Password Setup

Setting Up Passwords & User Permissions

When you first startup your DVR, you are automatically logged in as the ADMIN. By default, passwords are disabled

on the system. You will not need a password to log in or access menus. You will not need a password to access your system using the browser-based remote software.

Click ok to access this menu.

The system employs three levels of user authorities. The levels are as follows:

ADMIN (administrator): Has full control of the system, and can change both administrator and user passwords and enable/disable password checking and can add or delete user authorities.

DEFAULT USER (normal user): Only has access to live viewing, search, playback, and other limited authorities.

GUEST: Only has access to live viewing, search, playback, and other limited authorities.

For security reasons, it is highly recommended to enable passwords on your system. If you enable passwords, select a 6-digit USER password. The ADMIN and USER passwords must not be the same. If you forgot your password, please contact First Alert Consumer Affairs @ 1-800-323-9005
