Summary
If the client site does not allow for the home run of every camera connection, forcing you to leave cameras on the client's business network, you will need to configure the NVR's internal switch to Manual Mode. PnP mode is incompatible with this type of arrangement. This article provides instructions for manually registering a camera from the customer's network.
NOTE: You may have to re-register all of your cameras if you switch
from PnP Mode to Manual Mode. Make sure you know the credentials
for all of your cameras.
Registering a Camera
To register a camera from the customer's network:
- Click the Gear icon at the top of the interface.
- Navigate to System > System Management > Settings.
- Uncheck the box next to Enable PnP Mode.
- Click Apply.
- Navigate to Camera > Register.
- Click Manual.
- If the camera in question is a Hanwha camera, select the Wisenet radio button next to Protocol. If it is a third-party camera, select ONVIF.
- Select Wisenet Camera from the Model drop-down menu.
NOTE: If you select Wisenet Multi-Channel Camera from the
drop-down menu, the Channel field becomes available and
you will need to register each channel individually. - Leave address type at Static IPV4.
- Unless you have changed your camera's ports leave the default entries at 80 and 4520.
- Enter your ID and Password, then click Ok.
- Repeat steps 5-11 for each device you need to add.
IMPORTANT: Click Ok at the bottom of the Register screen
before clicking away or all of your changes will be dropped.
