Configuring the TVN 20 summary

The TVN 20’s initial configuration should be completed
using the NVR 20 Browser. This manual will show you
the steps necessary to quickly configure a fully
operational recording solution.

Configuring a TVN 20 system requires:

1. Giving the TVN 20 an appropriate IP address with

the TruVision Device Finder tool.

2. Adding IP Cameras to the unit.

3. Configure the IP cameras.

4. Define the recording schedule and the recording

type for the IP Cameras (Scheduled, Continuous,
Motion/Event).

5. Define any alarm output behaviors, local unit audible

alerts, local-unit relay outputs as well as notifications
to Interlogix’s TruVision Navigator video software.

6. All hard drives are pre-configured into a single

recording group and allow all connected cameras to
record the same duration of video across all
cameras (i.e., all cameras will record for the same
number of days)

Configuration of the TVN 20 is optimized for out of the
box operation. All IP cameras added are defaulted to
record continuously. All system events HDD failure,
video loss etc. are set to report to the TruVision
Navigator software once the address of the TruVision
Navigator server is configured.
