TVN 21P Quick Start Guide
1. Connect all the devices required to the
back panel of the NVR. See Figure 1 on
page 1.
Basic connections:
Connect monitor A to the BNC, VGA or
HDMI output. Connect the mouse to the
USB port in the front panel.
Optional connections:
All the other connections shown are
optional and depend upon installation
requirements.
2. Connect the power cord to the unit and
turn on the power.
3. Set up the unit with the required
settings using the setup wizard.
First-time use
The NVR has an express installation wizard
that lets you easily configure basic NVR
settings when first used. It configures all
cameras simultaneously. The configuration
can then be customized as required.
By default, the setup wizard will start once
the NVR has loaded. The wizard walks you
through some of the more important
settings of your NVR. Select the preferred
language for the system and then enter the
administrator password. The default admin
password is 1234. It is strongly
recommended that this password is
changed.
The wizard will then guide you through the
menus to set the time and date, network
configuration, HDD management, and
recording configuration.
When all the required changes have been
entered, click
Finish
to exit the wizard. The
NVR is now ready to use. Recording starts
automatically.
