By default, each camera within your HC20X kit comes pre-paired to the DVR. Additionally, your HC20X DVR has its own built-in Wi-Fi for secure, uninterrupted video transmission and recording. Pairing allows for the wireless transmission coming from the camera to be detected by the HC20X DVR. However, if you have a camera that needs to be replaced while under warranty, the replacement camera will similarly need to be paired to the DVR.
To pair a replacement camera to your DVR, please use the below steps:
1. Power on the replacement camera using the camera power adapter. Press and hold the reset button until you hear "Pleae be patient, camera is resetting" Release the reset button and wait until you hear "Camera is in pairing mode". Note: This should be done locally at the WNVR to avoid interference. |

6. Within the Wireless Add screen, the "Number of Cameras Connected" signifies those cameras that are already paired to the DVR and will not immediately reflect this new camera. Note: You cannot exceed the number of Wireless DVR channels you have. If you have a 4 channel system, the maximum number of cameras you can have paired is 4. |
