CONNECTION AND SETUP 

5

 

2-2 To install on the second bracket 
Connect the power connector and 
data bus connector to the HDD.   

When connecting the power cable, 
make sure the cable is passed 
through the power cable of DVD 
writer if your DVR is equipped with 
a DVD writer. This is to prevent the 
HDD power cable from interfering 
with the fan spinning. 

Align the screw holes of the bracket 
with the HDD’s screw holes. Make 
sure the PCB side of the HDD is 
facing up. Then, fasten the HDD to 
the bracket. 

Step3: Close the upper cover of the DVR, and fasten all the screws you loosened in 

Step1. 

 

For 4CH Model 

Step1: Loose the screws on the upper cover and remove it from the DVR. Find the hard 

disk bracket located on the DVR base. 

Step2: Get a compatible hard disk, and connect it to the power connector and data bus 

connector. 

 

Step3: Make sure the PCB side is facing up, and place the hard 

disk between the hard disk bracket on the DVR base as 
shown below.   

Make sure the other side of the hard disk is 
contacted with the DVR base for heat conduction.
