DVR with programmable outputs

Recommended Posts

I am interested in buying an 8CH DVR with programmable outputs because I want to send video of only 4 of the channels to the security department in my company and the other 4 channels just to watch them on my LCD inside my office. Any recommendation or suggestion on what to buy?

 

Thank you

To do what you want to be able to do you will need either a standalonde dvr or a pc based cctv system these can be connected to the internet by an ethernet port connected to a wireless router so you can then use the built in cctv system software to set up a remote connection by port forwarding some ports from of the cctv system software to ip address of your cctv system on your wireless router.

 

Then once the port forwarding is done you then go to a website called www.whatsmyipaddress.org and find out what your external ip address is it might look something like this 113.139.35.222 then once that is done go to iternet explorer and go to tools, internet options, security and custom level then you enable the following activex controls - download signed activex controls, download unsigned activex controls, initialize and script activex controls not marked as safe for scripting then once you have enabled those activex controls you then need to type in the external ip address into internet explorers address bar along with one of the port numbers from the cctv system software which is normally set to a default of 80 and is the http port so the ip address you would type into internet explorer would look like this http://113.139.35.222:80/ then press enter a box should apear beneath the tool bars at the top of the screen right click it and click download activex controls then once that is done all you need to do is login to view your cameras online anytime from anywhere in the world you can watch them live or watch back what they have recorded on previous days although you will need to keep the dvr on to bring the cameras up on the internet.
