Step 1: check the setting and configuration
Make sure the auto recycle option is enabled in Mainconsole setting.
Make sure auto login, auto startup of Mainconsole and schedule are enabled in Mainconsole setting.
Remove NOD 32if NOD32 is installed since it will generate a great amount of log files (.tmp files) with tremendous size to
occupy a lot of hard drive space and cause stop recording.
Do not adjust the system clock after recording is started.
Do not unplug removable disk when system is recording.
Check if any quota limit is set in your hard drive.
Check if the hard drive is set as “read only” or if a folder named “1” exists.
Check if the hard drive is damaged or there are bad sectors inside.
Make sure you do not use network hard drive.
Step 2: If system stops recording which is caused by insufficient hard drive space.
Check the recording paths are the same in FileRecord.ini and Storage location.
Remove the oldest few day video folders or move them to other hard drive.
Check dberr.log (it can be found in D-ViewCam installation folder). If there are a lot of errors of Eventlog and Systemlog in
dberr.log, and Eventlog.mdb and Systemlog.mdb is oversized caused by extremely frequent events or scheduler is set as
record on motion while the cameras focus on a dynamic background.
The space for system hard drive must be more than 800 MB and the space of data hard drive must be more than 500 MB for
Mainconsole to run recording.
If you still experience stop recording, please use DB tools to repair/rebuild database to re-associated recorded video.
In general, this error message is caused by network problem so always
check your network connection first.

138D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Section 4 - FAQs
Please notice that if you met the following error message, it means your
port 80 was occupied by the other device, therefore, you have to
change it to another port number.
Step 2: Enable port forwarding in your router
After that, what we have to do is to find the public IP address of your router and set port forwarding on the router to NVR
LAN IP.
• You can see the public IP address of your router in its configuration menu.
• You can also configure NAT (or port forwarding) port 80, 5150 and 5160 to your NVR’s LAN IP (e.g. 192.168.3.30) in the
router.
• Port forwarding looks something like this in your router:
You have to forward 3 ports, one for 80, one for 5150 and one for 5160.
All 3 ports should point to e.g. 192.168.3.30
After you have successfully forward the 3 ports in your router, you will be able to
access remote live viewer and remote playback from the internet.
It is often caused by the old temporary IE components in Windows. Please remove

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the
copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public
License (also called “this License”). Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application
programs (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A
“work based on the Library” means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work
containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modications and/or translated straightforwardly into
another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modication”.)
Open Source Software Notication
159D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. For a library, complete
source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denition les, plus
the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope.
The act of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its
contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether
that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in any medium,
provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer
of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a
copy of this License along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection
in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library,
and copy and distribute such modications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet
all of these conditions:
a) The modied work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the les modied to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date
of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
License.
160D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
d) If a facility in the modied Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program
that uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a
good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or table, the facility still
operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-dened independent of
the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function
must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modied work as a whole. If identiable sections of that work are not derived from
the Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License,
and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the
same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the
terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every
part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the
Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy
of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary
GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary
GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any
other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License
applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
161D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable
form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
access to copy the source code from the same place satises the requirement to distribute the source code, even
though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being
compiled or linked with it, is called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work
of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library
(because it contains portions of the Library), rather than a “work that uses the library”. The executable is therefore
covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header le that is part of the Library, the object code for the
work may be a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially
signicant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true
is not precisely dened by law.
If such an object le uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and
small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object le is unrestricted, regardless of whether
it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under
Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms
162D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly
with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with the Library
to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided
that the terms permit modication of the work for the customer’s own use and reverse engineering for debugging such
modications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use
are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright
notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user
to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including
whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the
work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable “work that uses the Library”,
as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modied
executable containing the modied Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of denitions
les in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modied denitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at
run time a copy of the library already present on the user’s computer system, rather than copying library functions
into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modied version of the library, if the user installs one, as
long as the modied version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specied
in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to
copy the above specied materials from the same place.
163D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library” must include any data and utility programs
needed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need
not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,
kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together
in an executable that you distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with
other library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate
distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that
you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other
library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and
explaining where to nd the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under
this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from
you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission
to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept
this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your
164D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library
or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives
a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and
conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You
are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited
to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the
conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence
you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution
of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy
both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the
section is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest
validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution
system which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide
range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the
author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted
interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical
distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
165D-Link D-ViewCam User Manual
Appendix A - Open Source Software Notication
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License
from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address
new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library species a version number of this License which
applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version
or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version
number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible
with these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,
write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse
of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY,

ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY

Appendix B - Minimum Hardware Requirement - How to calculate S value
Minimum Hardware Requirement - How to calculate S value
Parameter denition:
M: parameter of resolution of camera.
Resolution 5 M 3 M 2 M 1 M VGA / D1 CIF
Value of M37 27 22 14 3 1
N: FPS of Camera
S=M*N
For example: 16 channel system
a) 8 camera at 1 Megapixel resolution with 10FPS
b) 3 cameras at D1 resolution with 15FPS
c) 5 cameras at CIF resolution with 30FPS
a) M=14; N=10, S=14*10=140
b) M=3; N=15, S=3*15=45
c) M=1; N=30, S=1*30=30
S of All Cam.=(8*140)+(3*45)+(5*30)=1405
Therefore, the minimum hardware requirement is C level.
