DVR User Manual

The DX3000 Series DVR has an unmarked lock
button to restrict unauthorized use of the re-
corder. The lock button will work only as long as
no one discovers its function. Since you may
need to make the manual accessible to others,
the lock button’s location and operation are NOT
documented in the manual – this is the only place
it is shown.
If you want to keep this page in the manual, just
staple it inside the cover.
The lock button is located on the front panel
below the PRE ALARM REC light.
SIMPLE LOCK
When the LOCK button is pressed (with a ball-
point pen, for example), the front panel controls
are disabled except for the CAMERA, SPLIT/
SEQUENCE, and ZOOM buttons. The LOCK
indicator light illuminates when the unit is in the
Lock mode. Press the LOCK button again to exit
the Lock mode.
The simple lock function does not work if a pass-
word has been entered into the recorder (refer
to Password Lock).
PASSWORD LOCK
Pressing the LOCK button on the front of the
unit lets you record a password. Once the pass-
word has been entered and the unit has been
locked, the front panel controls are disabled
except for the CAMERA, SPLIT/SEQUENCE,
and ZOOM buttons.
Entering Initial Password
1. Press the LOCK button for five seconds.
The Password Setting menu appears.
2. Enter a four-digit password. The password
may consist of the numbers 0-9. 1-9 are as-
signed to the camera buttons on the front of
the unit. 0 is assigned to the ZOOM key.
3. Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right to enter
the password.
4. Re-enter the password, and then turn the
SHUTTLE ring to the right. The password is
now set, and the normal operating screen
appears.
If the wrong password is entered, “PASS-
WORD ERROR” appears on the screen, and
the password is cleared. Turn the SHUTTLE
ring to the left to exit the menu. Press the
LOCK button to turn off the indicator light.
Return to step 1.
