Preface
What is in this guide
This manual contains specific procedures for the initial hardware installation, and
procedures for performing the basic system configuration of your TruVision NVR 40
unit.
Audience
Setting up and maintaining a network requires the knowledge and expertise of
people with a variety of skills. In many cases, the people responsible for installing
hardware and wiring are not the ones who configure the software and administer the
network; therefore, this publication provides information specific to installing the
hardware and performing a basic system configuration. To use this publication, you
should be familiar with electronic circuitry and wiring practices, and basic network
configuration, and preferably have experience as an electronic or electromechanical
technician.

Safety guidelines
Safety guidelines
Safe handling
Permanently unplug the unit if you think that it has become damaged and before you
move it.
WARNING:
• A fully assembled TruVision NVR 40 unit can weigh up to 18 kg (40 lb.). Be careful
when lifting it by yourself.
Safety
• The TruVision NVR 40 unit must only be operated from a power supply input
voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.
• The plug on the power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure
that the socket outlets are located near the equipment and are easily accessible.
• A safe electrical earth connection must be provided to the power cord. Check the
grounding of the unit before applying power.
• Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to meet the
requirements laid down in the technical specification.
Equipment handling precautions
Caution: The RJ45 sockets are for Ethernet connection only and must not be
connected to a telecommunications network.
Rack system safety precautions
The following safety requirements must be considered when the unit is mounted in a
rack.
• The unit must be mounted in a 19” rack.
• The rack construction must be capable of supporting the total weight of the
installed unit(s) and the design should incorporate stabilizing features suitable to
prevent the rack from tipping or being pushed over during installation or in
normal use.
• When loading a rack with the units, fill the rack from the bottom up and empty
from the top down.
WARNING: To avoid danger of the rack toppling over, do not slide more than one unit
out of the rack at a time.
4 TruVision NVR 40 User Manual
Safety guidelines
• The rack design should take into consideration the maximum operating ambient
temperature for the unit, which is 40°C (104°F).
• The rack should have a safe electrical distribution system. It must provide
overcurrent protection for the unit and must not be overloaded by the total
number of units installed in the rack. When addressing these concerns
consideration should be given to the electrical power consumption rating shown
on the nameplate.
• The electrical distribution system must provide a reliable earth for each unit and
the rack.
• The rack when configured with the units must meet the safety requirements of UL
60950-1 and IEC 60950-1.
Removing the battery on the motherboard
This product contains one CR2032-type single-use battery. When replacing the
TruVision NVR 40, dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or
regulations. See “Battery removal/disposal” on page 29, for more information on the
removal of the battery.

Physical description
The TruVision NVR 40 unit is a 2U high enclosure for 19’ rack mounting.
TruVision NVR 40 front panel
Figure 2: TruVision NVR 40 front panel
The TruVision NVR 40 unit has all its connectors on the front panel. All functions are
thus accessible via the front panel. This includes all interface modules, start button,
and all the connectors. For an exhaustive list of connectors, see Figure 7 on page 14
and section “Front panel connectors” on page 14.

TruVision NVR 40 unit overview
There are also three LEDs to monitor the status of the main functions of the unit. See
section Figure 10 on page 16 for more LED details.
The unit has one handle on each side of the front panel to facilitate operations. These
handles need to be installed. See section “Installing handles” on page 12.
These two mounting handles on each side of the unit also make it possible to rackmount the chassis. See section “Rack-mounting the ” on page 13.
TruVision NVR 40 rear panel
The rear panel of the TruVision NVR 40 only contains the fans and has no connectors.
This design is user-friendly, because equipment is rack-mounted and therefore
difficult to reach from the rear panel.
Moreover, the cooling fans can directly pump air up through the rear panel that is
covered by protective foam and expel the air via the front panel.
Figure 3: TruVision NVR 40 rear panel
See “Replacing fans” on page 30 for more information on replacing fans.

TruVision NVR 40 unit overview
Interface module
The interface modules provide additional low-cost, non-isolated serial
communication ports and I/Os.
Figure 4: Interface module
Serial port
The half/full duplex wiring selection is done by software, controlling both the H/F
input pin of the transceiver that internally connects Tx and Rx as well as selective
enabling for the receive and Transmit drivers. A switch enables the termination
resistor. Rx and Tx resistors are activated independently. Terminations are enabled by
default. Serial ports have been ESD protected. The differential drivers/receivers used
(MAX3089E), offers the following characteristics:
• Fail safe Receiver
• RS-422/RS-485 electrical compatibility
• Enhanced electrostatic discharge protection
• Selectable between half and full duplex operation
Transistor I/Os
The 4 general-purpose inputs are pulled up to high level and trigger when the circuit
is closed to the ground (active low). Inputs allow high level up to 48V. When an input is
high, its respective LED is OFF. The LED is ON when the input is grounded.
The 2 general outputs are open collectors (normally open). The maximum output
current is 500mA and outputs are able to switch signal of up to 48V. Led is OFF when
output is open. LED is ON when output is grounded (or closed).
