6 English
bNetwork Connection Restrictions
Connections are restricted depending on the connections
state of users and the content of the network settings. If a
DVR cannot be connected, confirm whether the connection
falls under the following restrictions.
There is a limit to the number of users who can connect
simultaneously.
When a connection is not possible due to restrictions on the
number of simultaneous connections, the message "THE
UNIT IS BUSY!" will display.
1 Up to four users can connect simultaneously to one
DVR.
2 Only one user of either ID2 or ID3 can connect.
3 When a connection is duplicated, the user with the
higher user level will take precedence.
Example:
• If an ID1 user attempts to connect at the same time
as four other ID1 users, the connection will not be
allowed.
• If an ID2 user attempts to connect at the same time
as four other ID1 users, the ID1 user who connected
last will be disconnected and the ID2 user will be
allowed to connect in the ID1 users' place.
• If an ID3 user attempts to connect at the same time
as three other ID1 user and an ID2 user, since ID2
and ID3 users are not able to connect simultaneously,
the ID2 user will be disconnected and the ID3 user
will be allowed to connect in the ID2 user's place.
Connection is restricted by the [NETWORK CONTROL]
settings of NETWORK SET of the DVR.

restrictions established by NETWORK SET or the operating
state of the DVR, the message "THE UNIT IS NOT
READY!" will display.
