DDNS
After the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) parameter is set, when the
IP address of the NVR device changes frequently, the system can dynamically
update the relationship between the domain name and the IP address on the
DNS server. You can use the domain name to access the NVR directly without
recording the constantly changing IP address.
Prerequisites
Before configuring DDNS, make sure that the device supports the type of
domain name resolution server, and log in to the DDNS service provider's
63
website to register user name, password, domain name, and other
information on the WAN PC.
Configure DDNS as follows:
Step 1: On the menu page, select " Configuration →Network →DDNS " to

server. (At present, the device supports multiple DDNS, including ORAY,
NO-IP, DYN, CHANGEIP, A-PRESS, MYQSEE, SKDDNS, SMART-EYES. These
multiple DDNSs can coexist at the same time, and the user can select
and set them as needed).
Refresh Time (sec): Do not register frequently. The interval between
two registrations shall be more than 60 seconds. Too many registration
requests may result in server attack.
User name: The account registered in the DNS service provider.
Password: The password to the account registered in the DNS service
provider.

Message interval (Min): The interval between sending emails. After the
email sending interval is set, when the alarm is triggered, the system
does not trigger the immediate sending of the email according to the
alarm signal. Instead, the email is sent according to the interval time of
the same type of event email. Avoid frequent alarms and generate a lot
of mail, causing the mail server to be overstressed. The time range is
0~600 points, 0 points means that the mail is sent without intervals.
Encryption: Select the Mailbox server encryption, including NONE, SSL,
TLS, and default "SSL".

UPnP
After the mapping between the internal network and the external network is
established through the UPnP protocol, the external network user can use
the external network IP address to directly access the NVR device on the
intranet.
Prerequisites
1) Log in to the router and set the IP address of the router's WAN port to
access the external network.
2) Make sure that the router is a first-level router (or virtual first-level router)
and turn on the UPnP function.

same, but can not and NVR other ports repeat.
Delete: Select the mapping information in the port mapping table and
delete the mapping relationship.
70
Instruction
When setting the external port of the router mapping port, try to use
the port between 1024 and 65535. Avoid using the well-known port
1~255 and the system port 256~1023 to avoid conflict.
When deploying multiple devices in the same LAN, plan the port
mapping to avoid mapping multiple devices to the same external port.
When performing port mapping, ensure that the mapped port is not
occupied or restricted.
TCP internal and external ports must be consistent and cannot be
modified.

Chapter 8 Appendixes
8.1 Q&A
1. How to do when can’t detect the hard disk?
Answer: If the system does not detect the hard disk, kindly please check the
data line and the power line of hard disk whether are connected well,
whether there is a problem about the interface of hard disk on the
motherboard, or kindly please check hard disk whether is supported by the
NVR in specification.
2. After modifying password, what can you do when you forget the
password?
Answer: When the administrator forget password, kindly please get in touch
with our technical staff. The easy to remember and relatively safe password
is recommended when you set the password (if you have security needs,
kindly please don’t try to set simple passwords such as 123).
3. What results will maybe happen due to the heat when NVR is working?
Answer: It will produce some heat when NVR is working, kindly please put
the NVR in the place where is safe and ventilated to stop the stability and life
of the system be affected due to long-term high temperature of NVR.
4. Whether can use if i install the hard disk drive of computer to NVR?
Answer: If the hard disk you use can be supported by the system of NVR, it
can work, but you need note, if the NVR begins to work, all data in your hard
disk will loss.
124
8. Why can’t find any recording information when playback?
Answer: Kindly please check whether the connection of data line of hard disk
is good, whether the time of system is changed, whether the query condition
that is not set to save video files. If also have the question after restarting,
kindly please check whether the hard disk is damaged.
8.2 Maintenance
1. When NVR shutdowns, kindly please don’t turn off the power switch
directly, should use the shutdown button of system to avoid data loss or
damage of the hard disk.
Ensure NVR away from high temperature heat source and place.
Remove the dust deposited in the body timing, keep the good ventilation
around chassis, it is good for radiating.
4. About the audio/video signal line and RS-485 interfaces, kindly please
don’t hot swap, or these port will be damaged easily.
5. Check the HDD power cable and data cable of the NVR regularly and look
whether they are aging.
