APPENDIX A: GLOSSARY APPENDIX A Glossary Dual Stream: Dual stream is a technology used to record high resolution video locally while transmitting a lower resolution stream over the network. The two streams are generated by the NVR, with the main stream having a maximum resolution of 4CIF and the sub-stream having a maximum resolution of CIF. HDD: Acronym for Hard Disk Drive. A storage medium which stores digitally encoded data on platters with magnetic surfaces.
APPENDIX B: FAQ APPENDIX B FAQ QQ Why does my NVR make a beeping sound after booting? AA The possible reasons for the warning beep are: a. There is no HDD installed in the NVR. b. The HDD is not initialized. c. HDD error To cancel the beeping sound and use the NVR without HDD, open the Configuration | Exception menu and de-select the Audible Warning.
APPENDIX C: HDD INSTALLATION APPENDIX C HDD Installation The following procedures illustrate hard disk drive (HDD) installation in NVR without an HDD, and installation of a second HDD. If you purchased your NVR without a HDD, or you want to replace the HDD installed in your NVR, use this procedure as a guideline. C.1 NVR compatible HDDs For the best performance of your system, install only a high-reliability security grade HDD. Security grade HDDs are designed to stream video efficiently.
