4 Installation and Connections

This chapter describes the installation and connection of HLVR4.
Honeywell
Note
All the installation and operations here should conform to
your local electricity safety rules.

Check Unpacked DVR

When you receive the DVR from the shipping agency, please check whether there is any visible damage to the DVR appearance. 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 on the warranty card. Finally you can remove the protective film of the DVR.

HDD Installation

Calculate HDD Size
This series have no limit to HDD capacity. You can use 120G-750G HDD to guarantee higher stability.
The formula of total HDD size is:
Total Capacity (MB) = Camera Amount * Recording Hours * HDD Usage Per Hour (M/h)
When you calculate the total HD capacity, you should estimate the average HDD capacity per hour for each channel.
For example, for a 4-ch DVR, the average capacity of HDD usage per hour per channel is 200M/h. Now if you hope the DVR can record the video 12 hours each day for 30 days, the total capacity of HDDs needed
13
Installation and Connections
is: 4 channels * 30 days * 12 hours * 200 M/h = 288G. So you need to install one 300G HDD or 2 160G HDDs.
HDD Installation
Data ribbons, fastening screws and smart HDD shelf design are already provided in the accessories.
Please pay attention to HDD jumper: If you just need to install one HDD, you can set the HDD to
Note
Please follow the instructions below to install HDD.
