Basic Operation (continued)

Step 1 - Installing the Hard Disk Drive (Skip this step if your DVR comes with a

hard disk drive already installed)

1.Remove the screws on the bottom of the DVR.

2.Slide the cover off carefully.

3.Connect the power cord and data cable to the hard disk carefully. Ensure the jumper/s on the hard disk is set to MASTER.

4.Use screws to fix the hard disk onto the rack.

5.Then replace the cover on the case and fix it to the case.

CAUTION:

Do not open the cover when DVR is running!

Make sure the HDD is set to MASTER.

Step 2 - Connecting your cameras

Connect your cameras (1) to the Video Extension Cable (2), connect the DC 5Way Splitter (3) to the other end of Video Extension Cable (2) using its DC plug, and connect BNC plug on the Video Extension Cable (2) to the Video Input

(4) sockets (CH1 - CH4) on the rear panel of the DVR unit.

Step 3 - Connecting your DVR to your monitor

Connect Video-Out Signal Cable (5) to the Video Output connector (6) on the back of the DVR, then connect the other end of the Video-Out signal cable (5) to your TV or Security Monitor’s Video Input socket (7).

Make sure your monitor is on the appropriate AV input channel. If you have an AV TV with RCA sockets, you will need to switch the TV to the AV channel on the TV to view the DVR.

This channel may be activated by a button on your remote control which is marked

with this symbol , or L1, L2 or possibly AV, AV1 or AV2.

*To extend the operating distance from your TV or VCR you will need to purchase an A/V extension cable (sold separately) which are available at most electronics stores.

Note: We do not recommend extending the camera cable length past 330 Feet/100 metres with a single cable run to avoid loss of signal.

Multiple cable sections connected to make up one cable length can drastically reduce the video signal run distance.

Plug the DVR Power Adaptor (9) into the mains power point in your wall. Connect the DC plug at the end of the Camera Power Adaptor (11) in to DC 5
