  If the mouse is not working with your SVAT DVR, ensure it's connected to the top USB port on the back of the DVR. If it still doesn't work, try connecting the mouse to a different USB port.

Why can't I view my SVAT 11012 through a remote internet connection?

  If you cannot view your SVAT DVR through a remote internet connection, port forwarding may not be set up correctly. Also, the external IP address of the DVR may have changed; consider setting up a DDNS account to stay connected with the latest IP information. Your ISP might be blocking port 80, so try changing the HTTP Port to 8080.

  If you cannot see all or one of the cameras on the SVAT DVR monitor, check if the cameras are properly connected to the back of the DVR and to a power source. If you're using a 4 to 1 power connector, ensure it's plugged into a power source and each of the cameras. Also, check the CAMERA SETUP in the MAIN MENU to see if any of the cameras are turned off.

Why is the video choppy when viewing live footage online from my SVAT 11012 DVR?

  If the video is choppy when viewing live footage online from your SVAT DVR, it could be due to multiple users accessing the DVR simultaneously, slowing down the connection. You may also have a slow internet connection. It's normal to experience a small time delay between the live footage and the network viewing.

Why does the NETWORK SETTINGS screen on my SVAT DVR have no information?
- J

  If the NETWORK SETTINGS screen on your SVAT DVR has no information, ensure the DVR is properly connected to the router; there should be green link indicator lights if the DVR is properly connected. Make sure the DVR IP Allocation is set to DHCP, which is a standard default setting that will work in most networking situations. Power cycle the DVR to ensure it is properly connected and the IP Allocation is set to DHCP.

Why is my SVAT 11012 DVR not recording even though all the images are appearing on the screen?
- L
  Lorraine JohnsonSep 6, 2025
  If your SVAT DVR is not recording even though all the images are appearing on the screen, you must initiate the recording to start by pressing the RECORD button on the remote. Also, check under Record Setup in the main menu to make sure all the cameras are set to ON. Verify that the HDD is installed and formatted in the DEVICE menu and check your record schedule to make sure the DVR is set to record that hour.
