4 Connect alarm inputs and alarm relay output as follows:
a. Inputs – Connect wiring (not supplied) to your alarms (not supplied). Two wires
are required for each alarm. You can have one alarm for each camera.
b. Output – Connect wiring (not supplied) to a 12 VDC light or buzzer (not supplied).
Two wires are required.
c. Bring the alarm input and output wiring to the back of the DVR and thread the
wiring through the Induced Voltage Protector (supplied). Loop the wiring over the
voltage protector and thread it through the voltage protector a second time.
d. Connect the alarm input wires to the SENSOR connectors.

5 Connect the recorder to power.
a. Place the NTSC/PAL switch in the proper mode.
b. If applicable, connect the 230 VAC adapter to the end of the power cord. Plug in
the power cord.
c. Turn on the DVR. When the recorder is turned on for the first time, the Help
screens will appear on the monitor. To bypass the Help screens, press the Play/
Pause button.
6 Turn on the cameras and monitor. The DVR begins recording the cameras.
IMPORTANT– If you have any unused camera inputs, the video appears washed out.
The degree of washout depends on how many inputs have no cameras connected to
them. If only one camera is connected, the video is completely washed out. When you
program the DVR (step 9), you must turn off any unused camera inputs. Video
will then appear normal.
7 Go to
Time Menu
in the
Programming
section and set the time and date.
8 Initialize the DVR. Refer to the instructions on a separate sheet.
This is a necessary step as the DVR may not operate properly during playback and
search operation if there are conflicts in the date and time. Initializing the DVR erases
all data on the hard disk drive so that you start with a clean file management system
for your recordings.
9 Proceed to the
Programming
section to set up the recording parameters and enter a
password (optional).
