2.
Power on the NVR using the power on / off (I / O) switch on the back panel or the front panel ON/OFF switch.
3.
Power on the monitor.
NOTE
Some monitors have multiple inputs such including VGA ,HDMI, BNC, etc. If you are using this kind of monitor, configure your monitor to
display the input connected to your NVR (HDMI or VGA).
Step 3. Using the Wizard for basic configuration setup
1.
Power on the NVR. Normally, an Alibi logo splash screen appears within 2 minutes.
After the Alibi splash screen appears (see above), the NVR will check the status of HDDs installed within the chassis, and show the
show icons on the screen indicating their status. A green mark on the icon indicates that the associated HDD is operating normally.
If you installed new (or uninitialized) HDDs in the chassis before running the Wizard, those HDDs must be initialized before use. HDD
initialization can be performed within the wizard and within the NVR menu system.
Following the splash screen, a monitor resolution screen may appear. Open the drop down list and select the monitor resolution you
prefer, then click
OK
.

The Setup Wizard can assist you in making important configuration settings in NVR. Click
