Question: I don’t have a TV monitor, is there any way I could connect the 2MP DVR to my laptop monitor?

Unfortunately, a laptop monitor cannot be used directly as a monitor for the DVR. However, you can use the TIGERSECU CMS client for remote control and viewing on your laptop.

Steps to Use the TIGERSECU CMS Client:

Initial Setup:
- You will need a TV or computer monitor initially to set up the DVR and obtain necessary information (such as the UID and QR code).
Download the CMS Client:
- After the initial setup, you can disconnect the monitor and use the TIGERSECU CMS client for remote viewing and backup.

Hi, I have a HD 2MP DVR. I don’t have a monitor that matches the resolution on the device and therefore, I can’t finish the initial setup. What advice can you give me?

  Dear customer, the default resolution for some of the 2MP DVRs is 1920*1080. Can you connect the DVR to a higher-resolution monitor or TV temporarily? If it shows the images, you can lower the DVR resolution to match your current monitor’s resolution.
  Please email us at service@tigersecu.com if you have any questions.
