3.1 Turn on
Plug the power supply and turn on the power supply switch. Power supply indicator light shining indicates turning on the video
recorder. After the startup you will hear a beep. The default setting of video output is multiple-window output mode. If the startup
time is within the video setting time, the timing video recording function will start up automatically. Then the video indicator light of
corresponding channel is shining and the DVR is working normally.
Note:1. Make sure that the input voltage corresponds with the switch of the DVR power supply.
2. Power supply demands: 220V±10% /50Hz.
Suggest using the UPS to protect the power supply under allowable conditions.
3.2 Turn off
There are two methods to turn off the DVR. Entering [main menu] and choosing [turn off] in the [turn off the system] option is called
soft switch. Pressing the power supply switch is called hard switch.
Illumination:
1、Auto resume after power failure
If the DVR is shut down abnormally, it can automatically backup video and resume previous working status after power failure.
2、Replace the hard disk
Before replacing the hard disk, the power supply switch in the real panel must be turned off.
3、Replace the battery
Before replacing the battery, the setting information must be saved and the power supply switch in the real panel must be turned
Off. The DVR uses button battery. The system time must be checked regularly. If the time is not correct you must replace the battery,
we recommend replacing the battery every year and using the same battery type.
Note: The setting information must be saved before replacing the battery otherwise information will lose.
3.3 Login
When the DVR boots up, the user must login and the system provides the corresponding functions with the user purview. There are
three user settings. The names are admin, guest and default and these names have no password. Admin is the super user purview; guest and
default's permissions are preview and video playback. User admin and guest's password can be revised, while their permissions can't be
revised; user default is the default login user whose permission can be revised but not its password.
Password protection: If the password is continuous wrong three times, the alarm will start. If the password is continuous wrong five
times, the account will be locked. (Through reboot or after half an hour, the account will be unlocked automatically).
For your system security, please modify your password after first login.
