P2P Cloud DVR remote Access via a (remote) PC Using Guarding Vision PC Client Software

[DocAElstein]

(Logout and) Login with Sannce P2P account to import

At the point where we are in this worked example, we are logged in with a Sannce P2P account with user name cloudp2pee which holds information for, and has authorisation to, access our DVR remotely over the internet.
In Main View we see this:

, and in Device Management we see this.

Now we logout, https://i.postimg.cc/xCgRk4Fq/Logout...Management.jpg
Because we have the Cloud P2P Device selected, we are returned to the large Sannce P2P cloud login window
https://i.postimg.cc/XJnLYbLT/Logout...e-selected.jpg , so then we re login https://i.postimg.cc/136LjDzM/Re-login.jpg . Typically the last username used would be remembered and written in already, https://i.postimg.cc/sDbkmT3v/Re-log...count-used.jpg . Note that we are only interested in logging in, - the registration no longer concerns us, so we ignore the Register button, https://i.postimg.cc/NFzWW4TC/Re-log...logging-in.jpg
We enter the password, and hit login, https://i.postimg.cc/KcpSkZV7/Enter-...hen-Log-in.jpg
Some processing appears to be happening, https://i.postimg.cc/Yq4cQ5K5/Some-p...ng-is-done.jpg , and then note that typically , if all has gone well, a small black window pops up for a second to inform that “Importing succeeded” https://i.postimg.cc/kG401ZVt/Import...ack-window.jpg


Now, in Device Management we see the same as we did just before logging out.

But the first thing we notice new in Main View is that we now have a + appearing to the left of the folder corresponding to the P2P account name , cloudp2pee https://i.postimg.cc/N0TyPChF/appear...-P-account.jpg

If we then
either
_ hit the restart/refresh symbol, https://i.postimg.cc/MTmnzcp8/Hit-cy...-P-account.jpg
or
_ click on that + ,to reveal the camera “resources” in a drop down list, and then double click on the first camera listed, https://i.postimg.cc/kgL6s3pL/Hit-th...-P-account.jpg
, then we now see the picture.

( In this worked example, I just have one camera connected, and so it is best to select the single screen, 1-Screen view , since no attempt is then made to cycle through different cameras, and this proves in the practice to give a more stable picture )

( Currently we still have our computer connected to the same router/ modem as the DVR, but that is just because of how I have organised and developed all of the explanations so far. I could now disconnect the computer from my router/modem, and go to any remote location, and then, as long as I connect my computer to the internet , ( anywhere in the world ), I should still see the same picture, because I am accessing the DVR over the internet. )


So finally we have finished the main purpose of this Blog.


We progressed by firstly obtaining a working local LAN access to the DVR. But that was not necessary. So in the next posts, we explain how to obtain a working remote P2P access of the DVR , starting at a remote location , with a fresh installation of the Guarding Vision Software. We will not concern ourselves with a working local LAN access to the DVR.
