Configuring an FTP server to store
snapshots
You can upload your snapshots to an FTP server for storage.
Note: It is not possible to stream video to an FTP site.
To configure the FTP server settings:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > FTP .
2. Check the Enable FTP box.
3. Enter the FTP server information.
4. Select the desired directory. The root directory is default.
5. Click Apply .
Configuring a remote alarm host
If a remote alarm host set, the DVR sends a signal to the host when an alarm is
triggered. The remote alarm host must have the TruVision Navigator server
software installed.
To set up a remote alarm host:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > More Settings .
2. Enter Alarm Host IP and Alarm Host Port.
Alarm host IP represents the IP of the remote PC where the Network Video
Surveillance software installed. The alarm host port value must be the same
as software’s alarm monitor port. Default port is 7200.
Configuring multicast
Setting up multicasting resolves limitation issues when streaming videos through
a network access device. A multicast address spans the Class-D IP range of
224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. We recommend that the IP address range of
239.252.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 be used.
To set up multicasting:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > More Settings .
2. Enter a Multicast IP address.
Note: When adding a device to the Network Video Surveillance software, the
multicast address must be the same as the DVR’s multicast IP.
3. Click Apply to save the settings.
