Connecting to the RS232 Port

Figure 2-13 RS232 Connector

An RS232 port is provided to connect an external modem for remote monitoring, configuration and software upgrades, and to connect a remote control keyboard. Use a modem cable with a DB-9S (female) connector to connect to the DVR. See Chapter 3, Configuration for configuring the modem.

Note The DVR is not supplied with a modem cable, and many modems are not supplied with cables. Make certain you have the correct cable when purchasing the modem.

Connecting to the Ultra Wide SCSI Port

Figure 2-14 SCSI Connector

A SCSI port is provided to connect external storage devices for recording or archiving video. Connect the external SCSI hard disk drive (RAID) cable to the high-density 68-pin female UltraWide SCSI port. The length of SCSI cable should not exceed 5 feet (1.5 meters). You can connect up to 8 UltraWide SCSI devices with SCSI IDs set from 0 to 15 except for 7, which is assigned as the Host ID.

Note The SCSI bus must be terminated, otherwise the DVR will not operate properly.
