Chapter 10 09 10. Networking Overview This chapter will try to give you a detailed instruction on how to network the DVR. Before we begin the process of networking your digital recorder we should have a working knowledge of what a network is and how it works. This will be a helpful in completing the networking process. 10.1 Introduction to TCP/IP TCP/IP is the suite of protocols used by the Internet and most LANs (Local Area Networks) throughout the world.
10.3 Gateway Address Each host in a LAN has a gateway. A gateway address is composed of four octets (numbers in the range of 0 to 255) separated by decimal points. The gateway address is used to uniquely identify a host or computer on the LAN which assigns the IP addresses to your network. For example, a Linksys router has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. If you were using this type of router within your LAN, then your gateway would be the IP address of the Linksys router.
10.5 Pre-Installation Before we begin with the installation we must ask ourselves a few questions in order to figure out where to begin with networking our DVR’s. Do you have Hi-speed Internet? ______________ There are many types of high speed Internet available. Three commonly used ones are T1, Cable, and DSL (in order of speed). Note: It is suggested to have a minimum upload speed of 256KBps. This can be addressed by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
What type of DVR are you installing? ______________ Everfocus EDR series: EDR410, 810, 920, 1620 or 1640 Everfocus EDVR series: EDVR4F1, EDVR4D1, EDVR9F1, EDVR9D1, EDVR16F1, EDVR16D1, EDVR16F2, EDVR16D2, or EDVR16D3. 10.6 What Type of Network Connection do you have? DVR’s can operate using three distinct types of networking connections. 1. Simple One to One Connection: A simple one to one connection is the most simple network connection.
10.7 Simple One to One Connection Cat 5 Cross-over-cable Crossover Ethernet Cable Pin outs: The Diagram below shows the pin configurations for a cross over cable. Diagram 10.1 Connection Procedure: 1. The First step is to purchase or make a cross-over cable. We recommend purchasing one if you have never made a cross-over cable. Please remember you can not use a straight through network cable for this application 2.
255.255.255.000, and a default gateway of 192.168.001.001. 5. The next step is to get the computer onto the same network to do this you will need administrator access to your windows machine. 6. To assign a static IP address in windows 2000/XP.

3. Now Log into the DVR menu and using the jog dial from the previous chapter go to the Network Setting Menu. 4. Assign the Static IP address which you obtained from the internet service provider to the DVR, the Subnet mask from the internet service provider to the DVR, and the default gateway of the internet service provider. Note: If you have a dynamic IP address, you will need to enable and configure DDNS in the DVR’s Network Menu. Please refer to Chapter 3.7.6 and Chapter 13 for more information. 5.
10.9 Router or LAN Connection Hi-speed modem Internet Cat 5 Straight Through Cable Router DVR Straight Through Ethernet Cable Pin outs: The Diagram below shows the pin configurations for a straight cable. Diagram 10.
Connection Procedure: 1. The First step is to purchase or make a straight through cable. We recommend purchasing one if you have never made a straight through cable. Please remember you can not use a cross-over network cable for this application 2. Once you have a straight through cable plug one end into the LAN port on the back of the recorder and the other into the router. 3. Now Log into the DVR menu and using the jog dial from the previous chapter go to the Network Setting Menu. 4.
Use the prior step to assign an IP address. For example, if you got the IP address from the computer of 192.168.002.101. Assign the DVR’s IP address as 192.168.002.050. Now Copy the subnet mask and default gateway information you got from the prior step off the computer to the DVR. Note: Make sure the modem is in bridge mode. If your Internet Service Provider provides a modem that includes a built-in router, you will need to disable the router functionality. 5.

Troubleshooting If you have difficulty operating your system, run through the following checklist to see if you can solve the problem. The DVR will not go into record mode? Make sure the HDD is locked in with the keys. Also check to make sure the hard drives are set to C.S. (Cable Select). A diagram located on the Hard Drive Label will show you how to set the drive to C.S. The DVR displays no picture? First question you should ask yourself is the equipment wired properly.
If you have a Dynamic IP address from your Internet Service Provider. Dynamic IP addresses can cause conflicts when trying to connect to DVR(s) on a high speed internet connection. With new router technology (DDNS), it allows you to overcome this problem. DDNS lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful when you are hosting your own DVR, website, FTP server, or other server behind the Router.
