Connecting a Camera
The EasyNVR is equipped with Plug N’ Play (PnP) ports that support Power over Ethernet (PoE)
capabilities for IP cameras. PnP enabled cameras can be connected to the recorder and begin
displaying video immediately with no manual configuration required. From the EasyNVR, you can
configure the camera channel individually; see the
Camera Setup section of this manual.
To connect IP cameras without PnP enabled, see the Device Search section of this manual.
