PV-500 L4i Feature Focus:
First P2P / IP DVR from LawMate for outdoor use with a separate camera!
This is the first DVR from Lawmate that supports a separate camera, that can be body-worn, and used outdoors. Previous models were focused on Mini DVR cameras that had the power supply from the cord and were for indoor use only. However, when combined with the BA-4400 extended battery, or the
7200 mAh Lithium-ion Battery, the PV-500L4i can operate up to 400 min, respectively 700 min.
Compatible with analog cameras!
Great News was that we finally have an IP DVR that can be operated with LawMates analog cameras. As you might know, the PV-500HDW DVR series is only compatible with the BU-18HD cameras designed specifically for them. However, not only can the PV-500L4i work with all analog cameras from Lawmate, but it is also compatible with analog cameras from other manufacturers!
How to use the PV-500 L4i DVR:
- Power on the device. With the camera connected to the DVR, insert the SD card into the SD card slot.
- Press the Power ON/OFF button for 2 seconds (1. in the quick manual), after the device is powered on for 40 sec, it starts recording automatically.
- Wi-Fi - When the device is powered on, press (1) to turn On/Off Wi-Fi, and after 40 seconds the Wi-Fi will be enabled.
- There are three important steps regarding the passwords and setup of the device:
- Default Wi-Fi password: 88888888
- Manual or QR code scan of the ID and password from the device itself (Note: in the PV-500L4i it is located under the BA-2200 battery, so it is best to write it down)
- Entering the router name and password in the Device Management section of the App (exact same router name as stated on your device).
- After these steps, it is important to let the device configure itself for 30 sec, and then manually restart it. Refresh the app and start recording via IP.
Note:
It is very important to enter the exact same router name as stated on your device when configuring it in the App.
Important IP setup Tip - Obligatory deleting of the device from the Device Management section of the App if you wish to switch phones. Otherwise, the device will be linked to the phone via the server and you will not be able to connect to the IP via other smartphone/s.
For detailed instructions on the P2P / IP connection setup, please refer to the IP Cam Manual below.
New info on SSID: it turns out that IP products (such as this one) cannot change the SSID name. Wi-Fi products only can change the SSID name. However, once connected to the IP the device's name is the same as your router name.
24 Months Warranty.
