Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor (optional)
The connectors on the back of your system have icons indicating
which cable to plug into each connector. Be sure to tighten the
screws (if any) on the monitor's cable connector.
Connecting the power cables
Figure 3 Connecting the power cables
Connect the system's power cable to the system and, if a monitor
is used, connect the monitor's power cable to the monitor.

Securing the power cables
Figure 4 Securing the power cables
Bend the system power cables, as shown in the illustration, and
attach to the cable strap.
Plug the other end of the power cables into a grounded electrical
outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).
Turning on the system

Connect the device to the network
The Enterprise NVR- AS 4000 G3 2U variant has two 1Gbps
Ethernet ports and two 10Gbps Ethernet ports configured as two
separate redundant pairs. A choice must be made between these
two connection options when installing the NVR-AS 4000 G3.
►If you wish to configure the unit to use link aggregation, refer to
the NVR-AS 4000 User Guide.
1Gbps Ethernet
Connect the NVR- AS to the Ethernet network using standard
CAT5 Ethernet cables.
10Gbps Ethernet
Select whether a Direct Attach twinax or 10GBASE-SR fibre optic
connection is to be used to connect to the network switch.
• Direct Attach twinax cables should be connected to an
SFP+ port on the network switch and on the back of the
NVR-AS 4000.

9
• Fibre optic connection requires 10GBASE-SR SFP+ fibre
optic transceivers to be installed in the NVR-AS 4000 SFP+
port and on the network switch before attaching a short
range fibre optic patch cable.
10Gbps Ethernet connections are not supplied with the NVR-AS
4000 and must be purchased separately.
SFP+ Fibre optic transceiver modules for the Enterprise NVR-AS
4000 G3 must be purchased from IndigoVision to ensure
compatibility. The corresponding network switch SFP+ fibre optic
module purchase and compatibility is the responsibility of the user.
Complete the initial system setup
When you power up the Enterprise NVR-AS4000 G3 for the first
time, the unit goes through self test. During this stage the device
performs initial configuration. When the self test is complete, the
unit reboots.
Before you can configure the rest of the Enterprise NVR-AS 4000
settings, the Administrator password must be set. To do this,
access the web interface on the device. The first time you do so,
you will be prompted to set the Administrator password.
When first powered on, the Enterprise NVR-AS 4000 is set to use
DHCP. To get the IP address of the system, which is required to
access the web interface, you can do one of the following:
• Query your DHCP server to find which IP address has been
assigned to the system
• Configure the system to use a static IP address
►For more information on how to do this, see "Using a
monitor and keyboard" on page 11

10
Until the Administrator password is set, you will not be able to
discover the Enterprise NVR-AS 4000 in Control Center or perform
any further configuration.
When first powered on, the Enterprise NVR- AS 4000 G3 RAID
arrays commence a background initialization process. During this
operation the RAID array is fully operational but does not have full
redundancy until it completes.

Configuration
You can configure the Enterprise NVR-AS 4000 G3 using the Web
Configuration pages, or a monitor and keyboard.
DHCP
If your network supports DHCP connections, attach the device to
the network and a valid IP address is automatically assigned. The
Enterprise NVR-AS 4000 G3 can then be discovered using the
Control Center front-end application.
If your network does not support DHCP, the device will not be
assigned an IP address and you must follow the monitor and
keyboard instructions.
The Enterprise NVR-AS 4000 G3 2U/G3 2U variant only supports
either the 1Gbps ethernet pair or the 10Gbps ethernet pair to be
connected at any given time, not both.
Using a monitor and keyboard
1. Connect the keyboard and monitor to the device and press
Enter.
You should see the following prompt:
login:
2. Log in to the device using the username config and
password config.
The device prompts you to enter the new configuration
values.
3. At each prompt, press Enter to accept the current value.
•DHCP - Enter Yor Nto chose between a DHCP or static
IP configuration.
•IP Address — Enter the IP address for the unit's
network connection.

12
•Subnet Mask — Enter the IP network subnet mask for
the unit's network connection.
•Gateway — Appropriate default gateway for remote
network access: this is only required if the unit is to
communicate with devices on a different subnet.
•Preferred/Alternate Name Server Address — Enter
the IP address of the DNS server used to convert
network names into numerical IP addresses. You only
need to enter a name servers if you wish to specify NTP
or SMTP server addresses as names and not as IP
addresses.
•NVR name — Enter a name to describe the unit.
•NVR location — Enter a name to describe the location
of the unit.
•Reset network security — Enter Yto reset all
passwords used to access device, disable IP Access
Restrictions, and reset the device to HTTP use only by
deleting any HTTPS certificate or certificate request.
You are now ready to attach the device to the network.
Web Configuration pages
To access the Web Configuration pages, enter the IP address of
your device into a web browser.
If a web access password has not been previously defined for the
device you will be prompted to set a password.
The password must contain between 8 and 32 printable ASCII (7-
bit US-ASCII) characters. Enter the password again to confirm it.
The login page is then displayed. Use the web access password
to log in, and the Home page is displayed.
The web access password must be configured before the NVR is
capable of performing any authenticated network services,
including recording.
