Please take note of the followings before using this product.

• Do not use the product outdoor.

• Do not spill water or liquid in the connection part of the product.

• Do not impose the system to excessive shock or force.

• Do not pull out the power plug forcefully.

• Do not disassemble the product on your own.

• Do not exceed the rated input/output range.

• Use a certified power cord only.

• For the product with an input ground, use a grounded power plug.

CHECKING THE INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

This product is a top-notch security device that is equipped with a high-capacity HDD and other key circuit boards.

Note that an excessive internal temperature of the product may cause a system failure or a shortened product life (see the right figure). Keep in mind the following instructions before installing the product.

When mounting the product on a rack, comply with the following instructions.

1. Please ensure that the rack inside is not sealed.

2. Please ensure the air is circulated through the inlet/outlet as shown in the picture.

3. If you pile up the prudcts or other rack-mount devices as shown in figure 2, secure room for

ventilation or install a vent.

4. For natural air convection, place the inlet at the bottom of the rack and the outlet on top.

5. It is strongly recommended that a fan motor is installed at the inlet and the outlet for air

circulation. (Please fit a filter at the inlet to screen dust or foreign substances.)

6. Please maintain the temperature inside the rack or surrounding areas between 0°C ~ 40°C

(32°F ~ 104°F) as shown in the figure 1.

Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions :

A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the

operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required

for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is

not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit

and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should

be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

RACK INSTALLATION

Install the Bracket-Rack as shown in the figure, and then fasten the screws on both sides (2 screws on each side).

` Fix the screws not to be loosened by vibrations.

HDD ADDITION

Make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet to prevent possible electric shock, injury or product damage. Please consult your provider for further information on HDD installation since improper installation or settings may damage the product.

` Number of HDDs supported : Up to 8

` Make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before proceeding with the installation.

` HDD-equipped model is installed with one HDD when shipped.

` Cautions for data loss (HDD care)

Please pay attention so that the data inside the HDD is not damaged. Before adding a HDD, please check the compatibility with this product. HDD is vulnerable to malfunction due to its sensitive nature especially against shock when operating. Please ensure that the HDD is free from such shock. We are not liable for any damage to the HDD incurred by user's carelessness or miss use.

` Cases might cause damage to HDD or recorded data

To minimize the risk of data loss from a damaged HDD, please backup data as often as possible. If exposed to shock when disassembling or installing, data stored in the hard disk may be damaged. A sudden power failure or turning off the product while in HDD operation may damage the hard disk drive. HDD or files stored inside may be damaged if the main body is moved or impacted during the HDD operation.

● INSTALLATION

Cautions when installing a HDD

1. When adding a HDD, ensure that the cable does not get caught or the insulation does not come off.

2. Pay attention so as not to lose the disassembly screws or accessories.

` If the screws or accessories are not put together correctly, the product may breakdown or not operate properly.

3. Please check the HDD compatibility before adding a HDD.

` Please contact your nearest dealer to obtain the list of compatible devices.

PORT RANGE FORWARD (PORT MAPPING) SETUP

If you have installed a Broadband Router with a NVR connected, you must set the port range forwarding on the Broadband Router so that a remote PC can access the camera in it.

Manual Port Range Forwarding

1. Broadband Router, select <Applications & Gaming>

- <Port Range Forward>. For setting the port range forward for a third-party Broadband Router, refer to the user guide of that Broadband Router.

2. Select <TCP> and <UDP Port> for each connected NVR's

to the Broadband Router. Each port number for the Broadband Router should match that specified in <Network>-<Interface>-<Port> from the NVR's Setup menu.

3. When done, click [Save Settings].

Your settings will be saved.

` Above sample instructions are based on the CISCO’s Broadband

Router.

` The settings may differ depending on the connected Broadband Router model.

For more information, refer to the user manual of the applicable router.

CONNECTING TO THE NVR FROM A SHARED LOCAL PC USING IP INSTALLER

1. Run the IP Installer.

It will scan for connected NVRs and display them as a list.

2. Double-click a NVR to access.

The Internet browser starts and connects to the NVR.

` Access to the NVR can also be gained by typing the NVR's IP

address in the address bar of the Internet browser.

CONNECTING TO THE NVR FROM A REMOTE PC VIA THE INTERNET

Since using the IP Installer on a remote computer that is not in the Broadband Router’s network cluster is not allowed, users can access NVRs within a Broadband Router’s network by using the NVR's DDNS URL.

1. Before you can access a NVR in the Broadband Router network, you should have set the port range

forward for the Broadband Router.

2. From the remote PC, launch the Internet browser and type the DDNS URL address of the NVR, or the IP

address of the Broadband Router in the address bar. ex) http://www.samsungipolis.com/[Product ID]
