Adding Devices Using Auto-Discovery

The Auto-Discovery feature allows you to automatically discover devices on the network to add to

the NVR. When the devices are discovered you can add as many devices until you reach your limit

of camera licences. The default recording status for cameras added via auto-discovery is Record

Always.

Note

When using Auto-Discovery, it is recommended that the camera network you are using to discover

cameras on, has a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.

Not all cameras can be added to the NVR in this way as some manufacturers require cameras to

be pre-configured prior to being added to a network.

To avoid problems with auto-discovery:

1 Mak

e sure the NVR is on the network and is online.

2 Con

nect the network devices to the NVR.

3 Powe

r on the network devices and cameras. After the cameras have finished their

initialization you can use the auto-discovery feature.

4 Came

ras and Encoders need to be set with a valid IP address. (uPnP discovery is not

supported).

5 Ensu

re the IP cameras are using the manufacturer’s default username and password.
