SECTION 3: SYSTEM SETUP
14
When the recorder is first powered on, it is in an “Inactive” state, which means that it does not have an
admin
user password for
the recorder, and it is not configured to record video or log system status messages. The initial configuration screen enables you to
activate the recorder.
After activating the recorder and configuring its security options, a configuration Wizard will open. The Wizard helps you to easily
configure the recorder for its basic settings, including date and time, network configuration, network cameras, HDD initialization,
etc.
NOTE
After completing system setup with the Wizard, the recorder will record on Channel 1 when the AVSI switch is ON,
and record on other all other channels with cameras when motion is detected on that channel.
