Rack Mount Instructions
The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should
be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply
wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g.
use of power strips).

3. Setting Up the DVR
The following sections detail the initial setup of the DVR
3-1. Setup – Main Screen
When you press the SETUP button, the DVR will ask for a password. The default password is
1111, which can be entered by pressing the up button 4 times and then pressing the SEL button.
We recommend you protect the system by assigning a new password immediately. The
procedure for assigning a password is found in section 3.6. After a password has been assigned,
enter the password by using the direction keys (representing 1, 2, 3, & 4), and then
press the SEL button for the password validation. Once the password is entered, you will see
the screen as shown in Figure 3.1.1. Navigate through the menu items and press the SEL
button to enter the sub-category menu.
