Figure 2.4 Paste the footpads
3) Then place the device correctly on the desktop.
2.3 Grounding
Grounding is not only important for lightning arresting and anti-interference, but for your own personal safety.
Please select the proper method to ground your device.
With grounding bar
If a grounding bar is available at the installation site, follow either of the two installations to ground the device.
A. Connect to the Grounding Bar Directly
1) Connect one end of the grounding cable to the binding post on the grounding bar.
2) Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal and fix the screw.
Figure 2.5 Connect to the grounding bar

User Manual of Network Video Recorder

B. Connect to another grounded device
1) Connect one end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal of the grounded device and fix the screw.
2) Connect to the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal of the device and fix the screw.
Figure 2.6 Connect to a grounded device
Cautions
Connect the grounding cable to the earthing system in the equipment room. Do not connect it to a fire main or
lightning.
Without grounding bar
If there is no ground bar but earth nearby and the grounding body is allowed to be buried, follow below
steps:
1) Bury an angle steel or steel pipe (≥0.5m) into the mud land.
2) Weld one end of the grounding cable to the angle steel or steel pipe and embalm the welding point.
3) Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal and fix the screw.
