When supplying power to a NVS-30 for the first time, the device powers up in DHCP IP mode for connecting to a network with a DHCP server, such as through a router.
If connecting NVS-30 to a network without a DHCP server, you must set the device to Static IP mode by pressing the Record button on the device during its power-up sequence when the Record LED flashes.
The default Static IP address is 169.254.1.11
If the LED does not flash, press the Reset button located on the rear panel of the device to initiate a device reboot. During the power-up sequence (all LEDs illuminate), the Record LED should flash for three seconds.
If you lose you IP settings and do not want to perform a factory reset, connect a FAT or NTFS formatted thumb drive to the NVS-30's USB port 2.
The current IP address and status of the NVS-30 will save to the drive as a text file, which can then be viewed on a computer.

In Stream-and-record operating mode, if the current stream encoding resolution exceeds a width of 1280 and/or height of 720, and you want to record at a resolution greater than 1280×720, the stream and record settings must use the same encoding settings.
In this case, you must select the Use stream settings for recording option.
