The default is 80. *Command Port: It is the first entry port for communication between the web client and the device, which is mainly used for controlling log-in, log-out, real-time preview, remote playback, and remote download, etc.
*Media Port: It is for media stream transmitting including real-time stream, voice stream and file stream etc. *DDNS: Click 【Ü】, the DDNS setup screen will appear. Select a DDNS server and type in the DDNS address, user name and password. You can set these up with the company that runs the selected utility.
Auto Registration: Select activating Auto Register and click【Ü】, the register setup screen will appear. Type in the registration server IP, port and register interval time.
*File sharing: As of 04/01/2013 File Sharing is currently unavailable. Please refer to http://kb.zmodo.com in the future for potential updates regarding this feature.
*Email Setting: Click [Ü], the EMAIL setup screen will appear. To take effect this function must be paired with an alarm email setting. Enter the smtp mail server address in the screen, the corresponding smtp port number(if the port uses SSL you must check the box indicating such) the desired email address to be used for sending the email, that emails corresponding password(please check the validating identity box), and the recipient email address, Pressing the [Test] button next to sender mail address will send a test email if the settings match up to the chosen email address.
*Mobile port: This port controls all information transmitted for viewing and control via a mobile device such as a smart phone or tablet when used in conjunction with the Zviewer application on the device.
*FTP server: Please refer to the previous section regarding file sharing.
*UPnP: To start UPnP set the feature to on and select [Ü]. UPnP, short for universal plug and play, when connected to a network with the same feature will automatically map out and open the necessary ports in order of the user to be able to view the system through the internet. Not all networks or routers in use today have this feature. Refer to your routers user manual for more information on compatibility.
*IP ACCESS: When disabled any PC(IP address) can access the device. When set to "Allow Access" only devices using IP addresses entered in to this setting will be allowed access to the IE web client and all others will be restricted at the log in screen. When using the "Forbidden" setting any device will have access to the IE web client with the exception of devices using IP addresses entered in to this category. Only one of these 3 settings is in effect at any time.
*Time synchronization: Click [Ü] to start synchronization. The device can automatically update its time and date based on the server information entered in this option. If turned off the device when connected to the internet will pull a date and time from a default server and update accordingly.
Note1: Any settings adjusted in the network will not take effect until saved from the save menu.
Note2: Currently mail using PPPoE is only supported if using the SMTP protocol.

1) Calculate the maximum capacity of the build-in hard disk.
*Timing Recording:
Step 1: Calculate the maximum capacity of the hard disk needed in selected channel per hour, suppose as Si (MByte) (i is the channel number), and suppose the bit rate of the channel selected as D (Kbit/s). The formula of calculation is:
Si =(D*3600)/(8*1024)= D * 0.439453125 MB
Step 2: Confirm the storage time length, suppose as T hours. The total maximum capacity of the hard disk needed in selected channel for T hours, suppose as St is:
St = T * S1
Step 3: Confirm the total numbers of the channels, suppose as n. The total maximum capacity of the hard disk needed, suppose as Sc is:
Sc = S1 + S2 +... + Sn Alarm Recording:
Suppose the rate of alarming as α%. The capacity of the hard disk needed in alarm recording supposed as Sa is:
Sa = Sc * α%
2) Calculate the compression bit rate for recording T hours.
*Timing Recording
Step 1: Suppose the capacity of the hard disk as S, the total numbers of the channel as n. The capacity of hard disk needed per channel supposed as Di is:
Di = S / n
Step 2: Suppose the total recording time as T hours. The capacity of the hard disk needed per hour per channel supposed as Dt is:
Dt = Di / T
Step 3: The bit rate of all channels supposed as Dc is:
Dc = Dt *(8*1024)/ 3600 = Dt * 2.2756 (Kbit/s)
