2.1 How to install the VP-101
The following sections will help users to install VP-101 at first time. Users just follow step-by-step procedures to install your
VP-101 Network DVR on Chip.
A. Install a DVR on Chip Flash Rom and VP-41 capture card(s) onto the motherboard
B. Motherboard BIOS Setting , Basic Operation via local keyboard
Step 1 : Installing Motherboard
We recommend motherboards that support Linux device drivers. If you purchased a non-recommended motherboard yourself
make sure it works. We are not responsible for non-approved motherboards. We carry recommended motherboards for system
integrators to use. Put the motherboard together just like a regular PC.
Step 2: Installing CPU
We recommend any Pentium 4 Class CPU. Install as usual and attach the heat sink and fan.
Step 3: Installing Memory
We recommend installing a good brand name 256MB DDR memory. If you have up to 2 VP-41 (video capture cards), we
strong recommend you using 512MB DDR memory for getting better system performance.
Step 4 : Installing Video Card
We recommend video cards as in supporting list (Please check appendix) .We carry video cards for system integrators. Insert
the video card into the AGP slot. Not all video cards will work due to unsupported Linux device drivers.
Step 5: Installing the VP-101 DVR module
The VP-101 DVR module sits on the primary IDE slot on the motherboard. If attaching a CD-RW to your unit then put the
VP-101 DVR module in the middle of the yellow IDE cable included. And then put the end of the yellow IDE cable to the
CD-RW and the other end to the primary IDE channel. The yellow IDE cable must be used with the VP-101 DVR module and
not any generic IDE cable. Then attach the power connector from the VP-101 DVR module to a free lead from the power
supply.
Note: Users must plug “Master” connector of the VP-101 power cable to the 4-pin plug of the power supply. Otherwise,
VP-101 may not work!
Step 6: Installing the hard drives
For a single drive make sure the jumper settings is set on primary. Attach that with any ordinary IDE cable onto the secondary
IDE channel.
For dual drives make sure one hard drive is set on primary and the secondary on slave. Attach those to the IDE cable and plug
into the secondary IDE channel.
The max hard drive size supported is 250GB each. For a total of 500GB.
Note: When VP-101 is working at the first time, VP-101 will erase the data in the hard disk. If there is important
information in the hard disk, please remember to backup the data in another storage.
Step 7: Installing VP-41 Capture Card
Our capture card is proprietary and will only work with our DVR chip. Install the capture card into an available PCI slot. Once
the system boots the DVR firmware will automatically detect how many capture cards are in the PCI slots.

4
Power Supply
We recommend a 300W ATX power supply for the DVR unit.
Change from IR mode to GUI mode
Default mode is the wireless IR remote control mode. DVR provides a GUI mode with mouse support. Go to system settings
then running mode. Change from IR mode to mouse mode. The unit will reboot. Be sure to plug in a PS2 mouse in the back of
the unit before or when it is beginning to reboot. Mouse mode is the only mode where a log can be displayed.
2.2 Power On
After complete the installation, you can power on the PC as usual. Live videos should be displayed on VGA screen if
everything is OK.
2.3 Configuration
When you get videos displayed on VGA screen, you can configure the VP-101 PC DVR unit using the IrDA controller comes
with the VP-101 package. Please refer to Chapter 3, Operating DVR by IrDA controller.
2.3.1 IR Remote Control
Users can operate DVR via IR remote control or local keyboard. There will be a OSD screen on the VGA monitor. Before
operating DVR via IR remote control, please make sure that DVR has connected to the VGA monitor via VGA Out connector.

Firewall
The function of Firewall is to protect your DVR system from Internet attacks so that you can hook up your DVR to Internet
safely
DROP / ACCEPT
Default to selecte as DROP or ACCEPT. If default is DROP, that means rules in the Accept List are accepted and all others are
rejected. On the contrary, If default is ACCEPT, that means rules in the Drop List are rejected and all others are accepted
Add / Edit
Adding or edit an IP address. “mask” means domain address. For example, when key in IP:10.11.100.151，
Mask:255.255.255.0，this means IP address from 10.11.100.1 to 10.11.100.255 will be blocked，totally 255 IP addresses。
HTTP: When default is DROP and HTTP is NO (not Apply), this means the HTTP port of this IP is rejected. On the
contrary，if default is ACCEPT and HTTP is NO (not Apply)，that means the HTTP port of this IP address is opened。
FTP: same as HTTP。

15
DROP / ACCEPT LIST
Rules in the list are checked by top down sequence. When any one of the rule is satisfied, checking will NOT go down.
For Example:
Default Rule ACCEPT
1. 10.11.100.151/24 HF (means IP coming from 10.11.100.* are all rejected.)
2.10.11.100.154/32 (means ports from 10.11.100.154 are all rejected EXCEPT HTTP and FTP )
If you use 10.11.100.154 to access DVR web page, it will fail.
When the sequence of Rule1, Rule2 are exchanged and Default Rule is ACCEPT
1.10.11.100.154/32
2. 10.11.100.151/24 HF
Then, if you use 10.11.100.154 to access DVR web page，it will work OK.
Move Up- Move a specific Rule one row up
Move Down- Move a specific rule one row down.
Delete - Delete a specific rule in Rule table.
Delete All- Delete all rules in Rule table.
