SAFETY INSTRUCTION
Please carefully read the following safety instruction so as to avoid personal injuries and prevent
the equipment and other connection devices from being damaged.
1. Use the power supply included or specified by the manufacturer only
Never operate the equipment using an unspecified or incompatible power supply.
2. Never push objects of any kind through openings of NVR
Never push objects of any kind through openings of NVR so as to avoid electric shock, fire or
other accidents.
3. Do not expose the equipment to dust
Clean around the device regularly to prevent overheating and damage.
4. Do not place the equipment under rain or humid environment
Do not place the equipment in humid environments like basements. If the equipment
accidentally comes in contact with water, please unplug the power cable immediately and
contact your local dealer.
5. Keep the surface of the equipment clean and dry
Use soft damp cloth to clean the outer case of NVR (do not use liquid aerosol cleaners).
6. Do not operate if any problems are found
If there are any strange smells or sounds coming from the NVR, unplug the power cable and
contact an authorized dealer or service center.
7. Do not try to remove the upper cover during operation
Warning: Do not remove the top cover of NVR so as to avoid electric shock.
8. Handle with care
Physical damage to this unit can cause it to fail to operate and you will need to contact an
authorized dealer for repair or replacement.
9. Use standard lithium battery (Note: Use the batteries specified by the manufacturer)
After disconnecting the power supply, if the system clock does not continue to work, please
replace the standard 3V lithium battery on the main board.
Warning: Turn off NVR before replacing the batteries, or you may suffer from a serious electric
shock. Please properly dispose of any used batteries.
10. Place the equipment in a place with good ventilation
An NVR system with a HDD installed, produces a large amount of heat during operation. As a
result, do not block the ventilation openings (on the top, bottom, both sides and the reverse
side). These are for cooling the system during operation. Install or place the equipment in the
place with good ventilation.
11. The attached power adapter can only be used for a single NVR unit
Do not connect additional equipment, or NVR may be restarted repeatedly because of
insufficient power
12. Keep away from water at all times
Do not place objects containing water, such as flower vase, on or near the equipment.

For PPPoe, Static and DHCP, after setting IP
address of NVR, the extranet port sh
all be
mapped on the router before visiting NVR
through public network.
Note: Save after setting to make effective. If there
are multiple NVR in a LAN, make sure their MAC
addresses are different (Refer to System).
Take DHCP as an example. In this mode, the
router automatically assigns IP address for
NVR.After restarting NVR or DHCP server, the
IP address obtained by NVR may be different.
As a result, user shall check IP address and
port number for each remote access of NVR.
The operation procedure is as follows:
1. Select DHCP, click Save and refresh NVR.
Input Client Port and HTTP Port (the two
values must not be the same).
2. Set obtained IP address of NVR and the
mapping port. Refer to section4.2.4.2.
3. Remotely visit NVR by IP address：
http://Public network IP: Web port number
（such as 00080）

Alarm Type Functions & Descriptions
Video Loss
When NVR fails to receive video signals due to some problems (camera damage, line
dropout or damage, power failure), the alarm will appear.
Motion
Detection
When IP camera detects object moving, alarm will be activated. Sensitivity is subject to
the actual application environment test. Sensitivity
is adjusted according to the
sensitivity of moving object detection and parameters are modified by combining the
area setting.
I/O Status
Communicate with alarm device through I/O port. Alarm signals sent by IR sensor or
other devices will be transformed to the system recognized signal and activate relevant
channel to record or control the device output.
HDD Status
Alarm will appear when HDD does not work due to damage, power failure, HDD auto-
overwrite off and insufficient space.
Table 2-4
It is the alarm management and setting of the machine. User
may set alarms under different status in the interface. Please
refer to Table 2-4
Alarm in: User may set four groups of alarm input.
Alarm Type: There are three kinds of status, i.e.
Always ON, Always OFF, and OFF. Always ON: When
the trigger is on, I/O alarm appears;Always OFF:When
the trigger is off, I/O alarm appears; OFF: Do not
receive I/O alarm from trigger.
Buzzer Time: You can set how long the buzzer will
sound when motion is detected (off, 10s,20s, 40s, 60s)
Alarm out: Connect the external alarm switch.
