A device can be added to the Night Owl X app by using the application’s Smart Auto Detection or through
a QR Code Setup. With Smart Auto Detection, your NVR will automatically be detected by the Night Owl X
software, making connecting easy! To use this preferred method, ensure your Smart Device and NVR are both
on the same network.
Connecting and Adding your Device
If your Smart Device and NVR are on the
same network, the Smart Auto Detection
