For NVR models such as X5C, X5S-4W, X5S-8W, X5S-16L2, and X5S-16H, if your cameras cannot be linked in the Camera Management page on the monitor (Right Click > Menu > Camera > Camera), please follow the steps below:

If the cameras are connected to the router directly:

1. ensure the camera you tried to connect to is under the same LAN as the NVR.

2. ensure the camera is close to the NVR and there is no barrier such as a wall between them when connecting.

If the cameras are connected to the NVR’s Wi-Fi:

1. ensure the camera is close to the NVR and there is no barrier such as a wall between them when connecting.

Please follow the below steps to add your device:

1. Please ensure your NVR is online.

If prompted for a password during adding, please kindly note that the password would be the verification code that you could find on the white sticker of the NVR box.

If prompted for an encryption password when viewing a camera, please kindly note that the password would either be the login password you created for the NVR during the initial setup (if your cameras are set up by adding to NVR directly) or the verification code you could find on the white sticker of each camera you have (if your cameras are set up via EZVIZ app).

To reset the admin password, you may reset the NVR box by pressing the reset button (the password would be defaulted to the original device verification code on the label) or follow the below steps:

- Double right-click your mouse at the left bottom corner of the login window.
