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.

Suggest using the UPS to protect the power supply under allowable conditions.

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.

【IR_CUT】can be set as automatically switch or IR synchronous switch

automatically switch：swap ICUT according to the actual environment ;

IR synchronous switch：swap ICUT according to the IR lamp status ;

【DayNTLevel】When the light is sufficient, the level to eliminate the noise in the preview screen, the higher the level the better the noise reduction effect.

【NightNTLevel】When the light is insufficient, the level to eliminate the noise in the preview screen, the higher the level the better the noise reduction effect.

【Mirror】：Enable it ,the preview screen flip 90°left and right

【Flip】： Enable it ,the preview screen flip 90°up and down
