The first step in installing the hard drive is to insert the hard drive sleeve into the machine. The
hard disk drive default setting is initially set to master. The second step is to insert the key provided and
turn the tray key to the lock position. If this process is ignored the hard disk drive will not be detected.
Follow the previous steps for the second hard drive or second empty sleeve.
Note: If the Hard Disk Drive is not locked in with the key, HDD LED will not be lighted
up, since HDD cannot be detected and the DVR will not go into record mode. This is
because the Hard Drive is not being recognized.
