Chapter 1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing PLANET 32-Ch Network Video Recorder. The Network
Video Recorder is designed for use within a surveillance system, and performs
recording and playback pictures from network cameras in the system. It is a
recording device using a hard disk drive to record camera pictures instead of using
video tapes so that pictures recorded by repeated overwriting will not experience
deterioration of the recorded picture quality. Up to 32 (for NVR-3210, NVR-3250
and NVR-3280) cameras can be connected via a network and it is possible to
record their camera pictures. It is possible to perform the settings or operate the
NVR using a web browser installed on a PC connected to a network, or remote
controller. Recorded video can be played back from remote site by a PC. Up to 4
PCs (web browsers) can access this unit concurrently and it is possible to perform
the settings and operate this unit. The NVR is compatible with most major brand
cameras and its ability to automatically search and find the available cameras on
the network can greatly reduce the user effort when expanding the system
