Before reading this manual

Important Safeguards

1. Read Instructions

All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions

The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3. Cleaning

Unplug this equipment from the wall outlet before cleaning it. Do not use liquid aerosol cleaners. Use a damp soft cloth for cleaning.

4. Attachments

Never add any attachments and/or equipment without the approval of the manufacturer as such additions may result in the risk of fire, electric shock or other personal injury.

5. Water and/or Moisture

Do not use this equipment near water or in contact with water.

6. Ventilation

Place this equipment only in an upright position. This equipment has an open-frame Switching Mode Power Supply (SMPS), which can cause a fire or electric shock if anything is inserted through the ventilation holes on the side of the equipment.

7. Accessories

Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand or table. The equipment may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the equipment. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

This equipment and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.

8. Power Sources

This equipment should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power, please consult your equipment dealer or local power company.

You may want to install a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) system for safe operation in order to prevent damage caused by an unexpected power stoppage. Any questions concerning UPS, consult your UPS retailer.

9. Power Cords

Operator or installer must remove power and TNT connections before handling the equipment.

10. Lightning

For added protection for this equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.

11. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

12. Objects and Liquids

Never push objects of any kind through openings of this equipment as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the equipment.

13. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this equipment yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

14. Damage requiring Service

Unplug this equipment from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

A. When the power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged.

B. If liquid is spilled, or objects have fallen into the equipment.

C. If the equipment has been exposed to rain or water.

D. If the equipment does not operate normally by following the operating instructions, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the equipment to its normal operation.

E. If the equipment has been dropped, or the cabinet damaged.

F. When the equipment exhibits a distinct change in performance ─ this indicates a need for service.

15. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

16. Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this equipment, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the equipment is in proper operating condition.

17. Field Installation

This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local codes.

18. Correct Batteries

Warning: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

19. Tmra

A manufacturer’s maximum recommended ambient temperature (Tmra) for the equipment must be specified so that the customer and installer may determine a suitable maximum operating environment for the equipment.

20. Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature

If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient.

Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (Tmra).

21. Reduced Air Flow

Installation of the equipment in the rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

22. Mechanical Loading

Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not caused by uneven mechanical loading.

23. Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to connection of the equipment to supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

24. Reliable Earthing (Grounding)

Reliable grounding of rack mounted equipment should be maintained.

Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).

• Limit Time-Lapse Recording: You can store event recording data for longer. If you do not wish to use

Limit Time-Lapse Recording, select Never. This function is activated when data has been stored for longer than as configured because the recording disk has sufficient capacity and saves new data by overwriting Time Lapse Recording data that are older than as specified under Recycle mode.

• If the recording stored on the disk is shorter than the duration specified under Limit Time-Lapse

Recording, the older of Event Recording or Time

Recording data is deleted first.

Overlapped Recording Search

If the system’s clock is changed to a point in the past, overlapping recordings may be produced. Overlapped recordings have to be searched in segments.

For example, making a recording from 1 o’clock to 5 o’clock, changing the system’s clock at 5 o’clock to 3 o’clock, and then continuing to record until 6 o’clock produces two recordings that overlap between 3 o’clock and 5 o’clock. This results in two segments for the period between 3 and 5.

Segment 1

1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00 5:00

• Printer Model

– File Printer: Save the current frame to the USB storage device or the NetFS site as a .pdf file that can be printed on the printer connected to a computer.

– PostScript Printer: Print images on a PostScript™ printer connected to the DVR.

Images saved as PDF files can be printed on any printer connected to your PC.

• Paper Size: Select the desired paper size.

• File name: Designate a name for the file if it is a file printer.

Segment 2

3:00 4:00 5:00 6:00

When searching overlapped video recordings, you can choose a specific point in time or a time frame. If you use the Go to the Date/Time option and select a point within the overlapped time period (4 o’clock, for example), you must specify 4 o’clock in which of the two existing segments.

If you use the Event Log Search or Motion Detection option and select a time frame within the overlapped time period (4 o’clock to 5 o’clock, for example), you must choose between the two redundant sets of From and To values. Selectable search ranges are as follows:

• 4 o’clock in segment 1 to 5 o’clock in segment 1

• 4 o’clock in segment 1 to 5 o’clock in segment 2

• 4 o’clock in segment 2 to 5 o’clock in segment 2

• On Microsoft Windows Vista or above, lowered image transmission rate can prevent the screen from being displayed or updated. In this case, we recommend that you disable the computer's auto tuning function. Open the command prompt as an administrator. (Start

→ Accessories → Command Prompt → Right-Click and then select Run as

administrator) Type in "netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disable" and then press Enter. Restart the computer to apply the change. To enable auto tuning again, launch the command prompt as an administrator and then type in "netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal". Restart the computer to apply the change.
