How to Setup the Network Access

Plug your DVR into your network with the included network cable.

Determine which IP address range your computer uses. IP addresses can be in the form of 192.168.0.xxx or
10.1.1.xxx.

Give your computer a unique IP address in the same range as your computer – i.e. if your computer IP address is
192.168.0.1, give your DVR 192.168.0.2

Attempt to 'ping' this IP address from your computer, using an MS DOS prompt

Once you can successfully 'ping' your DVR, you will be able to connect to it using the included remote access
software "Video Server E"
Note: We recommend hiring an I.T Professional to assist you if you are unfamiliar with computer networking.
