Connecting Your System

STOP Connect all cameras locally before final placement to ensure that all components function properly.

1. 1Connect the NVR to a PC monitor or TV with included HDMI cable.
   NOTE: Monitor is required for initial setup. After completing the initial setup, your NVR does not need to be connected to a TV or monitor to view or capture recordings.

2. Connect the NVR LAN port to your router with included Ether-net cable. (Skip this step if you plan to connect the NVR to Internet via Wi-Fi)
   

3. Plug the USB mouse into the USB port on the NVR.

4. Connect the NVR to power with included bigger power
   NOTE: Use the bigger 12V 2A power adapter with NVR so it has enough power.

5. To verify whether cameras are working, please ensure they appear on your TV/ monitor before mounting them.
   NOTE: Make sure NVR is in intended location before testing cameras.

6. Plug the cameras into wall outlets with included smaller power adapters.
   NOTE: you should see each camera appear on your TV/ monitor. You may now proceed to install cameras in the desired locations.

7. Bring cameras to desired mounting locations, power on them and go back to NVR screen, wait for 5 minutes to see if they can stream fluently. If a camera does not stream well, adjust it to a location with less obstacles in-line-of-sight from the NVR. If they stream fluently, go ahead to mount the camer-as.
   NOTE: select a least interfered Wi-Fi channel so your NVR performs its best Wi-Fi capability. In NVR’s menu – System setting – Network – NVR Wi-Fi hotspot, click “Adaptive Channel”

Positioning Your NVR and Cameras

• Camera distance from NVR can reach up to 300 ft. wire-lessly. Therefore, proper placement of the wireless NVR in your home will help ensure you achieve maximum coverage.
• Do NOT place near high voltage wires or other sources of electrical interference. Electrical interference will degrade the quality of the signal.

• Install the camera 2-3 meters (7-10 ft) above the ground. This height maximizes the detection range of the motion sensor.
• For dome cameras, they MUST be installed upside down for better waterproof performance and better motion sensor’s efficiency.
• For better motion detection performance, please install the camera angularly.

If you want to add more cameras to your system, the add-on cameras will similarly need to be paired to the NVR.
