Information about each of the start-up tasks follows.
ACCESSING THE NVR300 USER INTERFACE
The NVR300 provides a Web-based user interface that can be accessed in the following ways:
Locally from the NVR300. For additional information, refer to the Accessing the NVR300 Locally section. 
Remotely through the network from the following:
VMX300 video management system (server). For additional information, refer to the Accessing the NVR300 from the VMX300 section.
Client PC on the network. For additional information, refer to the Accessing the NVR300 from a Client PC section

Either of the following occurs:
If you are required to log in to the NVR300, a dialog box appears allowing you to enter a user name and password. Refer to the Logging In

 section for log-in instructions.
If you are not required to log in to the NVR300, the NVR-Status page of the NVR300 appears.
Note that the NVR-Status page loads automatically when Microsoft Internet Explorer is started. If, however, the page does not load, click 
the desktop icon.
Accessing the NVR300 from the VMX300 Server
NOTE:  To provide interoperability between the VMX300 and the NVR300, set the date, time, and time zone of the VMX300 to match those of the 
NVR300 as defined in the Date and Time Properties dialog box of the NVR300. If the date, time, and time zone settings of the VMX300 do not 
match those of the NVR300, problems may occur with the playback of recordings using the VMX300.
The NVR300 user interface is integrated into the VMX300 server software. If you have been given user access privileges to edit PelcoNet MPEG 
device drivers on the VMX300 server, you can access and operate the NVR300 for a selected PelcoNet device. For detailed information about 
accessing the NVR300 from the VMX300 server, refer to the VMX300(-E) Server Configuration manual.
After accessing the NVR300 from the VMX300, note the following:
If you are required to log in to the NVR300, refer to the Logging In to the NVR300 section for log-in instructions.
If you are not required to log in to the NVR300, the NVR-Playback page of the NVR300 appears. 
Accessing the NVR300 from a Client PC
NOTE:  To provide interoperability between a client PC and the NVR300, set the date, time, and time zone of the client PC to match those of the 
NVR300 as defined in the Date and Time Properties dialog box of the NVR300. If the date, time, and time zone settings of the client PC do not 
match those of the NVR300, problems may occur with the playback of recordings using the client PC.
