Chapter 1 Introduction

AVerMedia AVerDVR is a 32-bit PCI video capture card that works as a digital video surveillance
system. It enables you to capture true color images and real-time videos from 4 up to 16 camera
inputs simultaneously.

With the latest Motion Detection technology, you no longer need to monitor every single moment of the
day; the system automatically records and triggers an alarm when any movement is detected.

2.3 NV3000T/5000T/6000T/7240/7480/8416T/9416T Hardware Combinations

AVerMedia NV DVR provides powerful surveillance functions and flexible hardware combinations. The
table shows the numbers of camera inputs, audio inputs, sensor inputs and relay outputs on different
hardware combinations.

Before installing the cards, the computer must be turned OFF, the power cable must be

UNPLUGGED and all other cables that are attached at the back of the computer must be
DISCONNECTED.

When installing multiple cards, it is important to arrange the cards in sequence so that the
cables would not tangle up.
