DVRS Programming Guidelines
Programming Steps Overview
The DVRS operation depends on the following:
•
DVR firmware and programming settings
•
MSU firmware and programmed personality
•
PSU type, firmware and programmed personality
•
System infrastructure
To enable a given DVR feature, all of the above components must be adequately setup
and matched to support it.
IMPORTANT!
Changes to any of the personality templates may require corresponding
adjustments to the personality templates of the rest of the system components.
To ensure consistent programming of all components, the following programming
sequence is recommended:
