SECTION 2
Installing the System
2.1 Getting Started: Unpacking the Equipment
What’s in the box
Your system includes:
• ALI-NVR5000P series NVR
• Remote Control
• USB mouse
• 6 foot Ethernet cable
• 6 foot HDMI cable
• Power cable for NVR
• Interface cables for a 2nd internal hard disk drive
Remove the equipment from its packaging and place it on a at, clean surface. Inspect each item. If any visible damage is present,
contact your supplier for a replacement. Verify that your order is complete.
What you need
Although each security system installation is dierent, most require the following items not included with your system
components:
• VGA or HDMI compatible computer monitor
• IP cameras and cables compatible with the NVR
• Tools to install the cameras and route power and video cables
• Fasteners to attach the cameras to the mounting surfaces
• A display device to connect to the NVR. The NVR will connect directly to a VGA video monitor or an HDMI monitor (HDMI cable
is provided). The display device is usually needed only for system setup. It can be disconnected when the NVR is networked for
access across a LAN or Internet.
• Uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device is used to ensure system stability during voltage surges, sags, and outages. If a
UPS is not available, a power strip with strong surge protection is highly recommended.
