Introduction
The Avigilon Network Video Recorder is preloaded with the Avigilon Control Center software and is
configured for maximum performance and reliability. The Network Video Recorder can be easily integrated
into any existing Avigilon security system, or act as the base of a new site.
Before YouStart
Avigilon recommends the use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to protect your video
surveillance system hardware. A UPS system is used to protect critical equipment from mains supply
problems, including spikes, voltage dips, fluctuations and complete power failures using a dedicated
battery. It can also be used to power equipment during the time it takes for a standby generator to be
started and synchronized.
Any UPS connection must include configuration to shut down the Windows operating system on the
appliance when battery power is low or there is 15 minutes of power remaining.
It is recommended that cameras not be connected to the appliance until after the appropriate network
configuration has been set up.
