When you receive the DVR from the forwarding agent, please check whether there is any visible
damage. The protective materials used for the package of the DVR can protect most accidental clashes
during transportation. Then you can open the box to check the accessories.
Please check the items in accordance with the list. Finally you can remove the protective film of the DVR.

3.2 About Front Panel and Rear Panel

The model label in the front panel is very important; please check according to your purchase order.

3.4 Connecting Power Supply

Please check input voltage and device power button match or not.
We recommend you use UPS to guarantee steady operation, DVR life span, and other peripheral
equipments operation such as cameras.

3.5 Connecting Video Input and Output Devices

3.5.1 Connecting Video Input

The video input interface is BNC. The input video format includes: PAL/NTSC BNC（1.0VB

B75Ω.）

The video signal should comply with your national standards.
The input video signal shall have high SNR, low distortion; low interference, natural color and suitable
lightness.

Guarantee the stability and reliability of the camera signal:

The camera shall be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, inflammable, explosive
substances and etc.
The camera and the DVR should have the same grounding to ensure the normal operation of the
camera.

Guarantee stability and reliability of the transmission lineBTTTB

Please use high quality, sound shielded BNC. Please select suitable BNC model according to the
transmission distance.
If the distance is too long, you should use twisted pair cable, and you can add video compensation
devices or use optical fiber to ensure video quality.
You should keep the video signal away from the strong electromagnetic interference, especially the high
tension current.

Keep connection lugs in well contactBTTTB

The signal line and shielded wire should be fixed firmly and in well connection. Avoid dry joint, lap
welding and oxidation.B TTTB

3.5.2 Connecting Video Output

Video output includes a BNC(PAL/NTSC1.0V
supports BNC, VGA and HDMI output at the same time.
When you are using pc-type monitor to replace the monitor, please pay attention to the following points:

 To defer aging, do not allow the pc monitor to run for a long time.
 Regular demagnetization will keep device maintain proper status.
 Keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference devices.

Using TV as video output device is not a reliable substitution method. You also need to reduce the
working hour and control the interference from power supply and other devices. The low quality TV may
result in device damage.

3.6 Connecting Audio Input & Output, Bidirectional Audio

3.6.1 Audio Input

These series products audio input port adopt BNC port.
Due to high impedance of audio input, please use active sound pick-up.
Audio transmission is similar to video transmission. Try to avoid interference, dry joint, loose contact and
it shall be away from high tension current.

3.6.2 Audio Output

The audio output signal parameter is usually over 200mv 1KΩ (BNC or RCA). It can directly connect to
low impedance earphone, active sound box or amplifier-drive audio output device.
If the sound box and the pick-up cannot be separated spatially, it is easy to arouse squeaking. In this
case you can adopt the following measures:

 Use better sound pick-up with better directing property.
 Reduce the volume of the sound box.
 Using more sound-absorbing materials in decoration can reduce voice echo and improve acoustics

environment.

 Adjust the layout to reduce happening of the squeaking.

3.7 Alarm Input and Output Connection

Please read the followings before connecting.

1. Alarm input

a. Please make sure alarm input mode is grounding alarm input.
b. Grounding signal is needed for alarm input.
c. Alarm input needs the low level voltage signal.
d. Alarm input mode can be either NC (normal Open) or NO (Normal Close)
e. When you are connecting two DVRs or you are connecting one DVR and one other device, please
use a relay to separate them,

2. Alarm output

The alarm output port should not be connected to high power load directly (It shall be less than 1A) to
avoid high current which may result in relay damage. Please use the co contactor to realize the
connection between the alarm output port and the load.

3. How to connect PTZ decoder

a. Ensure the decoder has the same grounding with DVR, otherwise you may not control the PTZ.
Shielded twisted wire is recommended and the shielded layer is used to connect to the grounding.
b. Avoid high voltage. Ensure proper wiring and some thunder protection measures.

c. For too long signal wires, 120Ω should be parallel connected between A, B lines on the far end to

reduce reflection and guarantee the signal quality.
d. “485 A, B” of DVR cannot parallel connect with “485 port” of other device.
e. The voltage between of A,B lines of the decoder should be less than 5v.

4. Please make sure the front-end device has soundly earthed.

Improper grounding may result in chip damage.

3.7.1 Alarm Input and Output Details

Important
Please refer to the specifications for the alarm input and output channel amount. Do not merely
count the alarm input and out channel amount according to the ports on the rear panel.

3.7.3 Alarm Output Port

 Provide external power to external alarm device.
 To avoid overloading, please read the following relay parameters sheet carefully.
 RS485 A/B cable is for the A/B cable of the PTZ decoder.

 T+,T-,R+,R- are four-wire double duplex RS485 port.

T+ T-: output wire

R+ R-: input wire

Relay Specification

3.8 RS485

76

When the DVR receives a camera control command, it transmits that command up the coaxial cable to the
PTZ device. RS485 is a single-direction protocol; the PTZ device can’t return any data to the unit. To enable
the operation, connect the PTZ device to the RS485 (A,B) input on the DVR.
Since RS485 is disabled by default for each camera, you must enable the PTZ settings first. This series
DVRs support multiple protocols such as Pelco-D, Pelco-P.
To connect PTZ devices to the DVR:

1. Connect RS485 A,B on the DVR rear panel.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the proper pins in the connector on the camera.

3. Please follow the instructions to configure a camera to enable each PTZ device on the DVR.

3.9 Other Interfaces

There are still other interfaces on the DVR, such as USB ports.
