Quick Start Guide
The unit supports Video Inputs via
the 75Ω BNC connectors. Connect cameras to the video inputs starting from input 1.
The two rows of connectors provide video input and loop-through support. For consistency, DM recommend one
other for loop-through connections.
Note: Remember the last piece of equipment in line must be terminated.
The unit supports a main monitor via BNC ‘MON A’ and a spot monitor via BNC ‘MON B’.
Note: The DV-IP RT additionally supports a main monitor connection via the HDMI port. The DV-IP Express additionally supports a main monitor connection via the VGA port.
The unit supports two channels of bi-directional audio (accessible through NetVu ObserVer). Connect the audio equipment to the phono sockets AUDIO IN and AUDIO OUT. The audio channel defaults to record camera channel 1.
Note: The DV-IP RT additionally supports real time audio per camera channel.
The unit has an internal power supply unit. Connect the mains lead to the unit and then to the wall socket, or to a fused spur connection. Check local regulations before installation. Some countries require an Alarm/Security device be connected to a fused spur and not a wall outlet socket.

To access the unit via DNS, the default address will be:
<machine serial number>.<yourdomain>.com
The <machine serial number> is displayed on the underside of the unit (and on the System menu page) <yourdomain> relates to the name assigned to your DNS network. The default DNS address can be renamed via the Network menu.
1. Launch Internet Explorer (or other web browser package).
2. Type the URL for the unit.
3. The opening menu page will be displayed.
Installing The Unit
When accessing the Conguration menus, the menu tree will be displayed. Relevant menus can be accessed directly via the coloured softkey options shown at the base of each menu. The options available will depend on the menu being viewed. Select a softkey option by pressing either the corresponding button on the IR Remote Control (if viewing the menus locally), or by selecting the relevant option via the mouse (if viewing the webpages).
Navigating The Conguration Menus
Note: Any changes are automatically saved when the page is closed. To ‘manually’
save changes, select the Save option.
Softkey Guidance
The IR Remote Control and optional Keyboard have a common user interface. In addition to the direct action keys (rewind, fast forward etc.) there are coloured Softkeys that are context sensitive and enable rapid access to required functions.

Connecting Storage Devices
Images are recorded to the internal hard disk for instant playback and searching by the operator. The capacity of the internal disk effects the amount of images and time period that can be recorded.
The internal hard disk is a temporary storage device as images are overwritten after a set period.
If images need to be held for a longer time period, external storage is required. The SATA ports on the rear of the unit are used to connect to external storage devices. The unit can support multiple external hard disks. To maintain an effective SATA link, the length of all cabling from the unit to the connected device should not exceed two metres.
The unit’s operating system will continue to utilise the internal hard disks if the external hard drive encounters a problem.
Dedicated Micros Managed Storage Expansion units
A DM Managed Storage Expansion unit is connected via the SATA port. A Managed Storage Expansion unit provides high capacity, environmentally managed storage in a single box. Disk temperature is maintained at a constant level and the disk management system ensures only disks in operation are spun. Both of these features help extend drive life. For further information regarding the DM Managed Storage Expansion unit, please contact Dedicated Micros technical support team.
Virtual Keyboard
If numeric or text data requires entry when viewing menus on a local monitor, an on-screen virtual keyboard (the Arrow Key Editor) will be displayed. Use the Directional buttons on the IR Remote Control to move between characters. Use the OK button to select a character. To enter details and then exit the Virtual Keyboard, select the OK option. Select Submit to enter details and return to the Virtual Keyboard. Select Cancel to exit the Virtual Keyboard without entering any text.
