I mean does it work without a keyboard?
I just got one. It is a 'mini 1U series'.
Step 6 is 'local login' and it warns about too many failures. But how to attempt to log in? There's a usb mouse came with it. Are we to stick a usb keyboard in there instead, is that the idea?
I tried to fire it up but got an 'out of range' message on my screen.
googled that and it seems to be mismatch of resolution. could well be. very ancient old little screen I used for that. maybe too old. but is there anything i can do to lower the resolution the nvr is putting out?
and I stuck my PoE lead from an IP (dahua) cam into one of the ports as something for it to look at. Of course nothing happened because of this screen thing. But when I tried to put that camera back into the PoE switch it used to be in I couldn't/can't find it on the network.
It is no longer accessible under the IP it had.
Does the NVR change IP's when something plugs into it, like a gateway serving out dynamic IP's?
I thought the IP had been made permanent when I set it up. Not so?
Can I make the IP''s of my cameras permanent?
Damned if I know just now how to get to this camera and fix its IP. I think the router sees it, I see an ethernet device there that is probably it. But it has no IP and I don't know how to get the router to give it one.
Am I lost in a typical well-worn cul-de-sac that many blunder into and the way out is clear? Or am i lost in a convoluted mess all of my own?
p.s. I do believe this is a PoE NVR? It has a 48v power supply so I guess that's right. (with only 1.5A max ).
p.p.s. there's no on/off switches on these cameras so I guess unplugging the power cord (i.e. the ethernet/power cord) wouldn't/couldn't blow the circuitry in any way?
