CONNECTING THE CAMERA, MONITOR AND AUDIO

Connecting to the monitor

The resolution of the monitor can affect the video output. Check the resolutions that the monitor supports before connecting to the monitor.

• Using the HDMI port: 1920x1080p (HDMI V1.2 standard)

• Using the VGA port: 1920x1080p RB (VESA standard)

 Note that the HDMI monitor and VGA monitor cannot used simultaneously for video output.

 However, some of Samsung or LG manufactured monitors can be used simultaneously for video output if either monitor

supports both resolutions of 1080p and 1920x1080p RB.

Power Connection

• When the DVR is connected to the power source, it will be applied with power and start booting automatically.

• With DVR turned on, press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds to display the dialog. Click <YES> to turn off the power.

• If you want to turn it back on, simply press the Power button.
