2MT-4XXX Series User Guide,Digital Video Recorders DVRs are devices which record video to a hard drive. DVRs are used with closed circuit security cameras to create a surveillance system that can detect an record crimes. 2M Technology offers DVRs which are feature rich and provide services for your security needs.
This manual describes how to use your DVR locally or on the Web interface.
In this manual, the terms IP camera and IPC refer to the same thing: network camera, which requires a connection to the network. And the IP device mentioned in this manual refers to an IP camera (also known as network camera) or a Digital Video Server (DVS).
A DVR supports two types of operations: local operations and web- based remote operations. With local operations you connect a monitor and a mouse to the DVR and use the mouse to operate. If your DVR has buttons on the front panel or is delivered with a remote control, you may also control your DVR by pressing the front panel buttons or using the remote control.
The DVR has an embedded web server and allows web-based operations. To do this, you need a PC that has a network connection to the DVR and is installed with a web browser. You just need to navigate to the DVR’s IP address and log in to the Web interface like you log in to the system locally.
This section describes local operations.
Please be aware that the parameters that are grayed out on the system user interface (UI) cannot be modified. The parameters and values displayed may vary with device model, and the figures in this manual are for illustration purpose only.
