operations will be possible from the PC screen.  
z Up to a maximum of four PCs can be simultaneously  
connected to a single DVR (Digital Video Recorder).  
(Example)  
z When this unit is being used while connected to a  
network, network settings must be made on the unit  
itself. See INSTRUCTION MANUAL “Network settings”  
for more details.  
z TCP/IP settings must be made on the connected PCs  
and in accordance with the operating system (OS)  
being used on each.  
z Users with user level ID1: 3 PCs  
z Users with user level ID2 or ID3: 1 PC  
z Control of the DVR can be freely switched from the unit  
itself to the PC and vice versa. Note that operation of  
the unit will not be affected by simply connecting a  
cable.  
z In order to provide security for computer control, three  
types of password are set in accordance with the  
different user levels, and this ensures that three  
different levels of restrictions can be introduced for  
operations. (JP. 23)  
z When a pre-existing network is being used, a check  
must be carried out by that network’s administrator to  
confirm that IP addresses do not coincide with other IP  
addresses already in use.  
Saving and playing back sound  
z The dedicated application DVR Viewer (Ver. 1.5 or  
later) must be installed on the system in order to store  
or playback audio on a networked PC or to playback  
sound-containing video that has been stored on a PC,  
CompactFlash card, or the like.

carried out either for playback during alarm recording or  
continuous playback from the normal recording area  
and alarm recording area, the image may seem to have
