System Setup
The notices and the introduction on system installation will be described
particularly in this chapter. Please follow the description to operate the unit.
In order to prevent the unit from data loss and system damage caused by a
sudden power fluctuation, use of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is
highly recommended.
2.1
Position the Unit
Firstly, note to position/mount the NVR in a proper place and be sure to
power off the unit before making any connections. The placed location should
avoid hindering or blocking the unit from airflow. Sufficient airflow is needed
to protect the unit from overheating. The maximum allowable temperature of
operating environment is 40°C.
The unit utilizes heat-conducting techniques to transfer internal heat to the
case, especially to the bottom side of the unit.
NOTE:
Be sure the rubber feet are not removed, and always leave a
space for air ventilation on the unit’s
bottom side.
2.2
Connect Devices to the Unit
This section lists some notices that should be given before making any
connections to the NVR.
Connecting Required Devices
Before powering on the unit, a USB mouse, a USB keyboard, network
connection, and a main monitor must be connected to the unit for basic
operation.
Connecting Short-term Device
If any short-term devices shall be installed to the NVR as a part of the unit
system, such as USB ThumbDrive
®
or any USB devices, etc., make sure
those devices are connected only after the unit is powered on. The reason is
that the NVR can recognize the external devices only after the power-on
process is done completely.
