3. Enstalasyon
Follow these steps to set up your Imou N18P POE NVR Recorder.
3.1 Enstalasyon Materyèl
- Enstalasyon Disk Di (Si ou vle): Si pa gen yon HDD preenstale, ouvri NVR la.asing, connect the SATA data and power cables to the HDD, and secure it with the provided screws. Close the casing.
- Konekte Monitè a: Konekte yon monitè ak NVR a swa avèk pò HDMI a oswa pò VGA a.
- Konekte sourit: Plug the USB mouse into one of the NVR's USB ports.
- Konekte rezo: Connect the NVR's LAN port to your router or network switch using an Ethernet cable.
- Konekte Kamera PoE yo: Connect your PoE IP cameras to the NVR's PoE ports (1-8) using Ethernet cables. The NVR will provide power and data connectivity.
- Konekte pouvwa: Branche adaptè kouran an nan priz kouran NVR a epi answit nan yon priz kouran. NVR a ap limen otomatikman.
3.2 Inisyal Konfigirasyon
- First-Time Boot: Upon first power-on, the NVR will guide you through an initial setup wizard on the connected monitor.
- Mete Modpas Administratè a: Create a strong password for the administrator account. This is crucial for security.
- Anviwònman rezo: Configure network settings. DHCP is usually enabled by default, allowing the NVR to obtain an IP address automatically. For advanced users, a static IP can be configured.
- Ajoute Kamera: The NVR will typically auto-discover Imou PoE cameras connected to its PoE ports. Follow the on-screen prompts to add and initialize them. For third-party cameras, manual addition via ONVIF or specific protocols may be required.
- Lè ak Dat: Mete zòn tan, dat ak lè ki kòrèk la. Aktive NTP (Network Time Protocol) pou senkronizasyon otomatik.
4. Opere
