CONNECTING POWER
The power supply incorporated into the DVR5100 is tested and certified for high reliability applications. The unit has an autoranging power
supply that adapts automatically to voltages between 100 VAC and 240 VAC (50/60 Hz).
For greater reliability, you can also install an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) (not supplied). UPS devices maintain a limited amount of backup
battery power in case the main power fails. The UPS should have a minimum rating of 60 VA for 115 VAC or 75 VA for 230 VAC.
NOTE: The DVR5100 does not support intelligent UPS operation.
To connect power:
1. Connect one of the supplied US, European, or UK standard power cords to rear of the unit.
2. Connect the cord to the appropriate power source.
Refer to Starting and Stopping the DVR5100 on page 49 for instructions on starting the unit.
CONNECTING A SPOT MONITOR
Use the SEQ output connector during installation to display video sequentially from each video input. The unit displays each channel for two
seconds. It displays a black screen for channels without video. Use this feature to verify camera installation.
To display video from each connected video source:
1. Connect a video monitor to the SEQ output connector.
2. Turn on the DVR5100, the monitor, and each video source.
3. Verify the video from each source and troubleshoot as necessary.
4. If you do not see video from all video sources on the spot monitor, refer to Camera Setup on page 75 for information on setting up a spot
monitor.
CONNECTING A DVR5100 IN A NETWORK CONFIGURATION
The DVR5100 supports remote viewing and administration in client-server configurations. The DVR5100 is compatible with the TCP/IP protocol
and Fast Ethernet (1000BaseT) network connection. Consult your network administrator before installing the DVR5100 to avoid possible network
conflicts.
For TCP/IP access, connect the DVR5100 to a 10/100/1000 Mbps, switched Ethernet network. Use standard Cat5 or better UTP cable with RJ-45
connectors.
To configure the DVR5100 hardware for network access:
1. Connect one end of the UTP cable to the network port on the back panel of the DVR5100 as shown in Figure 22.
2. Connect the other end of the UTP cable to an available port on a standard Fast Ethernet switch.
