Remote Access via
Computer Network
Via its connection jack LAN (23), it will be possible to
connect the video recorder to an individual com-
puter, to a local computer network or, e. g. via a
SYSTEM/ SYSTEM
router, to the Internet. For correct configuration,
comprehensive knowledge of computer network
technology will be essential.

5) For remote access, the IP address of the recorder
must be known. However, many Internet providers
change it each time a connection is made
(dynamic IP address). To solve this problem, use
a DDNS server, i. e. a network service offered by
several service providers. After registration with a
service provider, you will select a definite subdo-
main for addressing the recorder and a user name
and a password for access. If the DDNS service

Use of this service will usually be configured in
the router connecting the recorder to the Internet,
but will also be possible with the recorder.
Each time a connection is made, the router or
recorder will send its current IP address to the
DDNS server which will store it and accordingly
route any queries made to the subdomain to the
recorder.
To configure the recorder for using a DDNS
server, click the button

14.2 Remote control via the programs Win-
dows Internet Explorer or 9D-VIEWER
Via the network, the programs Windows Internet
Explorer (IE) or the 9D-VIEWER provided will be
)
able to access the recorder in order to display live
images of the cameras or to replay recordings
regardless of the view selected on the recorder. Fur-
thermore, it will be possible to change settings of the
recorder.
When the first connection is made via the IE, after
entering the IP address of the recorder (or the pub-
lic IP address of the router to which the recorder has
been connected) in the address bar, the IE will load
an extension required (ActiveX control element)
IP
from the recorder and will install it on the computer.
If necessary, relax the security settings of the IE to
allow this process.
As an alternative to operation via the IE, use the
program 9D-VIEWER. This program is supplied on a
CD with the recorder and offers the same possibili-
ties as operation via the IE. To install, start the pro-
gram "D9-PCviewer-en.exe" and follow the instruc-
tions on the screen. After installation, start the
program file "D9-VIEWER.exe".
After starting or after making the connection, the
window "USER LOGIN" (fig. 51) will appear.
Window "USER LOGIN" for remote access
1) For "IP ADDRESS", enter the IP address of the
recorder (already entered in the IE) or the public
IP address of the router to which the recorder has
been connected.
