Please refer to the system’s user manual for HDD formatting and installation.
HDD INSTALLATION:
The System comes with a pre-installed Hard Drive in the
removable hard drive bay. The system can support up to 2 hard
drives ( max 750GB each ), one in the removable bay and one
internally.
NOTE: Make sure that the System is OFF and the power cable has
been disconnected before changing the Hard Drive. For detailed
instructions, check your user’s manual included with the system.
TIP ON CAMERA MOUNTING:
Note: Test the cameras prior to selecting a permanent mounting
location by temporarily connecting the Cameras and Cables to
your System.
RECOMMENDED TIPS (CONTINUED)
NOTE: You must have an active high speed internet connection
to the System to be able to perform Remote viewing or playback.
Remote access is dependant on your connection speed, internet
traffic and other network factors - the speed is normally 1~2 FPS
(frames per second).
For faster remote viewing over the internet we recommend using
the H.264 Viewer (see page 11). H.264 compression provides
smaller file sizes resulting in a higher speed over the internet.
For faster playback, it is recommended to download previously
recorded video using the backup function and play it back using
Backup Player Software - refer to the user manual for details.
Regardless of the network playback speed, video is being
recorded on your system in real time, and can be viewed when
you are at the system or through the backup player.
