Installation
No special tools are required to install the DVR. Refer to the installation manuals for the other items that make
up part of your system.
Your DVR can be used with either NTSC or PAL equipment.
NOTE: You cannot mix NTSC and PAL equipment. For example you cannot use a PAL camera and an
NTSC monitor.
< DVR rear panel >
Video Input Audio In/Out Alarm Input/Output
Factory Reset Switch Video Out Network Port
RS232 Port RS485 Port Power Cord Connector
Video Input
Connect the coaxial cables from the video sources to the BNC Video In connectors.
Audio In/Out
NOTE: It is the user’s responsibility to determine if local laws and regulations permit recording audio.
The DVR does not have amplified audio output, so you will need a speaker with an amplifier. The
DVR does not have a pre-amplifier for audio input, so the audio input should be from an amplified
source, not directly from a microphone.
Alarm Input/Output
Your DVR can record audio from up to four sources. Connect the audio sources
to Audio In 1, Audio In 2, Audio In 3 and Audio In 4 as needed using RCA
jacks. Connect Audio Out to your amplifier.
NOTE: To make connections on the Alarm Connector Strip, press
and hold the button and insert the wire in the hole below the button.
After releasing the button, tug gently on the wire to make certain it
is connected. To disconnect a wire, press and hold the button above
the wire and pull out the wire.

AI 1 to 16 (Alarm-In): You can use external devices to signal the DVR to react to events. Mechanical or electrical
switches can be wired to the AI (Alarm-In) and GND (Ground) connectors. The threshold voltage of electrical
switches for NC (Normally Closed) is above 2.4V and for NO (Normally Open) is below 0.3V, and should be
stable at least 0.5 seconds to be detected. The voltage range of alarm input is from 0V to 5V.
GND (Ground): Connect the ground side of the Alarm input and/or alarm output to the GND connector.
NOTE: All the connectors marked GND are common.
NO (Normally Open): Connect the device to the COM and NO (Normally Open) connector. NO is a relay
output which sinks 1A@30VDC.
Factory Reset Switch
CAUTION: When using the Factory Reset, you will lose any settings you have saved.
To reset the unit, you will need a straightened paperclip:
1. Turn the DVR off.
2. Turn it on again.
3. While the DVR is initializing, the front panel LEDs will blink. When the front panel LEDs blink, poke
the straightened paperclip into the unlabeled hole to the left of the HDMI connector.
4. Hold the switch until the DVR’s internal buzzer sounds twice.
5. Release the reset switch. All of the DVR’s settings are now at the original settings it had when it left the factory.
Video Out
An HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connector is provided so that you can use an HDMI monitor
as your main monitor.
A VGA connector is provided so that you can use a standard, multi-sync computer monitor as your main monitor.
Use the cable supplied with your monitor to connect it to the DVR.
Network Port
CAUTION: The network connector is not designed to be connected directly with cable or
wire intended for outdoor use.
RS232 Port
The DVR has a Factory Reset switch to the left of the HDMI connector on the rear panel.
This switch will only be used on the rare occasions that you want to return all the settings to
the original factory settings.
NOTE: Connect the monitor before the DVR boots so that video can be displayed
on the monitor with the resolution you have set during system setup. If you want
to use both the HDMI and VGA Monitor connectors, one of the monitors should
be connected before the DVR boots, and the other monitor should be connected
after the DVR boots.
The DVR can be networked using the 10Mb/100Mb/1Gb Ethernet connector. Connect a Cat5
cable with an RJ-45 jack to the DVR connector. The DVR can be networked with a computer for
remote monitoring, searching, configuration and software upgrades.
An RS232 port is provided to connect remote control devices such as a control keyboard. PTZ
cameras or text-in devices can also be connected to the RS232 port.

RS485 Port
Power Cord Connector
WARNING: ROUTE POWER CORDS SO THAT THEY ARE NOT A TRIPPING HAZARD.
MAKE CERTAIN THE POWER CORD WILL NOT BE PINCHED OR ABRADED BY
FURNITURE. DO NOT INSTALL POWER CORDS UNDER RUGS OR CARPET.
THE POWER CORD HAS A GROUNDING PIN. IF YOUR POWER OUTLET DOES
NOT HAVE A GROUNDING PIN RECEPTACLE, DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG.
DO NOT OVERLOAD THE CIRCUIT BY PLUGGING TOO MANY DEVICES IN TO
ONE CIRCUIT.
