To connect the computer to one or more DVRs, you must use a dedicated local area net-  
work (LAN). A dedicated LAN consists of the computer and DVRs only.  
The following setup procedure is for Windows 98. Details may vary slightly for Windows  
2000 or Windows Me.  
NOTE: IP addresses and  
subnet masks must be set  
correctly. Do not make or

OPERATION  
RESTRICTIONS  
The playback speed of the DX3016RX is determined by the computer’s processing speed,  
type of playback devices used, network traffic, and other factors. For these reasons, there  
will be cases where the software’s playback speed does not match the recording intervals  
of the DVR.  
Depending on the condition of the DVR recording (for example, if the date and time infor-  
mation are in reverse order), there may be instances when playback, searches, and other  
functions cannot be correctly performed.  
Depending on the printer or printer driver used, there may be instances where images and/  
or text data are not printed correctly.  
The DX3016RX consumes a large amount of memory in order to display and update image  
data. Avoid running other application programs while using the DX3016RX.  
The DVR’s Lock function is activated when using the DX3016RX software, which prevents  
use of the RS-232C terminal and the front panel buttons (except the camera buttons).  
After disconnecting from the DVR, use a ballpoint pen or similar instrument to press the  
REMOTE communication button on the DVR to enable the front panel buttons and the  
RS-232C terminal.  
The quality of the images displayed by the DX3016RX depends on the image quality set-  
tings used by the recorder at the time of recording. Other factors, however, will also affect  
quality when images are displayed at higher than 100 percent magnification.  
START A VIEWING SESSION  
To begin a remote viewing session, select Dx3016rx under Programs in the Start menu,  
and then select DX3016RX. The DX3016RX main screen appears.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
Refer to the following procedures if problems occur during network connection.  
1. Confirm that the cable is physically connected. If a switching hub is used, check that  
the connection has not been made to the hub’s cascade port. Recent connectors fea-  
ture a guard that makes it difficult to insert the connector all the way into the recorder;  
check to see that the connector is all the way in.  
2. Check the IP addresses and the subnet masks of the PC and the DVR(s). Check that  
the network address segments match. Confirm that the PC address segments are  
unique. Confirm that settings are not identical to other network terminals or IP ad-  
dresses.  
3. Confirm that the IP address entered using PING is correct. Do not enter 0 (for ex-  
ample, 001). Be sure to enter a space between “ping” and the IP address.  
4. Change cables.  
5. Restart the PC and the DVR(s). The switching hub address is entered into memory  
when the equipment is restarted.  
6. Leave the connected units alone for a little while with the power ON. Depending on the  
type of switching hub used, there are instances where the IP address of a new device  
is not recognized. Leave the units alone for an extended period of time (more than 20  
minutes), and then check their condition.  
7. Replace the switching hub if one is used.  
8. Test the computer’s Ethernet card. Enter 127.0.0.1 in the PING utility and press the  
Enter (or Return) key. If a correct response is not returned (that is, the device manager  
does not show “!” or “?”), check to see that the Ethernet card driver software is in-  
stalled properly. Remove the driver for the Ethernet card once, and then reinstall it.
