Getting Started

Basic Setup

The system is designed to mount to the back of most LCD monitors with a VESA mount. If desired, you can mount it to a wall or leave the system in a standard horizontal or vertical position.

ATTENTION: You can only mount the system to an LCD monitor that has a VESA mount and an independent stand, with clear access to the VESA mount holes.

1.Mount the System

a.Screw the provided mounting screws into the two top holes in the rear panel of your LCD monitor. Make sure the screws are only 3/4 of the way in; this will allow sufficient clearance to hang the system.

b.Carefully place the system (front panel facing up) over the screws and slide down into place.

2.Connect the Cameras

a.Connect BNC cameras to the BNC ports on the rear panel.

3.Connect the Monitor

a.Connect the VGA / DVI cable (not included) from your LCD monitor to the VGA or DVI port on the rear panel of the system.

4.Connect the Ethernet cable

a.Connect the included Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the rear panel of system; connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an empty LAN port on your router (not included).

5.Connect the Flex-IR Extender

a.Connect the Flex-IR extender to the port on the rear panel of the DVR. Position the Flex-IR extender near the front of your monitor, or where it will receive a clear signal from the remote control. Use a piece of double-sided tape (included) to help secure the Flex-IR Extender.

NOTE: The Flex-IR Extender is not required for normal operation. It may be necessary if there is not a clear line-of-sight between the DVR and the remote control.The Edge mini has an optional Flex IR extender and remote control.

6.Connect the Power

a.Connect the power cord to the DC12V port in the rear panel of the system.
