Im in the process of upgrading my old cameras to something newer. I have an LTS LTN8708K-P8 NVR and im trying to setup and configure 4 new LTS LXIP3C82NWI-28SDL turret cameras. Ive gone and ahead and plugged the camera into the network and I was able to activate it. I then plugged it ino the NVR itself however the NVR isnt detecting it at all. Ive tried to scan for it and the NVR doesn't see it. I know these cameras are onvif compatible...shouldnt the NVR detect them? The only way I can get the nvr to detect these cameras is to plug them into the network and then im a able to add them via onvif and it works. However as soon as I connect the camera to the back of the nvr it doesnt connect anymore. Am I doing something wrong? Ive verified the password and ive even tried a few different protocols (:onvif,lts,hikvision)

This one is a head scratcher perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
 
Unplug cam from the NVR, Set cam back to factory defaults.
Don't do anything else in the cam at this time, after the cam comes back online, plug the cam into the NVR port you want to use, then wait up to 5 minutes for the NVR to add it.
Your mistake was activating the cams prior to plugging into to the NVR.

Next, make any cam setting changes directly in the cameras, not in the NVR.
