SETTING UP AT THE HOUSE: DVR SETUP
(SMART PHONE OPTION)
The DVR or Digital Video Recorder (AKA the smart phone option) allows you record
with your CowCam, and also connects your cameras to the internet so you can view
them remotely from a cellphone or tablet.
To set up your DVR you will need your DVR, power supply, HDMI cable, Data box, cat5
network cable and mouse.
•
Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI port on the back of the DVR, then con-
nect the other end of the cable to one of your TV's HDMI inputs (make note of
what input you use).
•
Next, connect one end of the cat5 network cable to the LAN port on the back of
the DVR, connect the other end of the cable to and unused LAN port on your
internet router.
•
Connect the USB cable of the data box to the USB port on the back of the DVR
(USB cable is for power only), and connect the red and black wires to the A/B
ports on the back of the DVR red=A black=B.
•
Connect the mouse to the USB port on the front of the DVR.
•
Connect the power supply to the power input jack on the back of the DVR and
plug it into a wall connection.
Next we will get the receiver or receivers connected to the DVR. You will need your
receivers, power supplies, RCA cables, antennas, and BNC to RCA adapters.
•
Twist the antenna marked “ for receiver ” on to the gold antenna connector on
the back of the receiver unit and point it up.
•
Next, connect one end of the RCA cable to the audio and video out connectors
on the back of the receiver. Normally you can match the colors of the connect-
ors, but if your cable does not have a yellow plug, you will have to use another
one of the connectors in its place such as black.
•
Now, connect the other end of the RCA cable to the input of the DVR using the
BNC to RCA adapters. In most cases audio is unused for DVR applications so
you can leave the red and white audio cables disconnected. If you have more
than one receiver, connect them all to the DVR in order from CH 1 to CH4 only
connecting the yellow video cables.
•
Connect the power supply to the power input on the back of the receiver unit
and plug it in to a wall power connection.
•
Place the receiver on a high surface with the antenna pointing up and facing
the wall that faces the barn or camera location.
