This device allows you to record video from digital video surveillance IP-based cameras, and with it you can view the images from the camera on any monitor or TV.


The word "Video" in the Russian language has a very broad meaning: it means and motor recorder (Car DVR) and recorder for cameras transmitting analog signal (DVR) and recorder for IP-chambers (NVR). Because of this, there is often confusion.

This DVR is NVR and works only with IP-cameras connected via LAN cables and switch network (ethernet switch). There are three versions of the recorder supporting up to 4, 8 and 16 cameras. They are standing $ 23.99, $ 29.59 and $ 39.99. I ordered a 4-channel, but somehow came 8-channel. It supports up to 8 cameras with a resolution of up to 4 MB or 4 chambers with a resolution of up to 5 MB.

There are several ways to control the registrar:

- USB-mouse on the monitor connected to the recorder (most convenient for initial setup);
- Infrared remote control on a monitor (remote not included, and management is less convenient than a mouse);

- On a computer through Internet Explorer (other browsers are not supported);
- On a computer using the standard or alternative CMS program;
- On your smartphone through the cloudy XMEye application.

View live video from the cameras and can record on a monitor or TV connected to the Registrar, on the computer (in IE or CMS program) on your smartphone through XMEye (data is transmitted through the cloud, so your smartphone can be even on the other side of the ball).

The main "chip" of the registrar - the ability to use the card as the main storage MicroSD memory up to 256 GB or flash drive (most other recorders can record only to hard disk). However, hard drives are also supported, both directly connected via the eSATA port (requires a separate power supply for the drive) and external disks connected via USB.

If you only use motion recording, MicroSD cards to 32GB is enough for a few weeks recording.

The front panel of the registrar memory card slot, turn light, IR receiver and the combined eSATA / USB connector. An important point: if you turn on the recorder detects that the drive is connected to it (USB flash drive, memory card, hard disk) is not formatted in its format, it starts formatting, if you do not give up for ten seconds.

The rear panel connectors are VGA and HDMI for connecting a monitor or TV, RJ45 connector, two USB connectors and connector MicroUSB power.


Logger is powered from 5 volts and this is another difference from conventional recorders that use a 12-volt power supply. Included adapter cable and 5V 1.5A USB-MicroUSB. No remote, the mouse, either.


Consumes registrar 0.43-0.51 A.


In order to disassemble the recorder need to detach the four rubber feet and remove the four self-tapping screws.


The board stated its name - HS-NVR-T3536D-8. There are three connectors unsoldered. One five-pin connector J2 wired, but its purpose is unknown.


Heat sink on the CPU is not. After two hours of operation processor warmed to 72 degrees.


The registrar is built on a processor HiSilicon HI3536 (Data Sheet: support.hkvstar.com/file/Hi3536.pdf).


This processor supports codecs H.265 Main Profile L5.1 and H.264 Baseline / Main / High profile L5.0. It can encode up to 64 channels D1 (720x576), up to 32 channels 720p to 1080p 16 and 4 channels 4K channels, so most likely 4/8/16-channel versions differ only registrar firmware.

The 8-channel model N9000-8EX supports two modes: 4 MP 8 channels or 4 channels 5 mp.


Many people write that Chinese registrars is incompatible with the Chinese chambers, leading to the impossibility of motion recording. This receptionist I checked with seven different IP-camera with Aliexpress and recording working motion. Unlike DVRs for analog cameras (DVR), in this NVR (and possibly all NVR in principle) no pre-record and recording is carried out at least 10 seconds after the cessation of motion in the frame. Sam recorder does not detect movement: it deals with camera and recording is triggered by a signal from She, therefore, in order to record the movement of work, it must be enabled and configured in each of the cameras.

Registrar interface is typical for Chinese devices.



The monitor can display any single channel, four channels, 8 channels + data bit rate, channel 1 and 7 coarsely finely.




The interface in the browser Internet Explorer.



View records.


Window settings in the browser and on the monitor connected to the DVR, are very similar.


Setting the resolution and compression.


Motion recording settings.


Setting the recording mode.


Configuring network services.


View records.


Mobile application XMEye more or less convenient. There are auto-type mode, when it is activated after an application launch screen immediately shows the device of choice. After clicking on the name of the device opens a list of its channels. After clicking on the channel number begins to show live video of the selected channel.


If your smartphone is rotated, the picture displayed on the entire screen.


Stretching the image with two fingers can be increased up to four times as much and watch any of his region.


In time mode shows the tape viewing records, which marked the moments of motion recording.


There are two display modes tape: rough (hours) and more accurate (minutes). The tape can scroll with your finger to the desired setting time. When the fragment ends playback automatically starts playing the next. The video can be viewed from the deceleration and acceleration. Exactly the same as when viewing live video, you can increase the desired track, pushing his fingers and watch videos in full screen mode, turning the smartphone horizontally.

DVR Enster N9000-8EX works fine, takes up very little space and, thanks to the support of flash drives and cards MicroSD as the main drive, it allows you to build a cheap and absolutely noiseless video surveillance system.

I do not know, to be able to live long memory card or USB flash drive in a constant cyclic overwrite mode. Time will tell.

Small minus registrar - pyativoltovoe food. This means that it does not turn the camera and DVR powered from a power supply, and when using 12-volt source uninterruptible power supply will have to do a separate power supply for the recorder (however, module Step-Down, which is perfectly suitable for this goal, It costs only $ 0.69). Another drawback - no way to save the recorded track on a USB flash drive to the recorder (only on a computer or smartphone).
