SECTION 1: SYSTEM OVERVIEW
SECTION 1
Systems Overview
Congratulations on purchasing your H.264 Video Surveillance System! Your system includes:
• Supercircuits models DMR90U, DMR91U, and DMR92U Networkable DVR with state-of-the-art H.264 compression technology
to maximize your recording time and optimize your video quality. H.264 compression saves hard drive space and supports
faster data transfer. Data stored in the DVR can easily be o-loaded via USB or across your network.
• Up to 16 analog cameras.Types of cameras and channel number depend on the system option selected.
• Apple® iPhone®, iPad®, and iPod Touch®, Google Android™, Symbian™, Windows® Mobile, and Blackberry® smartphones apps
that let you monitor your home or business on the go from anywhere
• LCD monitor, size and type depends on the system option selected.
1.1 About this document
This document is a simplied guide for setting up a basic system with the DMR90U, DMR91U, and DMR92U DVRs (for SY703XX,
SY705XX, SY807XX systems) and analog cameras.

SECTION 2
Getting Started
2.1 Unpacking the Equipment
Your system includes:
• H.264 networkable DVR for analog cameras (DMR90U [4-channel system], DMR91U [8-channel system],
DMR92U [16-channel system])
• Cameras (number and type depends on system option)
• 100’ video/power extension cable for each camera
• Power adapter and 5-way splitter (4-camera systems), or one power adapters for the DVR and for each camera (8- and
16-camera systems)
• USB mouse
• Remote control
• LCD Monitor (type depends on system option)
• Mini-CD with smart phone applications
• This manual
Remove the equipment from its packaging and place it on a at, clean surface. Inspect each item. If any visible damage is present,
contact your supplier or Supercircuits for a replacement. Verify that your order is complete.

SECTION 2: GETTING STARTED
2.2 What you need
Although each security system installation is dierent, most require the following items not included with your system
components:
• Tools to install the cameras and route power and video cables
• Fasteners to attach the cameras to the mounting surfaces
• Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) recommended. This device is used to ensure system stability during voltage surges, sags,
and outages. If a UPS is not available, a power strip with strong surge protection is highly recommended.
• If your DVR was purchased without an HDD, you must install one. See “APPENDIX C HDD Installation” on page 85 to install an
HDD.

SECTION 3: INSTALLING YOUR SYSTEM
SECTION 3
Installing Your System
For each camera you received with your system, installation instructions are included. Follow the instructions to install all your
cameras, then route the camera video and power extension cables to the location where the DVR will be setup. Some guidelines for
camera placement, and considerations for weatherproof cameras and cable routing are provided below.
3.1 Camera installation
Plan your camera installation carefully. Identify the locations where cameras will provide the best coverage, considering:
• Field of view – Cameras must be positioned so they can eectively view the entire area that must be monitored, and in a
location that makes tampering with it dicult.
• Lighting – Direct sunlight shining on the camera lens or bright reections from shiny objects in the eld of view can diminish
video quality and camera performance. Mount the camera in shaded areas, if possible, or where these inuences can be
minimized.
• Ease of installation – The camera must be installable at the location, considering mounting hardware requirements,
temperature, dust, moisture, etc.
About weatherproof cameras
Weatherproof cameras can be mounted in any open area, such as on a telephone pole or on the side of a building. However, for best
results, we recommend you mount your cameras in a sheltered area, such as under the eave or roof of a building. Point the camera
in the direction you wish to observe. When routing cable near the camera, allow enough slack to form a U-shaped “drip loop” if it is
exposed to moisture or rain water. A drip loop helps to direct water, that accumulates on the cable, away from the camera.
Drip Loop
Drop
Cable
Cable routing
NOTE Cable connections are not weatherproof.
Video/power cables can be run almost anywhere, and are frequently routed through attics or above drop/acoustic ceilings because
of the ease of installation. For added security, we recommend you run your cables in areas with limited access to prevent tampering.

5
H.264 Video Surveillance System Setup Guide
SECTION 3: INSTALLING YOUR SYSTEM
Avoid running the cable near high voltage appliances such as uorescent lighting. Electrical noise and magnetic elds produced by
these devices may aect video signal quality.
The video and power extension cables have dierent connectors at each end - one end for the camera drop cable, and the other end
for the DVR and power source. The photo below shows the typical connectors of the camera drop cable with the mating connectors
of the extension cable.

3.2 DVR installation
3.2.1 If installing an internal HDD
If you are installing an HDD in your DVR, or upgrading an internal HDD, perform the installation before connecting your system.
Refer to “APPENDIX C HDD Installation” on page 85 for recommended HDD models and specic procedures.
3.2.2 DVR placement
Your monitoring and recording equipment is central to constant surveillance and the reliable capture of video evidence. Supercircuits
strongly suggests that it be installed in a secure location with access limited to authorized personnel.
DVRs generate heat and should be placed in a ventilated area. A high temperature environment will reduce the life span and
reliability of the equipment. Additionally, the DVR is not weatherproof, so avoid exposure to liquids and excessive dust. Do not place
objects along the sides or behind the DVR that will block airow through the unit.
Uninterruptible power supplies
It is strongly suggested that power to the system be routed through an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). These devices will keep
your security system running through most power outages, in addition to providing excellent surge and sag protection. The UPS
should support your video recorder and all cameras to ensure normal operation during abnormal power conditions.

4. If you are installing a 4-channel system:
a. Connect the 5-way power splitter to the power adapter, then:
b. Connect the lead marked DVR POWER to the DC 12V connector on the DVR backpanel. Ensure that the POWER switch
on the DVR is o.
c. Connect the other leads of the splitter to the mating connectors on the video/power extension cables routed to the
cameras.
5. If you are installing an 8- or 16 channel system:
a. Connect a camera power adapter to the DVR end of each video/power extension cable, then plug the power adapter into
a standard 120 Vac power source through a UPS or surge protector.
b. Connect the DVR power adapter to the DC 12V connector on the back of the DVR, then connect the power cord to the
power adapter and plug it into a standard grounded 120 Vac power source through a UPS or surge protector.
6. Power on your system monitor.
7. Power on the DVR using the POWER switch on the backpanel. A startup “Loading” screen will appear on the display. After a
few seconds, the screen will change to the camera view screen.
