3 Installation and Connections
Note: All the installation and operations here should conform to your local electric safety code.
3.1 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.
3.2 HDD Installation
3.2.1 Choose HDDs
We recommend Seagate HDD of 7200rpm or higher.
3.2.2 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) H.264 compression is ideal for standalone DVRs. It can save more than 30% HDD capacity than MPEG4. 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 is: 4 channels * 30 days * 12 hours * 200 M/h = 288G. So you need to install one 300G HDD or 2*160G HDDs.
3.2.3 HDD Installation
Data ribbons, fastening screws and smart HDD shelf design are already provided in the accessories.
1. Fix the HDD on the bracket. 2. Connet power and data cable.

3.8 RS232
You can connect the DVR with POS or Keyboard through RS232. With POS system, the DVR can communicate through RS232 and network. For the POS system, the DVR can integrate the text content and even search the record through the info. The series DVR also support NKB operation. You can operate the DVR from the keyboard controls instead of using the control pad on the front panel of the unit. To connect a NKB keyboard to the DVR:
1. Assemble the KBD keyboard according to the instructions in its accompanying installation manual.
26
2. Connect the KBD keyboard into one of the RS232 ports on the DVR or through network.
3.9 RS485
When the DVR 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 DVR. Since RS485 is disabled by default for each camera, you need to enable the PTZ settings first. This series DVRs support multiple protocols such as Pelco-D, Pelco-P. To connect PTZ devices to the DVR:
1. Connect RS485 A,B on the DVR rear panel.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the proper pins in the connector on the camera.
3. Follow the instructions for configuring a camera to enable each PTZ device on the DVR.
3.10 Other Interfaces
There are still other interfaces on the DVR, such as USB ports. You can refer to the Figure 3-9 for more information.
