Introduction 1 Introduction 1.1 Features Your color digital video recorder (DVR) provides recording capabilities for 9 or 16 camera inputs.
Introduction 1.2 Technical Overview Your DVR can replace both a time-lapse VCR and a multiplexer in a security installation. However, it has many features that make it much more powerful and easier to use than even the most advanced VCR. The DVR converts analog PAL or NTSC video to digital images and records them on a hard disk drive. Using a hard disk drive allows you to access recorded video almost instantaneously; there is no need to rewind tape.
Installation 2 Installation 2.1 Package Contents The package contains the following: z Digital video recorder z Adaptor (including power cord) z Alarm I/O board z Multilingual user’s manual, multilingual RAS software and user’s manual on CDROM z CD-ROM z Multilingual quick reference guide z 19 inch bracket 2.2 Required Installation Tools No special tools are required to install the DVR. Refer to the installation manuals for the other items that make up part of your system. Fig. 2 2.

Connect the coaxial cables from the video sources to the BNC Video In connectors. 2.5 Connecting the Loop Through Video Fig. 5 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.
Installation 2.7 Connecting Audio NOTE: It is the user’s responsibility to determine if local laws and regulations permit recording audio. Fig. 7 Audio In and Out connectors. Your DVR can record audio. Connect the audio source to Audio In. Connect Audio Out to your amplifier. NOTE: The DVR does not have amplified audio output, so you will need a speaker with an amplifier. The audio input can be from an amplified source or directly from a microphone. 2.8 Connecting Alarms Fig.
Installation 2.8.1 AI 1 to 16 (Alarm In) You can use external devices to signal the DVR to react to events. Mechanical or electrical switches can be wired to the AI (Alarm In) and GND (Ground) connectors. The threshold voltage is 4.3V and should be stable at least 0.5 seconds to be detected. See Chapter 3 — Configuration for configuring alarm input. 2.8.2 GND (Ground) NOTE: All the connectors marked GND are common. Connect the ground side of the Alarm input and/or alarm output to the GND connector. 2.
Installation 2.9 Connecting to the RS485 Fig. 10 RS485 connector The DVR can be controlled remotely by an external device or control system, such as a control keyboard, using RS485 half-duplex serial communications signals. The RS485 connector can also be used to control PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) cameras. Connect RX+ and TX+ of the control system to the RX+/TX+ of the DVR, and RXand TX- to the RX-/TX-.
Installation 2.11 Connecting to the UltraWide SCSI Port Fig. 12 SCSI connector A SCSI port is provided to connect external storage devices for expanded storage. Connect the external SCSI hard disk drive (RAID) cable to the high-density 68-pin female UltraWide SCSI port. The length of SCSI cable should not exceed 1.5 meters. You can connect up to 15 UltraWide SCSI devices with SCSI IDs set to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 respectively.
Installation 2.13 Connecting to the USB Port Fig. 14 USB connector. Two USB ports are provided to connect external hard disk drives, CD-RW or flash drive for clip copy or system upgrade. Position the external drive close enough to the DVR so that you can make the cable connections, usually less than 6 feet. Use the USB cable provided with the drive to connect it to the DVR. 2.14 Factory Reset Fig. 15 Factory reset switch. The DVR has a Factory Reset switch to the right of the USB port.
Installation 2.15 Connecting the Power Cord Fig. 16 Power cord connector. Connect the DC power cord of the adaptor to the DVR, and connect the AC power cord to the adaptor and then to the wall outlet. NOTE: The power cord connector locks into position to prevent accidental power loss. Be sure to slide the release away from the socket before removing the plug.
