Changing password of the IPC without knowing the old one

I have connected a new IPC to an old NVR (DHI-NVR4216-4KS2) and NVR initialized the IPC, including setting the password.
There is a setting on NVR for a device password, which I assume is given to all auto-initialized devices, but I don't know it, I only have general admin password of the NVR, which was installed by someone else long time ago.
I would like to change some settings of the camera, but since it has been initialized I can't login to it any more with the factory defaults.
If I will change the device password on NVR, will NVR give it to all the cameras, or will I loose connection with them?
Is there a way of uninitializing the IPCs, so I will be able to set a new password and send it to the IPCs?
