Your NVR's Unique IDentifier
52
Network: General
Be careful adjusting settings here - if the NVR can't access the
network anymore, you won't be able to configure it remotely!
Network Access: How your network is addressed - either DHCP
or STATIC IP addressing.
Subnet Mask: A required additional piece of IP addressing
information.
Gateway: The way "out" of your network, to the Internet.
Auto DNS / Static DNS: Whether the NVR will automatically
select a DNS server, or use one you assign.
Preferred / Alternate DNS: The NVR has two DNS servers,
essentially a primary and a backup.
MAC Address: The Media Access Control address. For some
advanced networking, it can help to know this value.
Network: Advanced Settings
DDNS Setup: Opens the DDNS setup window (below).
NTP Setup: Opens the Network Time Protocol setup window
(see below).
Email Setting: Opens the Email Setup window (see below).
Server Port: One of the two ports the NVR needs to communicate
over your network. Ensure nothing else uses this port. The
default value is 9000. This is the port number you'll use when
logging in over the Internet from the SwannView Link software or
remote access from a mobile device.
HTTP Port: The second of two ports the NVR needs to
communicate over your network. Ensure nothing else uses this
port. The default value is 85.
• NTP Setup
NTP Domain or IP Address: The server you intend to use to
access the current date and time. The default is pool.ntp.org.
NTP Port: The port that the NTP server uses. The default for
pool.ntp.org is 123.
• Email Setting
Operates in the same way as the email setup menu in the NVR
menu. Rather than attempt to summarize here, it's easier to
simply turn to page 36 to learn more.
• DDNS Setup
Where you can configure a Dynamic DNS server to track the
"position" of your NVR over the Internet. Check out page 35
more information on DDNS servers.
We recommend using SWANNDVR as your DNS service.
This is a free service for Swann NVR owners, which we directly
support.

for
Alarm: Motion Detection
Channel: The channel you're configuring the motion detection
settings for.
Enable: Whether the motion detection is enabled for the channel
currently selected.
Sensitivity: A sliding scale between 1 and 50. The number refers
to the number of pixels (as a percentage) that have to "change"
between frames - okay, this one is a little more complex than
this summary will allow. Seriously - check out page 38 for a
much more useful explanation of how motion detection works.
Action: What you'd like the NVR to do when it detects motion.
Typically (assuming the schedule is configured to do so) this will
be to record video. It can also be a cue to trigger an email alert,
or to sound the NVR's internal buzzer.
Alarm: Video Loss
Action (Check boxes): Whether you'd like the NVR to send an
email alert or to sound the NVR's internal buzzer.
Arm Schedule: The times of day/week you'd like the NVR to be
"armed" to detect video loss.
Alarm: Exception
Exception Type: What event type you'd like the NVR to react to.
By configuring the Action for these events, you can create any
combination of audio alerts (see below) or auto-emails to be
sent for different event types.
Audio Warning: Sounds the NVR's internal buzzer.
Send Email: Commands the NVR to send an email alert.
Show Exception: Shows any alerts that occur at the bottom right
corner of the main screen. Double-click on the alert notification
to see details.
