NVR Connection
HDD Installation
Your NVR comes with a pre-installed hard drive. To replace, upgrade, or add a hard drive to your unit, please
disconnect the power cable to the NVR. The SATA data cables and power wires to the hard drive can be pulled
directly out of the drive. Please note the key / orientation of the plug being removed from the drive, and re-install
in the same manner to the new drive. The hard drive is typically held in place with four screws. After
installation, place the cover back on the NVR, secure with the cover’s screws, and attach the power cable. Go to the
Main Menu, select the <DEVICE> sub menu, and click on <FORMAT HDD>. Please use only a SATA drive
recommended for surveillance applications. Contact technical service for the latest factory recommendations.
Camera, Router and Monitor Connection
Connect the included LAN patch cable from the WAN port on the NVR to the router or switch on your
local network. A local monitor should be connected to the VGA or HDMI outputs to help you see the
menus and setup your new NVR. Cameras can be connected directly to the RJ45 (POE) ports on the
back of the NVR.
Power Supply Connection
Please connect the included 48 VDC power adapter (4 & 8 Channel), or AC cord (16 channel) to the
back of the unit.
NVR Boot up
System Initialization
Upon pressing the power button, you will see the Security Labs logo and Customer Support contact
information. This same screen will be displayed every time your NVR is powered on.
Startup Wizard
After the NVR initialization is completed, the startup wizard will be displayed. If you do not wish to be
reminded of any future setup items the next time you power on the NVR, you may click “Don't show this
window next time” to cancel. You can still access all settings via the menu system at any time. You can
also reactivate the Wizard under: Main Menu / System / General / Show Wizard
TIP: Let the Startup Wizard do its job. If all components are connected correctly, you will see
video from all cameras with no further camera to NVR setup required!
The Wizard setting menu includes：The Homepage, Network setup, IPC (IP Camera) setup, Record
Schedule and Hard Disk Maintenance..
1．The network setup page default mode is DHCP. This automatically assigns an IP address to the NVR

that is made available by your router. If you intend to use a static IP address (an address that is provided
by your internet service provider and never changes), click on <Static> and enter the address using the
mouse supplied with the NVR. <Save> when finished.
2、IPC Setup allows you to review the cameras that were discovered by the Wizard. This list will contain
the POE cameras that were connected to the back of the NVR, along with any other compatible cameras
that were discovered on your local network via the LAN patch cable connected to your router. You can
edit the address, add, or delete a camera on this list
TIP: Use the <Auto Assign IP to camera(s)> button to refresh any previously deleted cameras, or
to add newly installed cameras to the list.
IPC Setup
Record Schedule gives you a quick way to set up the days, times, and type of recording that you would
like to use. Select Normal (constant recording), Motion (video motion detection), or Alarm (devices
connected to the alarm input terminals) with the mouse control, left-click and drag that selection through
the schedule table.

TIP: Be sure to further define each type of trigger in the Alarm and Motion menus.
Record Schedule
Hard Disk Maintenance shows the available recording space on the drive. You can also select <Auto>
overwrite for the drive to overwrite the oldest file when full, select the number of days you wish to store at
any time, or stop recording when full. Auto is the default selection and most popular choice. When
installing a new hard drive, click the <Format HDD> button.
TIP: The hard drive included with this NVR has been formatted and is ready to record!
