Associate a video device with an ADC-CSVR2000P/2008P/2016P so that it can start recording footage. Video devices can be associated at any time using the Alarm.com Website.

A video device can only record video to a single SVR at a time. The video device’s existing SVR recording schedule must be deleted before the video device can be associated with a different SVR.

  11. Click Advanced Options (only available for some devices) to expand additional configuration settings:
    • Auto-find IP Address lets users either have the device choose the IP and port or enter that information themselves.
    • Maximum Bitrate affects the quality of the image. Higher values improve image quality and decrease the duration of the footage. Lower values do the opposite.
    • Enhanced Compression for Indoor Cameras maximizes the duration of the indoor camera’s recorded footage.

Recommendations for associating Wi-Fi devices to an ADC-CSVR2000P/08P/16P

Use an SG130 in the wireless connection configuration to significantly improve the experience when using wireless devices in conjunction with the Stream Video Recorder.

When connecting a wireless device (i.e., Alarm.com wireless cameras and/or POE to Wi-Fi bridges) to a compatible SVR, it is recommended to enroll these devices to an SG130 for their network connection. The SG130 is designed to internally handle DHCP leases for its attached devices as well as the routing required to allow them to successfully stream to the SVR.
