3 Device Installation
Note: All the installation and operations here should conform to your local electric
safety rules.
3.1 Check Unpacked Device
When you received the device from the shipping agency, please check whether there is any visible damage. The protective materials used for the package of the device 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 device. 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.
3.2 Connection Sample
The connection sample is shown as in Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-1
Page 15

Figure 3-2
3.3 Connecting Power Supply
Please check input voltage and device power button match or not. We recommend you use UPS to guarantee steady operation, NVS life span, and other peripheral equipment operation such as cameras.
3.4 Connecting Video Input and Output Devices
3.4.1 Connecting Video Input
The video input interface is BNC. The input video format includes: PAL/NTSC BNC (1.0V
P-P
, 75Ω.) 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 NVS should have the same grounding to ensure the normal
Page 16
10
operation of the camera.
Guarantee stability and reliability of the transmission line
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 contact
The signal line and shielded wire should be fixed firmly and in well connection. Avoid dry joint, lap welding and oxidation.
3.4.2 Connecting Video Output
System supports TV output. 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.
3.5 Connecting Audio Input & Output, Bidirectional Audio
3.5.1 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.
3.5.2 Audio Output
The audio output signal parameter is usually over 200mv 1KΩ (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.
3.6 Alarm Input and Output Connection
Page 17
11
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 NVSs or you are connecting one NVS 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 NVS; 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 NVS 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 RS485
When the NVS 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 NVS. Since RS485 is disabled by default for each camera, you must enable the PTZ settings first. This series NVSs support multiple protocols such as Pelco-D, Pelco-P. To connect PTZ devices to the NVS:
1. Connect RS485 A,B on the NVS 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 NVS.

Device IP is not fixed if you use ADSL to login the network. The DDNS function allows you to access the DVR via the registered domain name. Besides the general DDNS, the Dahua DDNS works with the device from the manufacturer so that it can add the extension function.
2) Function Introduction
The Dahua DDNS client has the same function as other DDNS client end. It realizes the bonding of the domain name and the IP address. Right now, current DDNS server is for our own devices only. You need to refresh the bonding relationship of the domain and the IP regularly. There is no user name, password or the ID registration on the server. At the same time, each device has a default domain name (Generated by MAC address) for your option. You can also use customized valid domain name (has not registered.).
3) Operation
Before you use Dahua DDNS, you need to enable this service and set proper server address, port value and domain name.
Server addresswww.dahuaddns.com Port number80 Domain nameThere are two modes: Default domain name and customized domain
name.
Except default domain name registration, you can also use customized domain name (You can input your self-defined domain name.) After successful registration, you can use domain name to login installed of the device IP.
User name: It is optional. You can input your commonly used email address.
Important
Do not register frequently. The interval between two registrations shall be more than
