The X-205 video can be streamed to an Onvif compliant NVR. This can be a hardware device, or a PC application. Either
configuration will likely require hard drive storage on a PC or a cloud server. Below is a walkthrough using a Lorex NVR
with the X-205.
STEP 1
Open the NVR user interface after installation.
STEP 2
Click on the "Camera" button.
STEP 3
Click on "Device Search" or "Manual Add".
STEP 4
Find your X-205 and click on it.
STEP 5
Enter the username and password for NVR control and click on Setup.
STEP 6
After the connection is established (you will see confirmation of the successful setup).
STEP 7
If the video is properly displayed, click on Save. The X-205 should show up as a connected device.
The table above is for Software Based NVR.
The X-205 has two default accounts for Onvif NVR interaction, shown
right. These can be modified or removed via your Onvif NVR interface.
Additional users can also be added in the same way. Use either of
these for first time NVR configuration.
A. Hardware Based NVR
Configure your X-205 device with a hardware based
NVR as shown in the following steps. The
screenshots are taken from a Lorex N843 series
NVR. Most hardware Network Video Recorders will
interact with Onvif cameras in the same fashion, and
the interfaces are similar.
The X-205 device should be connected to the same
LAN as the NVR. Take note of the device's IP
address (found in the X-Series Discovery Utility or
in the NVR's search window).
Log in to the Local or Web interface of your NVR with
the admin username and password. You should see a
screen like the one shown right.
Click on "Camera" to modify connected cameras.
Click on "Manual Add" to add the camera.
