default, the NVR uses DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) to acquire compatible (dynamic, changeable) network settings
from a network DHCP server (usually a router). You can leave the settings on this menu unchanged, but it is recommended that the
NVR have xed (unchanging) network settings, which is convenient for remote logins.
a. In the Wizard 2 Network Setup window, nothing usually has to change in the left column. You can enter your preferred DNS
server addresses (optional, ex. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 [Google] DNSs) in the Preferred .. and Alternate DNS elds.
b. The column on the right shows that the Enable DHCP box is checked (by default) and the recorder acquired network settings
from a DHCP server. These settings are compatible with your network and the other devices that share it. To enable xed
network settings, un-check the Enable DHCP box. Then you can either use the IPV4 parameters assigned by the DHCP server,
or enter your preferred IPV4 parameters (IPv4 Address, IPv4 Subnet Mask, IPv4 Default Gateway). NOTE: If you enter IPV4
parameters in the elds above, ensure that they do not conict with other devices in the network.

b. Repeat the same pattern again to verify your choice. Use this pattern to unlock your recorder when requested.
Step 5. Using the setup Wizard
During startup of a new NVR, the setup Wizard opens by default. Use the Wizard to select the essential conguration settings of your NVR.
You can disable the automatic startup of this feature in the Conguration menu. Refer to the rmware manual for your recorder for more
information.
1. Next, the conguration Wizard Date ad Time Setup menu will open. Since all recordings made by your surveillance system are time
stamped, It is very important that the date and time is set precisely to produce valuable evidence from your recorder.
