NOTE: When only one unit of the DVR is connected to a computer or LAN, you can

freely assign an IP address for the DVR. For example, there are a range of DVR

IP addresses from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.255. You can pick one for use from

the range of the IP. It’s not necessary to set MASK and GATEWAY; leave the

settings as default.

When a DVR is connected to a WAN, you must acquire a unique, permanent IP

address and correctly configure the MASK and GATEWAY settings according to

your network architecture. If you have any questions regarding those settings,

please contact a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.

NOTE: When connecting to a network, each connected DVR must be assigned a unique

IP, which must be in the same class type as your network address. IP addresses

are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example,

192.168.0.1 Therefore, if the connected network is identified as Class C, for

example, the first three sets of numbers of the DVR IP address must be the same

as the network address. If the connected network is identified as Class B, the

first two sets of numbers of the DVR IP address must be the same as the

network address. If you have any questions regarding these settings, please

contact a qualified MIS professional or your ISP.
