2 Front Panel/Rear Panel/Installation

Note:
 All the installation and operations here should conform to your local electric

safety rules.

 VGA cable quality and length can affect the video quality. It may result in

distorted video, noise, black margin. The video quality may vary even if you are
viewing the same video via different VGA cables.

2.1 Check Unpacked NVS

When you received the NVS from the shipping agency, please check whether there is any
visible damage. The protective materials used for the package of the NVS 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 NVS.
The label at the bottom of the box is very important. Usually we need you to present the
serial number when we provide the service after sales.

3 Operation

 The following operations are generally based on the 9-channel high definition

series product.

 Slight different may be found in the user interface.

3.1 Boot Up and Shut Down

Boot up

Connect the NVS to the power and then press the power button in the rear panel. You can
see the power indicator light becomes on and NVS boots up.
The system is in multiple-window display mode by default.

Shut down

You can press power button in the front panel for three seconds to shut down the device.

System Restore after Power Failure

When decoder is working, if the power failure occurs, the system can automatically
connect to the front-end device and restore previous working status once the power
connection becomes normal.

3.2 Login

3.2.1 Preparation

Before log in, please make sure:

 NVS connection is OK.
 You have set PC IP address, NVS IP address, subnet mask and gateway. (Please set

the IP address of the same section for the PC and NVS. Please input corresponding
gateway and subnet mask if there are routers.) When NVS booted up normally,
please input account name admin and password admin via the PC COM port., then
input net –a and then input IP, NETMASK, GATEWAY. The command mode is:
net -a [IP] [NETMASDK] [GATEWAY].

For example:

Username: admin

Password: admin

DeBug>net -a 192.168.XXX.XXX 255.255.XXX.XXX 192.168.XXX.XXX

 Use order ping ***.***.***.***(NVS IP address) to check connection is OK or not.

Usually the return TTL value should be less than 255.

4 Alarm Input and Output

Before device connection, please make sure:
 Alarm Input
Please check the alarm type (Normal open/normal close) first. Then set decoder network
alarm type. Set decoder alarm type as NO (Normal Open) if it is ground alarm, otherwise
set it as NC (Normal Close).
Please note alarm input is active in low voltage, please ground it.
Please use a relay to separate devices, when there are two decoders, or there is one
decoder and one another device.

 Alarm Output
Do not connect the alarm output port to high power load directly (It shall be less than 1A);
it may result in heavy current which may destroy the relay. Please use co contactor to
realize the connection between the alarm output port and the load.

 Sound Ground
Please make sure the front-end device has earthed. Otherwise it may result in chip
damage.
Alarm input type can be NO (normal open) or NC (normal close).
