1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
The iCanServer540R is a state-of-the-art 4-channel recording video server and A/V server
supporting 4 channel D1 video. By combining standard A/V codec technologies such as MPEG4
and ADPCM, embedded web server, embedded streaming server, various network protocols and
Hard Disk manipulation technologies, iCanServer540R offers quality service required for a
premium grade DVR and A/V server. An example of the operations is : simultaneous video
recording, on-line streaming and video playback which no other DVR has ever done before. The
iCanServer540R can be connected, controlled and monitored from a remote location through an
IP address. iCanServer540R can acquire various analog video data from CCTV cameras, DVD, or
TV tuners. Based on Embedded Software Solution the iCanServer540R ensures high performance
and stability and provides wide range of applications to the owners.
Dual streaming mode provides an ideal environment when low speed network is used for
connecting iCanServer540R. This feature assures high quality video recording on the HDD, while
providing lower quality on-line streaming data to connected user.

2.4. PC Requirements
AV streaming data from iCanServer540R can be observed through iNVR program which is a
viewing & recording program running on a PC. Minimum requirement of the PC is described
below:
Brief information for rapid installation is provided in this section. For more detailed information
you are recommended to refer to pertinent documentations provided with the product or refer to
iCanServer540R does not function properly if there is no video and audio input.
Refer to the following table. You have to connect at least one Video In.
You also can connect to iCanServer540R for video and audio streaming via a conventional web
browser such as Internet Explorer by typing the IP address assigned to iCanServer540R into the
browser.
iCanServer540R supports LAN, xDSL, and Cable modem. It also supports shared IP environment
where single IP address is shared by at least 2 IP devices. Refer to [IP-Installer User’s
Guide] for details of setting the IP address for iCanServer540R.
the IP sharing device to forward packet data with unique port number (RTSP and HTTP) to unique
internal IP address (local IP address). If you only plan to access multiple units from within a local
area network, you do not need to change the RTSP and HTTP port numbers, unless other IP
sharing devices sit in-between the client and the IP video products. For more detailed information
regarding the use of IP sharing device refer to the document [Use of Private IP network using
IP-sharing-device].
1. Follow through steps 1 to 4 in Section 2.5 to assign IP address and other network parameters
to iCanServer540R.
2. Install iCanServer540R and connect it to xDSL or Cable modem as in Figure 3-2.
When fixed IP address is assigned to the xDSL or Cable modem, follow the same way as
assigning IP address for the case of LAN using IP-installer. To enable the notification of the
changed IP address to the user over e-mail when the IP address is changed in floating IP
environment, you have to assign the e-mail address when user name and password are
input using IP-installer. (Management server provides a convenient way of
connecting to your video server under dynamic IP environment. Please refer to
the Application note regarding “Management Server” in the CD.)
When connecting iCanServer540R to xDSL or Cable modem, usually regular LAN cable
is required. But since some modems has crossover connections, please contact your
service provider for detailed information.

• iCanServer540R in viewing mode, neither channel name nor video is display and
eventually timeout message is shown up.
Check if there is input video source to the channel. And check if there is a firewall in the
network. Check if the network is NAT type.
If the network is NAT type, you need port mapping. It is be achieved by setting the NAT
server to forward all packets coming in through a specific port to iCanServer540R.
z In Basic Setup of Admin Mode, lower the “Quality”. High quality means more data.
You can also set the “Max. Bandwidth” to higher value. But this value must be lower
than the maximum upload speed of your network. For example, if the maximum
uploading bandwidth of the network is 400Kbps, set the total “Max. Bandwidth” of the
4 channels to 384Kbps. If you set it higher, the video image can be corrupted with
artifacts.
Ask your network manager or ISP for maximum uploading bandwidth of the network.
This could be caused by performance limitation of the PC. Do not run too many programs while
running viewer program. The other reason could be missing data while transmission from
iCanServer540R.
• Mosaic phenomenon.
Mosaic phenomenon occurs when not enough network bandwidth is available considering the
resolution and frame rate of the video.
Example is 704x480 video with low Max. Bandwidth.
Users are recommended to adjust resolution and frame rates to lower values for lower
bandwidth network.
3. How can I maintain high quality video recording when I’m using low speed network
iCanServer540R has Dual streaming mode that enables high quality video recording on the HDD,
while providing lower quality video to on-line users. This feature is enabled by selecting “Enable
High Quality Recording” in basic set-up mode. (Refer to 5.2 for more detailed information.)

2. Click "Browse..." to find the files you want to use for upgrade. This will open a "Choose file"
dialogue window. The file extension is “ief”.
3. When you've found the file, click "Open." This will select the file and close the "Choose file"
dialogue window.
4. Click the "INSTALL" button. An alert message box will pop up. Click “OK” button then it will
start uploading the file. This may take some time.
5. Upgrade completion message will appear after the system upgrade has been completed.
7. After rebooting, log on to the administration mode again and click the “Status Report” in the
left side.
1. Remove the 4 screws joining the front panel to the body of iCanServer540R.
2. After removing the front panel you can find power cable and IDE flat cable connected to the
hard disk at the center of the housing.
4. At the bottom of the housing, there are 4 screws. Remove the screws.
5. Tilt the housing slightly to the front. The hard disk will be slided out.
6. Slide in a new hard disk and follow the reverse procedure to install the hard disk into
iCanServer540R.
7. If a hard disk is a one that has never been used for iCanServer540R, you need to format the
hard disk using format command of iNVR. In order to format the hard disk, you should run
‘iNVR’, click on it, and select to format the hard disk. Refer to [iNVR’ user’s
