SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not install the product in a damp or dusty environment
• Install the NVR in a well ventilated environment
• Check the power supply before installing the NVR to avoid problems caused by inappropriate power supply
• Install the NVR on a flat, horizontal, vibration-free surface
• If dust gets into the mainboard, it may cause a short circuit if it gets wet. Wipe the mainboard dust, connectors, and NVR casing
• If the battery is discharged, use the same type of battery. Do not open or attempt to repair the battery.
• Use only Hard Disks recommended for surveillance systems to ensure continuous and stable recording

NVR INSTALLATION SCHEME

POSITIONING IP CAMERAS

The shape of the wireless signal coverage area is round, with the antenna positioned in the center. The signal is stronger around the antenna. Based on how to spread the wireless waves, position the IP cameras parallel or perpendicular to the NVR to provide a stable signal and quality images.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make holes in the wall at least 30 mm deep
2. Fix the camera on the wall. Use 3 PA4 screws
3. Unscrew the screws on the bracket to rotate the camera as needed
4. Remove the Hard Disk into the NVR. Be sure to disconnect the power before installation

BRIDGE FUNCTION

(REPEATER)
With this feature, the NVR offers a longer wireless signal transmission distance. Thus, IP cameras located in remote areas can connect to another IP camera and thus connect to the NVR.

1. In the main interface, right click – Menu – Channel – Bridge.
2. Click “+” to establish a link between 2 cameras.
3. There are two types of camera connection:
   • One by one: CH3 → CH2 → CH1 → NVR
   • Linked directly to the NVR: CH7 → NVR, CH8 → NVR After establishing the links, click Save.

Note: The repeater camera must be located in an area with a good signal without obstructions.

To delete a camera connected by Repeater:
Go to the Cascading interface above, left-click on the camera you want to delete from the link scheme, choose Delete, then Save.
The camera that was deleted from the scheme will connect directly to the NVR automatically after 30 seconds.

WIRED CONNECTION

In some situations, when it is difficult to make a wireless connection between NVR and the cameras due to obstructions or weak signals, you can call the cable connection.

1. Connect the camera and NVR via Ethernet cable directly or through a switch.
2. In the main interface, right-click – IP Camera – click on the “+” icon – Search. Select the desired IP, click on the “settings” icon – Modify IP. Delete the cameras you do not want to add, double-click on the IP you want to add to complete the connection.
