the
NVR. The cameras can be powered directly from the NVR.
To mount the camera:
1. Use the camera's mounting template or the camera's housing to mark the drilling
holes in the mounting surface.
2. Drill holes into the drywall using the included dry wall anchors.
3. Pull wires through and make connections, then mount the camera to the wall or ceiling
using the screws provided with the camera.
4. To adjust the camera's bracket, loosen the screw on the side of the camera's bracket
before mounting the camera.
5. Once the camera's bracket angle has been adjusted, tighten the stopper screw back to
secure the camera in its position.
Camera Connection
[Connection with Hub, Router or Switch]
1. Connect the network camera to the NVR, using a hub, a router or switch.
2. If the camera is connected to the NVR through the hub, router or switch,
each camera adapter is required additionally to get the power.
[Connection without Hub, Router or Switch]
1. Connect the network camera directly to the PoE port of the NVR.
2. In this case, the PoE adapter should be plugged-in to the NVR in order to get the power.
There are two ways to connect the cameras to the NVR, using a router or hub switch,
or connecting the cameras directly to the NVR.
INSTALLATION
NVR Installation Tips:
1. Make sure the cameras and the monitors are properly connected to the NVR.
2. The NVR should be placed in a dust and moisture free environment.
It must never be exposed to direct sunlight. Server room temperature is highly
recommended to reduce the chance of overheating. Overheating may cause
the NVR to become unstable.
3. During the boot process, the NVR should not be interrupted by pressing any
buttons on the mouse, or remote controller. Do not unplug the
power adapter or turn the NVR o during the boot process.
4. A UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) is highly recommended to prevent
of the NVR during a power outage.
QUICK SETUP WIZARD
The Quick Startup Wizard is designed to make the installation process of your NVR as
quick and easy as possible. This startup wizard will automatically appear when you
rst boot up your NVR. It will guide you through setting up
the NVR's Network Settings and nding and registering your cameras.
If you do not want to follow the Startup Wizard you can disable it by clicking the
[CANCEL] button and adjusting your settings manually via the NVR's main menu.
Step 1: Network Configuration
The Network Setup menu allows you to con gure the NVR's network settings
for remote connection. You can access this setup menu anytime by right-clicking
anywhere on the screen and selecting: Setup Menu > Network > Network.
To setup the NVR's network settings:
1. Set "Network Type" to [Dynamic IP] and click [IP DETECT]. The NVR will automatically
con gure its settings to match your network's requirement. when all information is
detected, you can change the Network Type to Static. This will save all the correct
network settings and the IP address will not be changed by the network
(on DHCP networks).
2. You can also set the Network Type to Static and manually enter the NVR's information.
a. IP Address: the NVR's address in the local network.
b. Subnet Mask: usually 255.255.255.xxx
c. Gateway: your router's external IP address.
d. DNS Server 1 and 2: quired if connecting to the DVR over the Internet.
e. Switch Setting: if the camera's are connected directly to the NVR, this is the internal
IP address settings for those cameras.
f. TCP/IP and Web Port: default values are 9010 and 80, respectively. These ports need
to be opened in your router to connect to your NVR over the Internet. See your
Network Administrator for more information.
3. Enable UPnP and Auto Private IP Setup if these features are supported by your network.
4. To connect to the NVR remotely, open an Internet explorer page and enter your
router's external IP address:DVR's port number (Example: 72.243.193.215:81). If you
are accessing the NVR over the Internet, make sure the ports are properly setup in your
router. See your Network Administrator for more information.
