Turning on the TVR 10
Before turning the TVR 10 power on, make sure that the power supply matches that
of the TVR 10 and the AC adapter is connected correctly. Connect at least one

the user interface and operate the device.
To turn the TVR 10 power on:
1. Connect power supply correctly.
2. Switch on the manual power button on the back panel. Once the TVR 10 is
powered, the POWER LED should light up in green.
Live mode
The TVR 10 automatically enters into live mode once powered on. On the display
screen, you can see date, time, and camera name. To change the camera name, refer
to “Camera name” on page 47. To set system the date and time refer to “System date
and time” on page 60.
While in live mode, the TVR 10 also displays the status icon of each camera as shown
in Figure 10 on page 26.
