1.2 MDVR Notice
To ensure your MDVR’s satisfactory performance and extend working life;please read and consider the
following factors before installation:
1. Please comply with all electronic products standards, vehicles’ and other connections’ installation policy when
installing your MDVR.
2. Power Supply and grounding
MDVR power supply direct input range is 8 ~ 36V DC; Please do NOT connect reversely and short circuit is
not permitted for output. Please note the power supply capacity of power cable. MDVR is still charged even when
it is shut down, so please be careful to avoid short circuit. Power supply must be disconnected before connecting
exterior devices. MDVR output is DC 12V, only to be used for camera. Please do NOT connect other electrical

4
equipment before consulting with a certified professional. MDVR sensor input mode is level. External voltage
below 4V is low level; above 4V but lower than 30V is high level; above 30V may damage device. Correctly
connect the device grounding cable to vehicle grounding cable to form a loop.If it is not in operation for long
periods of time, please cut off the power supply completely to extend MDVR life.
3. Humidity Requirements
Please install your MDVR within a dry environment to avoid moist, drip or water spray; do NOT install your
MDVR in sunken places where liquid may seep in or wet places where liquid may drop;
Please do NOT touch your MDVR with wet hands; do NOT touch your MDVR if you are standing in water or
getting into other liquids, it may cause electric shock.
4. Installation Position of the MDVR
To extend the life of the device, please install your MDVR in a place with weaker vibration, such as back of
driver’s seat. MDVR should be installed in a well ventilated place;it should be kept at least 6” (15cm) away from
other devices on the same level for better ventilation and heat emission. MDVR can NOT be installed in enclosed
spaces, such as vehicle trunk. Frontal mount or side mount is allowed.
External cables must have enough space and flame retardant protections to ensure it will not cause electrical fires
due to bending or shaking abrasions. Make sure MDVR is kept away from any heat sources and the area around
MDVR is cleared. Do NOT put anything on top of the MDVR.
5. Device Security
Make sure the driver and passengers can not intervene or damage any MDVR part, camera, cable or other
accessories. Do NOT install MDVR beside other restricted devices of vehicle. Please keep vehicle engine turned
off when installing to avoid any damage to the device.
Installation Notes:
1. MDVR contains electronic parts, please handle with care during transportation.
2. Installation and maintenance must be done by certified and trained professionals.
3. MDVR can NOT be installed in places where liquid or water erosion may occur.
4. Installation parts and accessories must be suitable to carry weight of MDVR.
5. Make sure MDVR is kept away from heat sources, dust and strong magnetic field.
6. Make sure there are no sundries on MDVR.
7. Please do NOT pour water directly onto the MDVR when cleaning the vehicle.
8. It is NOT recommended to connect other devices to MDVR power supply.
9. Please do NOT insert any objects into MDVR during its operation.
10. Please do NOT open or disassemble MDVR unless done by a trained and certified professional.
11. Replacing any module is not recommended when MDVR is working.

Figure 3-17 Figure 3-18
3.5-1 I/O Setup
Figure 3-19
Define alarm input here. User can assign names to each sensor to suit their specifications, such as “front door”,
“back door” or “brake” etc.
“ENABLE” is sensor ON or OFF. User can set recording mode as “ALARM”, and then determine recording and
alarm should be open or not. As users’ setting, high / low level may trigger alarm, usually, users will use high
level(>5V) to trigger alarm, see diagram as figure 2-13.
14

3.5-2 G-Sensor Setup
Figure 3-20
X / Y / Z shows three axes of vehicle – top and bottom, left and right, front and back. G-senor will detect vehicle
condition, if condition changes cross over defined parameters, MDVR will record and trigger alarm as per users’
setting. Defined parameter can be tested, please check chapter 4.3 Part 3 for more details.
“ADJUST” is to clear previous setting and return to zero. Please check and clear to back to zero before new
setting.
3.5-3 Speed Setup
Figure 3-21
SPD SOURCE: two options - GPS / VEHICLE, press “ENTER” to switch.
1. If your MDVR contains the GPS option, select “GPS”, MDVR will detect the vehicle speed automatically and
relays the information to control center via 3G network. (Basic M-DVR has no 3G/4G functions)
2. If selecting “VEHICLE”, MDVR requires an external pulse sensor to measure vehicle speed ratio
(coefficient=pulse / speed). Pulse sensor connects to SPEED-A and SPEED-B. Speed ratio will be calculated by
defined speed and captured pulse.
15
3. SPD UNIT can be switched between “KM” and “MPH”. The “LOW SPD” and “HIGH” can be enabled as user
setting, speed limitation as “THRESHOLD”. Alarm recording will be executed if it is “ON”(recording mode must
be “Alarm”).

3.6 Tools
Figure 3-22 Figure 3-23
Four sub menus: CONFIGURE, LOG,DETECTION,.
3.6-1 Configure Manual Manage and Log Search
Figure 3-24 Figure 3-25
User can utilize three functions under configure mange – export configure, load new configure and
reset setting.and format the HDD or SD card.
Export configure: MDVR will save the user’s setting as a file in HDD.
Load new configure: MDVR will load the user’s setting form a file.
Reset Setting: MDVR will go back to factory default setting.
16

Please format HDD before the first use in your MDVR.
Note: all saved information will be deleted while formatting, please make sure all useful information have been
backed up and removed before formatting.
Back to factory default setting may be helpful when some unconventional issues happen on your
MDVR.
MDVR will save all the system’s information automatically, such as system power on, user login, user setting,
network setting, video loss, video playback, motion detection etc. Input “START TIME” and “END TIME”, then
select search type (ALL / ALARM / USER) to search.
3.6-2 Motion Detection
Figure 3-26
When motion is detected in the user selected area, MDVR will trigger alarm, and then save alarm message in
system log file as “MD alarm.” If the alarm is triggered consecutively or in multiple locations in 30s, the system
will save alarm message every 30s. User can check alarm message in Log Search. MDVR will record alarm video
if user sets recording mode as ALARM.
CAUTION:
Motion Detection Recording Steps:
1.MENU – RECORD – NORMAL, select “ALARM”
2.Set “ALM PRE_REC TIME” and “ALM REC DELAY”, better to set 2mins for consecutive video.
3.MENU – TOOL – DETECTION, set motion, sensitivity and area.
MOTION AREA SETTING INSTRUCTION (Figure 3-27)
17

1. Enter motion area setting from “CONFIGURE”, move cursor and press “ENTER” to select a beginning cell
(selected cell will become yellow when cursor stays and dark green after cursor moved).
2. The user can define the area in which they may want to detect by moving the cursor from one cell to another
diagonally. The area set by the user will be indicated in dark green.
3. Press “RETURN” to return to previous menu to save setting. “SENSITIVITY” has three levels – LOW,
MIDDLE and HIGH. The “HIGH” can detect light-ray changes; the “LOW” can only detect motion.
CAUTION: Press both of “ENTER” and “CANCEL” at the same time will erase the selected area. All setting
must be saved after done.
