SwannView Link Software
Your DVR comes with powerful remote access and interface
software, called SwannView Link. You can setup and configure
almost all aspects of the DVR from the SwannView Link interface.
The SwannView Link software will allow you to:
• view images from your DVR in real-time,
• playback recorded footage,
• copy footage to your local PC and
• adjust settings and configure the DVR.
In fact, the SwannView Link software is so powerful, you don’t
even need to connect a monitor to the DVR if there’s a computer
on the local network that you’re running SwannView Link on.
For quick and easy configuration of the DVR’s settings,
recording quality and schedule, we suggest using the remote
interface in SwannView Link.
How to install SwannView Link:
• Insert the included CD into your computer.
• Click the SwannView Link PC Monitoring Software button
from the Software Installation Menu to begin installation.
• You may be asked by UAC (User Account Control) to allow
SwannView Link to “make changes” to your system. Select
Allow or Continue.
• You’ll see an installation wizard. Simply follow the prompts
to install the software.
• Once the SwannView Link software is installed, it should
automatically detect your DVR on your network.
