POWER INPUT CONNECTOR

The mDVR618 has a built-in Intelligent power switcher that can operate from +8V ~ +24V DC-IN. The

ON/OFF signal connects to the vehicle’s ignition signal. The mDVR618 uses this signal to trigger the power shut-off

delay and the timing circuitry. The mDVR618 will remain ON until the shut-off delay time has been reached. The

system will then go through its normal shutdown procedures before completely powering down. The GND

(Common DC ground) signal should be connected to the vehicle common ground.

CAMERA 1,2,3, AND 8 CONNECTORS

The mDVR618 supports a maximum of 8 cameras. These Micro-fit connectors are used to connect the

eight camera inputs to the mDVR618 system (video and audio). Also included in each camera connection is

DV12V Out to power the camera. You can refer to the cover of the DVR for the PIN assignments of each connector.

If any of these cameras are not connected properly (for instance loose cables, unplugged etc…) than the

mDVR618 intelligently notifies the end-users with “NO VIDEO” on the preview screen. Camera inputs are labeled

CAMERA 1, CAMERA 2, CAMERA 3, and CAMERA 4.
