Before mounting the camera, connect it directly to the port number on the NVR built in POE switch corresponding to the channel it will be working on so it can plug and play. Once playing, using the NVR’s monitor output GUI go to:
-Menu >>> Camera Setup >>> Click edit button for the channel in question >>> Change Adding method button from “Plug and Play” to “Manual” >>> Enter the password of the NVR at bottom >>> click Ok.
--The camera will now work an external POE switch that will be connected directly to the NVR internal POE switch on the channel programmed.
