Editing IP Cameras connected to
the PoE interfaces
The PoE interface enables the NVR system to pass
electrical power and data, through Ethernet cabling
to the connected network cameras.
LaView NVRs provides PoE interfaces which can
connect to network cameras directly; and if you dont
use the PoE interface, you can also connect to the
online network cameras. The PoE interface supports
the Plug-and-Play function.
Example:
For LaView NVRs, when you want to connect 1
online camera and connect 3 network cameras via
PoE interfaces, you must disable 1 PoE interface in
the Edit IP camera panel.
