Please note that it is important to keep in mind common safety guidelines when installing your DVR or connecting additional devices – including turning off and unplugging your DVR before installing internal components.

2.1 DVR INSTALLATION

This DVR can be mounted on the included stand or it can be wall-mounted using a separately available mounting kit.

To attach the circular base to the DVR, use the five included screws.

2.2 CONNECTIONS

As part of its compact design, the connection ports on this DVR are concentrated on a panel on the back of the device located above the stand. These ports allow you to connect the mouse, cameras and network cable along with additional input and output components such as alarms, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, additional monitors and so on.

Power

The DVR’s power supply plugs into the socket marked DC 19V next to power switch (Item number 2 in Picture 2-2). It is absolutely essential that you only use the power supply that came with the DVR to ensure proper operation and to avoid damage.

We also recommend that you use an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) so that the system will continue to operate in the event of a power loss. In addition, you should connect the DVR into a UL-1449 rated surge protector. It should have a joule rating of at least 400, a response time of 10 nanoseconds or less and a clamping voltage of no more than 330 volts.
