Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Honeywell MAXPRO
®
NVR PE. Before installing your NVR, please read this guide carefully.
1. Unpack Everything
Check that the items received match those listed on the order form and packing slip. The packing box should include:
Note
Other peripheral hardware (owner supplied) will also be needed for your installation, such as cameras, network
equipment, a monitor, and an optional keyboard controller.
2. Installing Unit
Mounting the MAXPRO NVR Unit in a Rack and Installing Hard Drives
1.
Remove the bezel from the front of the unit. To remove the bezel, turn the two bezel key locks clockwise, and then pull
the bezel away from the unit.
2.
The MAXPRO NVR PE unit should be mounted with the supplied rail hardware kit. The kit allows the MAXPRO NVR PE
unit to slide in and out of the rack it is mounted in and provides rear support for the chassis. Refer to the installation
instructions included with the rail hardware kit.
3.
Install the supplied video storage hard drives in the hard drive slots located on the front of the unit. The drives are
numbered from 1 to 10, from the top left to the bottom right.
Note
The video storage hard drives are pre-configured for RAID 5 in the factory but can be reconfigured for RAID 6 if
required, however there will be less usable video storage space.
4.
Replace the bezel on the front of the unit. To replace the bezel, align the bezel key locks with the handles on the front
plate of the unit, and then slide the bezel into place. Turn the bezel key locks counterclockwise to secure the bezel.
3. Connecting Hardware
Rear Panel Connections
Keyboard and Mouse
Before powering up the MAXPRO NVR PE, connect the supplied PS/2 keyboard and mouse to the DIN-8 connectors at the
rear of the unit.

Dual Network Configuration
Network Connections
Connect a network PoE switch to the camera network port at the rear of the MAXPRO NVR unit. Connect your cameras to
the network PoE switch with CAT5 Ethernet cables. Optionally, connect the client workstation network port to your client
workstation network via a network switch. This allows remote access to your NVR. The default client workstation network IP
address must be changed to an available static IP address on your client workstation network.
Monitor(s)
Connect a VGA monitor. The recommended setting for your monitor is 1280 × 1024 pixels (resolution). Refer to the
MAXPRO
®
NVR 2.5 Commissioning and Installation Guide
for more information on configuring the monitor display
properties. The local VGA monitor can be used to configure the NVR, however continuous local video monitoring is not
recommended.
4. Powering Up the Unit
Note
Honeywell recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for the MAXPRO NVR PE unit, the camera
network switch, and the cameras to ensure that the MAXPRO NVR PE unit can continue to record video during a
power outage.
MAXPRO NVR PE Power On Sequence
1.
Turn on the camera(s) and other hardware connected to the MAXPRO NVR PE unit.
Note
Honeywell recommends turning on the cameras before turning on the MAXPRO NVR PE unit since IP cameras can
take up to two minutes to boot up. Online cameras can be easily discovered by the unit after startup. It is also
recommended to turn on other associated network components, such as a network switch or router, before turning
on the MAXPRO NVR PE.
2.
Press the power button on the front of the MAXPRO NVR PE unit (the power button is labeled
6
