3Installation and Connections
Note: All the installation and operations here should conform to your local
electric safety rules.
3.1 Check Unpacked SDR 8016
When you receive the SDR 8016 from the shipping agency, please check whether
there is any visible damage to the SDR 8016 appearance. The protective materials
used for the package of the SDR 8016 can protect most accidental clashes during
transportation. Then you can open the box to check the accessories.
Please check the items in accordance with the list on the warranty card. Finally you
can remove the protective film of the SDR 8016.
3.2 HDD Installation
3.2.1 Choose HDDs
We recommend Seagate HDD of 7200rpm or higher.
3.2.2 Calculate HDD Size
This series SDR 8016 have no limit to HDD capacity. You can use 120G-700G HDD
to guarantee higher stability.
The formula of total HDD size is:
Total Capacity (MB) = Camera Amount * Recording Hours * HDD Usage Per Hour
(M/h)
H.264 compression is ideal for standalone SDR 8016. When you calculate the total
HD capacity, you should estimate the average HDD capacity per hour for each
channel.
For example, for a 4-ch SDR 8016, the average capacity of HDD usage per hour per
channel is 200M/h. Now if you hope the SDR 8016 can record the video 12 hours
each day for 30 days, the total capacity of HDDs needed is: 4 channels * 30 days *
12 hours * 200 M/h = 288G. So you need to install one 300G HDD or 2 160G HDDs.
3.2.3 HDD Installation
Data ribbons, fastening screws and smart HDD shelf design are already provided in
the accessories.
Notes: please pay attention to HDD jumper:
If you just need to install one HDD, you can set the HDD to MASTER.
If you install two HDDs to one IDE port, you need to set the farther one as
MASTER and the other as SLAVE. Please don’t set HDD as CS Enable or Cap
Limit.
