The DVR has a
Factory Reset
switch to the left of the RS485 port on the rear panel. This switch will
only be used on the rare occasions that you want to return all the settings to the original factory settings.
CAUTION: When using the
Factory Reset
, you will lose any settings you have saved. If
you want to use the same DVR name registered on the DVRNS server after initializing
the system using the factory reset, you need to contact the DVRNS server manager.
Please record and save the help desk information before factory reset.
To reset the unit, you will need a straightened paperclip:
1. Turn the DVR off.
2. Turn it on again.
3. While the DVR is initializing, the front panel LEDs will blink. When any of the Camera 1 to 8
LEDs blink, poke the straightened paperclip in the unlabeled hole to the left of the RS485 port.
4. Hold the switch until all the LEDs on the front panel are lit.
NOTE: When the DVR successfully resets to factory defaults all the LEDs on the front panel flash
five times.
5. Release the reset switch. All of the DVR’s settings are now at the original settings it had when it
left the factory.
