UPnP is the abbreviation for Universal Plug and Play, which is a relatively 
new technology that integrates a universal protocol for widespread 
plug-and-play devices to ease the network implementation. When a PC and a 
DVR both installed the UPnP function, the PC can automatically recognize 
the DVR in the same local area network.   
 
The advantage of this function is that PCs can connect to the DVR via the 
remote control software by directly clicking on the icon representing the DVR 
in <My Network Places> folder. 
 

Enable the UPnP function in the DVR: 
Enter the OSD menu with a proper account and access <System Setup> Æ 
<Network Setup> Æ <UPnP Setup>. The menu is as the following: 
 

UPnP Setup 

UPnP                                       
UPnP NAT Traversal     

ON 

No 

 
Set the first item UPnP to <ON> and the DVR is ready. 
 
Install the UPnP interface components in a PC: 

• Click <Start> Æ <Control Panel> Æ <Add or Remove Programs>. 
• Then click <Add/Remove Windows Components> on the left. 
• In Windows Components Wizard, double click on <Networking 

Services>, then check the box in front of <Universal Plug and Play>. 

• Click <OK>, then <Next> and the installation process will begin. 
•  When the installation is completed, the icon representing the DVR can be 

found in <My Network Places> folder. 

•  Double click on the icon will open an internet browser that connects to the 

DVR via the remote control software. 

 

The UPnP NAT traversal function will help to automatically setup a router if 
the DVR connects to the internet via a router.
