Any idea how to initialize ip cameras (like dahua) on a xiongmai nvr?

I bought the nvr off Aliexpress. but finding a hard time initializing camera in it. any direction on how to do that?

If no other helpful responses, try this:

• Hopefully the NVR is ONVIF compliant and if so, insure ONVIF is enabled.
• Power up cam with 12VDC adapter, POE injector or POE switch.
• Perform hard reset on camera.
• Wait at least a full minute.
• Assign PC static IP of 192.168.1.25, subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
• Plug PC directly into camera if powered by 12VDC adapter or plug into cam's POE injector or POE switch.
• Open browser on PC and log into cam's embedded webGUI at 192.168.1.108.
• Enter (new) username and password for cam when asked.
• In "Settings", possibly under "Access Platform" insure ONVIF is enabled.
• In "Settings" =>"TCP/IP" select "DHCP" and click on "Save."
• Unplug 12VDC adapter if used, plug cam into NVR POE port.
• Wait to see if NVR locates camera; it may take several minutes.
• When camera is found by NVR, enter camera username and password that you gave the camera.
