How the System Works

The wireless NVR system consists of two parts. One is the NVR connected to the monitor, and the other is the IP cameras installed. Both NVR and IPC need an independent power supply to work. Users can watch the real-time video captured by each IPC on the monitor. These images will also be saved in NVR for later playback at any time.

How to Connect the System

To ensure that the product can work normally, we recommend that you connect the whole system before installation to see if there is any damage during transportation.
How to connect the system:

1. Connect NVR to the router using a network cable.
2. Connect the monitor to NVR via HDMI or VGA port(VGA cable is not included).
3. Connect the included USB mouse to the top USB port of NVR.
4. Connect NVR to the power supply (12V power adapter)
5. After the system starts, connect the camera to the system (maximum support of 8 channels).
6. The monitor will display live video of the camera.

Camera Installation Steps
