    I have a HiLook consumer level NVR. Can I change the camera name?

    Hi, and thanks for the response. I tried your idea but the following happened. Oh well, it's not too confusing with just 2 cameras so I'll have to put away my little bit of OCD!

    I have a HiLook consumer level NVR. Can I change the camera name?

    Hi. I have a HiLook Model 104-MH NVR with 5 Tb HDD. Just 2 cameras attached. Because it is consumer level it has a much less detailed interface. In it I have a camera named "FrontCam" within the camera itself, and that is what is seen on the video. BUT, the same camera name within the NVR is...

    That's on my list to do tonight thanks, but I wondered how important the other settings such as plug n play are. Oh well, experimentation coming up. Thanks.

    Good evening. Just a note to say thank you. I've not been looking at this forum since I last posted, work and other family issues have kept me focussed elsewhere so my apologies for not responding before now. Because I don't know enough, and when I (mis)read the specs when I bought it I...

    Your red line to the PC, '1' is a duplicate of my black line just below it. Your red line to the NVR, '2' is also a duplicate. Your red line '1' from the POE to the switch is just the line you crossed out below. Your red line '2' from the POE to the camera is the same as the dotted line above...
