Starting the DVR

Once the DVR has been connected to power it will switch itself on automatically. The DVR takes approximately 45 seconds to boot up, during which time the image to the right will be displayed.

When you first press a button on the remote control or click a button on the mouse, the DVR may ask you to LOGIN.

To get full functionality of the DVR, enter the username admin and leave the password field blank. To change the admin password, alter user priviledges or change whether the DVR requires a secure login or not, see “User Setup Menu” on page 54.

The default mode of the DVR is live-viewing mode. This is the mode which monitors the images coming from your cameras in real-time, and allows you to configure your recording and channel options. The DVR automatically starts in live-viewing mode, with multi-view enabled.

The first thing you’ll probably open is the pop-up menu. To access the pop-up context menu, right-click anywhere on the live-viewing screen, or press the MENU

/ESC button on the remote control. The pop-up menu lets you quickly access the following functions, which can be selected by left-clicking the option you want. The options are described in detail on the following page.
