This chapter provides instructions on installing and connecting the cameras supplied with the system and connecting the DVR.
INSTALLING AND CONNECTING THE CAMERAS
Here are some general safety and installation tips when installing the cameras:
Do not attempt to open a camera. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
When using power tools wear safety goggles. Before drilling holes through a wall or ceiling, check for hidden electricity cables and water pipes.
When installing a camera on an external wall, pass the power cable through the wall as close as possible to the camera to reduce the chance of tampering. After drilling any hole though an external wall for cable, make sure the hole is sealed around the cable.
1Select the position for the camera and install a mounting bracket (supplied).
Screws and anchors are supplied. Use an appropriate screw type for the mounting surface.
2Screw the camera onto the bracket. Tighten the lock nut to secure the camera on the bracket.

4(optional) Attach a ground wire from the GND connector on the DVR to an appropriate ground (e.g., mounting screw on the receptacle cover plate).
5Press the LCD Power button on the front of the DVR to turn on display. This button only controls the display, not the DVR unit.
The POWER indicator light on the front panel will light. When system initialization (boot up) is complete, the image from each active camera will display on the quad-screen monitor. The RUN indicator will flash when the system is operating in normal mode.
Note: Be sure to connect all components to the monitor prior to plugging in unit.
6(optional) The DVR can be connected to an external display (i.e. television or computer monitor) to view live video feed via the Video Out connection. Though the DVR screen is programmed to shut off after 30 minutes to protect the display from overheating, the video feed will continue without interruption if connected to an external display.
