From the beginning:
- LTS always recommend the customer using the same product series for the installation.
For example: (LTN) with (CMIP IP Camera) - Mix and match with different product series will cause more time during the installation. For example, the Plug & Play feature will be disable from any LTN NVR. need to set up manually.
- By default, the LTDH camera is set to the H.265. (H.265 / H.264H)
If you got un-support stream type error, that usually means the NVR is only compatible with H.264. - Strongly Recommend using LTN K series or better model which support H.265.
- Recommend connect LTDH camera to the regular PoE switch, not connect to the built-in PoE.
- You will need more time to set up for the first time if you connect to the built-in PoE on NVR.
- You must have a PC computer with a network cable to manually program it (one at the time) if you have more than 1 IP camera.
Here is the information for how to set up the (LTN) Platinum NVR with the (LTDH) Sapphire IP camera.
For LTN with built-in PoE situation: |
Connect Windows PC to the built-in PoE port:
Please connect a PC to the built-in PoE port and set up 2 IP address for the connection.
192.168.188.250 and 192.168.1.250
How to Setup PC with two IP address:
Right click on the Network icon, Open Network & Internet settings.
Open Ethernet Properties,
Select (TCP/IPv4), click Properties. Setup the 1st IP address (for exp: 192.168.188.250), click Advanced. Add the 2nd IP address (192.168.1.250)

Troubleshoot:
If you get the Stream type from the IP camera is not supported error, usually that is related to the video encoding format not support issue. Most older model NVR support the H.264. Therefore, you need go to the IP camera setting (Not the NVR) change from H.265 to H.264H and connect it again.
Final Check
- Check the IPC Date/ Time. NVR wont update it automatically.
- Motion Detection Checking.
- If you got the unsupport stream type error, please switch it to H.264H.
- Check the recording playback.
- Built-in-PoE won’t support any other network region than .188.xxx
- Channel number limits to CH1-CH16
