TruVision NVR 10 User Manual 1
Chapter 1
Product overview
Installation environment
The TruVision NVR 10 is a versatile, user-friendly embedded network video recorder
(NVR) allowing end-users to record up to 16 cameras with a maximum total input
bandwidth of 20/40/80 Mbps for 4, 8, and 16 channels, while providing integration with
the UTC portfolio of security solutions, and offering a seamless product experience
within the TruVision brand.
Its embedded PoE ports allow for a true plug and play setup for TruVision IP cameras
where the recorder automatically assigns the IP camera with an IP address and sets it
up at default configurations. Adding cameras was never easier.
Note: The non-PoE version of the NVR is not available in the Americas.
Its dual streaming functionality allows the user to set up different settings for recording
and streaming video in live view mode using main and substrea ms .
The TruVision NVR 10 can be configured through the OSD, web browser, and
TruVision Navigator via the SDK.
It can fully integrate with the license-free TruVision Navigator software, which is ideal
for most commercial applications. TVN 10’s easy and intuitive-to-use web browser
interface enables remote configuration and secure viewing, searching, and playing
back of video from computers connected via the Internet.

Installation
This section describes how to install the TVN 10 unit.
Installation environment
When installing your product, consider these factors:
• Ventilation
• Temperature
• Moisture
• Chassis load
Ventilation: Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure that the location planned for the installation of the
unit is well ventilated.
Temperature: Consider the unit’s operating temperature (-10 to +55 ºC, 14 to 131 °F)
and noncondensing humidity specifications (10 to 90%) before choosing an installation
location. Extremes of heat or cold beyond the specified operating temperature limits
may reduce the life expectancy of the NVR. Do not install the unit on top of other hot
equipment. Leave 44 mm (1.75 in.) of space between rack-mounted TruVision NV R 10
units.
Moisture: Do not use the unit near water. Moisture can damage the internal
components. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain
or moisture.
Chassis: Equipment weighing less than 15.9 kg (35 lb.) may be placed on top of the
unit.

Controlling the TVN 10
There are several ways to control the NVR:
• Front panel control
• Mouse control
• IR remote control
• TVK-800 keypad control (soon to be released)
• Web browser control
You can use your preferred control method for any procedure, but in most cases we
describe procedures using mouse terminology. Optional control methods are given only
when they differ substantially from mouse control methods.
Using the front panel
The function buttons on the front panel control can be used to operate many, but not
all, of the main functions of the NVR. The LED indicators light up or flash to alert you of
various conditions. The functions available can be limited by setting passwords. See

Using the IR remote control
The NVR is supplied with an infra red (IR) remote control unit. Like the mouse, it can be
used to operate all of the main functions o f th e NVR.
The IR remote control can be programmed with a unique device ID address so that the
controller will only be able to communicate with NVRs with that address. No
programming is necessary if using a single NVR.
The device ID address only applies when using a remote control and not when using a
keypad.
You can purchase a remote control by ordering part number TVR-REMOTE-1 IR
Remote Control.
Note: The IR remote control is a common accessory for multiple TruVision recorders.
Consequently not all functionality listed for the remote control is available in the
