No. For maximum performance, only the services necessary to provide the functionality desired in the NVR should be configured to run.

• Monitor — Required to run, this is one of the fundamental services of the NVR, and is responsible for starting, stopping, and monitoring all services in the NVR.
• Server — Responsible for remote authentication and permissions, this service should always be running.
• Recorder — Responsible for all recording and motion detection functionality, this service should always be running if any type of recording is desired.
• FTP — Responsible for FTP communications between the NVR and Cameras, this service is only necessary if using FTP Push or FTP IP Notification features.
• Check Drive — Responsible for connection to and maintaining the archives, this service must be running when the Recorder is running.
• Check Alive — Responsible for monitoring the heath of cameras, this service is only necessary when alarming (executing Tasks) when connection to a camera is lost.
• Check Alarm — Responsible for monitoring the status of camera inputs, this service is only necessary when alarming (executing Tasks) when a status change is seen on the input of a camera.
• Tour – Responsible for driving guard tours on cameras, this service is only necessary when tours are configured and used on cameras.
• Get Shots — Responsible for taking Alarm Snapshots during the execution of Recording Tasks, this service is only necessary if the Take Alarm Shot option is checked in Recording Task configurations.
• Mapper — Responsible for IP Translation between two NIC (Network Interface Connection) cards in the computer, this service is only necessary if the NVR Server machine communicates on two networks, with cameras and/or clients existing on both networks. Port Mapping configuration is required for such an application.
• Port Listener — Responsible for alarm communication with Legacy COM-Port alarm devices such as DigiOp, this service is only necessary when communicating with such devices.
• Alarm, Remote, and Socket Servers — Responsible for low level TCP/IP and alarm and event functionality in the NVR, these services should always be running.
