z Regular demagnetization will keep device maintain proper status.
z 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
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.
3.7.2 Audio Output
The audio output signal parameter is usually over 200mv 1KΩ (BNC). It can directly connect to
low impedance earphone, active sound box or amplifier-drive audio output device.

Page 78
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:
z Use better sound pick-up with better directing property.
z Reduce the volume of the sound box.
z Using more sound-absorbing materials in decoration can reduce voice echo and improve
acoustics environment.
z Adjust the layout to reduce happening of the squeaking.
3.8 Alarm Input and Output Connection
Please refer to the following sheet for alarm input and output connection.
There are two alarm input types for you to select: normal open (NO) and normal close (NC).
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 DVRs or you are connecting one DVR 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 DVR, 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 DVR 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.
3.8.1 Alarm Input and Output Details
You can refer to the following sheet X for alarm input and output information.
Important
Please refer to the specifications for the alarm input and output channel amount. Do not
merely count the alarm input and out channel amount according to the ports on the rear
panel.

4.5.1.2 Redundancy
Redundancy function allows you to memorize record file in several disks. When there is file
damage occurred in one disk, there is a spare one in the other disk. You can use this
function to maintain data reliability and safety.
In the main menu, from Setting to Schedule, you can highlight redundancy button to enable
this function. See Figure 4-14.
In the main menu, from Advanced to HDD management, you can set one or more disk(s) as
redundant. You can select from the dropdown list. See Figure 4-17. System auto overwrites
old files once hard disk is full.
Please note only read/write disk or read-only disk can backup file and support file search
function, so you need to set at least one read-write disk otherwise you can not record video.
Note
About redundancy setup:
z If current channel is not recording, current setup gets activated when the channel begin
recording the next time.
z If current channel is recording now, current setup will get activated right away, the current file
will be packet and form a file, then system begins recording as you have just set.
After all the setups please click save button, system goes back to the previous menu.
