1. DVR/NVR First of all, upgrade the firmware to the specific version, then restore default setup on the interface of “SETTING-SYSTEM-DEFAULT”: Note: We take Dahua firmware for example here.

Figure 1-1 1.1. GUI 1.1.1. Initialization Step.1 After system booted up, default video display is the initialization interface, which couldn’t be canceled by right-clicking. See Figure 1-2

Figure 1 2 Step.2 Please input your password twice and set a prompt question. The new password must be 8 to 32 characters long, and include at least two types from letter(s), number(s) and symbol(s). Note: Prompt question is a custom prompt message for helping customers remember password. Step.3 Click next to set the pattern password. This step can be skipped. See Figure 1-3. Note:

Figure 1-3 Step.4 You can set the assigned email address and security questions here to reset the password in case you forgot. Boxes of email and security questions are checked by default, and could be skipped by unchecking the boxes. See Figure 1-4.

Figure 1-4 Step.5 Click “save” to finish the device initialization. Note: Pattern password, assigned email address and security question can be added or changed after initialization on “SETTING-SYSTEM-ACCOUNT” interface. 1.1.2. Reset Password Firs of all, click “Forgot password” on the system login interface. See Figure 1-5.

Figure 1-5 Method 1. By security questions: If you have set the security questions, you can reset the password by answering these questions. See Figure 1-6. Note: Security questions are only valid on local GUI.

Figure 1-6 Method 2. By scanning QR code and inputting security code got from service email. Step.1 If you haven’t set the assigned email address before, you will have a chance to reset the email address. See Figure 1-7. If the assigned has been set, system will skip to Step.2.

Figure 1-7 Step.2 Download Dahua APP (EASY4IP, DMSS) to scan the QR code from “Easy4ip”-“Me”-‘’Setting”-“Reset Password” to scan QR code, the security code will be sent to your assigned email. If you don’t have Dahua APP, please use other APP to scan the QR code and get code message, then send the code string to support_rpwd@global.dahuatech.com (just for Dahua devices) as an attachment. See Figure 1-8 Note: The service email address of Dahua devices and General devices are different. No matter you choose Dahua APP or email to send QR code, the security code will just be sent to the assigned email.

Figure 1-8 Step.3 Click “Next”, and reset password.

1.2. Web 1.2.1. Initialization Step.1 Come to the web interface, you will see initialization interface, which couldn’t be canceled or deleted. See Figure 1-9.

Figure 1-9 Step.2 Please input your password twice and set a assigned email address. Assigned email address is an optional item. Note: If there is no assigned email set before, it will be unable to reset password through web. Step.3 Click “Save” to live view interface. 1.2.2. Reset Password Step.1 Click “Forgot password” on login interface. See Figure 1-10.

Figure 1-10 Step.2 Download Dahua APP (EASY4IP, DMSS) to scan the QR code from “Easy4ip”-“Me”-‘’Reset Password” to scan QR code, the security code will be sent to your assigned email. If you don’t have Dahua APP, please use other APP to scan the QR code and get code message, and send the code string to support_rpwd@global.dahuatech.com (just for Dahua devices) as an attachment. See Figure 1-11. Note: If there is no assigned email set before, you will see prompt message as Figure 1-12.
