2. Connecting to Network.
Temporary IP address needs to be assigned via using NetSetup Utility or ARP/Ping in the initial
stage of using the product, in order to connect to the IP DVR SERVER.
The default network setup is as following;
z IP Address: 192.168.1.200
z Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
z Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
2.1. IP Address Setup.
There are two methods to assign a temporary IP address, ARP/Ping and using NetSetup.
ARP/Ping is processed in user’s computer, executing the commands given in order of inputs and
NetSetup is designated software to be used in Microsoft Windows
2.1.1. Using ARP/Ping.
After checking the MAC address from the bottom of IP DVR SERVER run the ‘Terminal’ screen on
your computer (dos if you are using Microsoft Windows).
(1) Connect the computer and IP DVR SERVER in the same network.
(2) After checking the computer’s network, choose the temporary IP address for your ‘IP DVR
SERVER’. (You can simply use the IP address from your computer, by changing the last digit only,
as long as that specific IP address is not used by other devices in the same network).
(3) Reboot the IP DVR SERVER and wait for 1 minute or so till it powers back on.
(4) Here is a sample per O/S used in the computer.
O/S Methods Example
Windows arp –s <IP address> <MAC address>
ping <IP address>
arp –s 192.168.1.200 00-30-ba-bf-56-10
ping 192.168.1.200

temp
ping <IP address>
arp –s 192.168.1.200 00:30:ba:bf:56:10
temp
ping 192.168.1.200
(5) If you are getting a feedback from the temporary IP address, when ping, go to next step. If
not, please check the status of IP DVR SERVER and start from the beginning again.
(6) Try to connect to the IP DVR SERVER by entering the temporary IP address in the web
browser’s address section.

MPEG-4 Stream
Operation
Either activate or deactivate the specific stream. Primary Stream is
always active. If user is not using Secondary Stream, it’s always a good
idea to deactivate it. For example, if user is running on 320x240 Single
Resolution (only Primary Stream is active), IP DVR SERVER will perform
at 30fps; however, if running on Dual Resolution (activating both
Primary Stream and Secondary Stream), frame rate will be less than
30fps. (Please refer to MPEG-4 Frame Rate on bottom of this chart for
further explanation).
Operation will also have effects on other functions as well. For
example, if you choose to run deactivate stream in “Record” or “Event,”
that specific function won’t perform normally.
Resolution Choose size of image per stream.
Bit-rate Control Choose between VBR (Variable Bit Rate) and CBR (Constant Bit Rate).
CBR can be set from 10kbit/s to 1800kbit/s.
GOV (Group Of Video)
Structure
Decide if image will be solely based on i-frame or mixture of i-frame
and p-frame.
GOV Length
Configure the i-frame interval. If set GOV Structure as “IP” and GOV
Length at 5, every 5th frame will be an i-frame, meaning, the output
will be “I P P P P I P P P P I P P P P …”
(If GOV Structure is set as “I,” GOV Length can only be 1.)
Frame rate
Configure the maximum frame rate per second. Depending on usage of
Secondary Stream and Resolution configuration, maximum frame rate
might differ from the set value.
In case of Single Resolution, 640x480 is maxed at 15fps and 320x240
is maxed at 30fps. However, if running a Dual Resolution, two different
streams are activated concurrently, thus, resulting in lower maximum
frame rate. For example, if running 640x480 and 320x240
simultaneously, both 640x480 and 320x240 will run at maximum value
of 10fps.
This value will also have effect on MPEG-4 image recording.

Motion JPEG Stream
Operation
Either activate or deactivate the specific stream. Primary Stream is
always active. If user is not using Secondary Stream, it’s always a good
idea to deactivate it. For example, if user is running on 320x240 Single
Resolution (only Primary Stream is active), IP DVR SERVER will perform
at 30fps; however, if running on Dual Resolution (activating both
Primary Stream and Secondary Stream), frame rate will be less than
30fps. (Please refer to M-JPEG Frame Rate on bottom of this chart for
further explanation).
Operation will also have effects on other functions as well. For
example, if you choose to run deactivate stream in “Record” or “Event,”
that specific function won’t perform normally.
Resolution Choose size of image per stream.
Quality Configure the quality of each stream.
Frame rate
Configure the maximum frame rate per second. Depending on usage of
Secondary Stream and Resolution configuration, maximum frame rate
might differ from the set value.
In case of Single Resolution, 640x480 is maxed at 15fps and 320x240

This is for a security setting for controlling the web server access. User can either limit or allow
an access from specific network group or IP address.
Function Description
IP Filtering Enable Enable or disable the function.
Set
Click a condition from list 1-10, which user would like to
activate. Filtering conditions will be met from top to bottom if
more than one condition was activated.
IP Address Input the desired network group or specific IP address.
Subnet mask
By adding a subnet mask, user can configure the boundary of
IP address in the corresponding network group.
For example, subnet mask value of 255.255.255.255 would
be 32 and subnet mask value of 255.255.255.0 would 24.
IP Filtering
Setting
Policy Choose either to accept or decline an access from the
aforementioned information.
Save Saves the changed values. Must restart the system in order

z Calculation method for Subnet mask value is based on the binary scale. Based on this,
255.255.255.255 would be 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111111 in binary scale and total
number of bit is 32 and 255.255.255.0 would be 11111111.11111111.11111111.0 in binary
scale and total number of bit would be 24.
z Access will be controlled only if the configured IP address and Subnet mask value’s bit value
match the IP address and Subnet mask value’s bit value are perfect match. Conditions will be
met from top to bottom (starts with 1 and ends with 10), and setting that meets all the
conditions will be granted an access or prohibited from access.
z For example, when IP address of IP DVR SERVER is 192.168.1.200 and user would like to deny
an access from group of IP address from 192.168.1.1~254, but only allow 192.168.1.254 to
granted an access, setting would be like the following example;
z If a user from blocked IP address tries to access the IP DVR SERVER, the following message
will be shown.
504 Service Protected.
Sorry, this site is protected. Your IP '192.168.1.21' is denied by filter rule.
