Forgot the NVR login password?
- Tell us the complete date and time shown on the recorder — year, month, day, hour, minute, and second — or take a photo and send it to us. We will give you a temporary password. Use this password to log in to the recorder, then go to System Settings → User Management → Change Password. Enter this temporary password as the old password, leave the new password blank, and click OK. Once done, the recorder will restore factory defaults and have no password.

- Restore factory settings via remote assistance. Use a network cable to connect the recorder to a router that can access the internet, install the PC client software on a computer under that router, open the software, and search for the recorder's IP address. On this computer, log in to QQ, then send a remote assistance request to technical support.
