NOTE: The Flex IR Extender is not required to use the DVR. Use the Flex IR Extender to install the DVR where it will not have line of sight to the remote control, such as in a cabinet or behind the monitor.
Step 6: Connect the Power Adapter
•Before powering up the DVR, ensure the monitor is connected and powered on. This allows the DVR to detect the best resolution for your monitor.
•Connect the power adapter to the DC 12V port on the rear panel of the system. Connect the other end of the power adapter to a power outlet or surge protector.
