Quick Start Guide
1.
Mount and install all necessary IP cameras and external devices. Refer to their individual manuals for
additional information.
2.
Place the NVR in its final position. See installation tips below.
3.
Connect all necessary cables to the NVR.
4.
Once all additional devices have been properly connected to the NVR, connect the NVR to an
appropriate power supply. The NVR will boot up automatically.
1.
When the NVR boots up, it will be in protective mode.
This means you will not be able to access the NVR’s
setup menu until you login using the proper username
and password.
2.
To unlock the NVR, right-click anywhere on the screen.
The login screen will appear. (Default Username /
Password: admin / no password)
3.
When the NVR boots up for the first time, you will be
guided through the Startup Wizard.
1.
Make sure the cameras and the monitors are properly connected to the NVR.
2.
The NVR should be placed in a dust and moisture free environment. It must never be directly exposed
to sunlight. Server room temperature is highly recommended to reduce the chance of overheating,
which may cause the NVR to become unstable.
3.
During the boot up process, the NVR should not be interrupted by pressing any buttons on the mouse.
Do not unplug the power adapter or turn the NVR off during the boot up process.
4.
A UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) is highly recommended to prevent damage to the NVR during
a power outage.
STEP 1 – CONNECTING THE NVR
STEP 2 – POWERING UP THE NVR
SAFETY TIPS
NOTE:
1. HD Monitor output and VGA output cannot be used at the same time for dual monitoring.
2. When using the TV output, the NVR’s menu will not be accessible.
3. To connect additional IP cameras to the NVR, connect a PoE switch to the NVR’s network port.
To prevent the NVR from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds the maximum recommended
ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C). To prevent airflow restriction, allow at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance
around the ventilation openings.
