6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your SANNCE NVR system:

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the NVR unit and cameras with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure ventilation openings on the NVR are free from dust and obstructions to prevent overheating.
• Firmware Updates: Check the SANNCE official website regularly for firmware updates. Updating the firmware can improve system stability, add new features, and enhance security. Follow the provided instructions carefully during the update process.
• Hard Drive Health: Monitor the health of the internal hard drive through the NVR's system settings. If any warnings appear, consider backing up data and replacing the drive.
• Password Security: Regularly change your NVR and app passwords to strong, unique combinations to prevent unauthorized access.
• Cable Management: Ensure all cables are securely connected and free from damage. Loose connections can lead to signal loss or intermittent issues.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter:

• No Video Output on Monitor:
  • Check if the NVR is powered on.
  • Verify the HDMI/VGA cable connection between the NVR and the monitor.
  • Ensure the monitor is set to the correct input source (HDMI/VGA).
• No Camera Image:
  • Ensure the camera is properly connected to a PoE port on the NVR.
  • Check the Ethernet cable for damage.
  • Verify the camera's IP address and network settings within the NVR interface.
  • Restart the NVR and the problematic camera.
• Cannot Access NVR Remotely:
  • Ensure the NVR is connected to your router and has internet access.
  • Check network settings on the NVR (DHCP enabled or static IP configured correctly).
  • Verify that the mobile app is connected to the correct NVR ID/QR code.
  • Check your router's firewall settings; port forwarding might be required for direct access (though P2P/Cloud access usually bypasses this).
• Recording Not Working:
  • Check if the hard drive is installed, initialized, and healthy in the NVR's settings.
  • Verify recording schedules and motion detection settings for the channels.
  • Ensure there is sufficient storage space on the hard drive.
