Fig. 4 Video loop-through connectors

If you would like to connect your video source to another device, you can use the

Loop BNC connectors.

NOTE

The Loop BNC connectors are auto terminated. Do not connect a cable to the Loop BNC unless it is

connected to a terminated device because it will cause poor quality video.

7.3 Connecting the monitor

Fig. 5 Video Out connector

Connect the main monitor to the Video Out connector.

7.4 Connecting a VGA monitor

Fig. 6 VGA connector

A VGA connector is provided so that you can use a standard, multi-sync computer

monitor as your main monitor. Use the cable supplied with your monitor to connect

it to the DVR.

NOTE

It is possible that the DVR does not detect a VGA monitor automatically if the connected VGA monitor

does not support auto detect function. In this case, press and hold the Panic button on the front panel

for 5 seconds or longer to switch the video output to VGA out. Pressing and holding the Panic button

for 5 seconds or longer again returns to the previous video output mode.
