NOTE: The System ID number is used to identify the unit when it is connected with other DVRs
through the RS485 port. You cannot use the same ID number for two or more DVRs that are in the
same RS485 network. It is possible to have multiple DVRs with System ID 0 that are in the same
area as long as they are not part of an RS485 network. If this is the case, all will be controlled at
the same time when using the infrared remote control.
