Rack Mount 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 over current 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).

The mouse uses a cursor. Cursors come in many different shapes but are most commonly shaped like an arrow.
Your mouse has two buttons: a left button and a right button. Quickly pressing and releasi ng one of these buttons is called cli cking.
Sometimes you will need to double-click – or click the same button twice quickly.
In this manual, click means to posit ion your mous e cursor on an icon and to s ingle click the le ft button. When a r ight click is required,
this is stated clearly. Double-click also refers to the left button.
The scroll wheel in between the two buttons is added to provide easier scrolling capability. By s imply mov in g the wh eel with your index
finger, you can quickly move through multi ple pages, line, or windows . The wheel may also func tion as a third button al lowing you to

OPTIONAL COMPONENTS
To fully utilize the NVR unit’s potential, several optional Surveillix components are listed below. Contact your dealer for more
information.
• Extra Video Storage Hard Drive – Each NVR unit has a virtually unlimited storage potenti al. By adding additional Vi deo Data
Hard Drives you can extend the amount of Video Data your NVR system can store before overwriting older data.
• NP-FM56USB 56K External Modem – This 56K modem allows you to conn ect the NVR to a standard phone l ine. Using this
modem, you can either connect the unit to the Internet or allow a direct NVR to computer connection.
• PW-UPS UPS Power Backup – UPS Power Backups allow your NVR unit to remain fully f unc tio na l e v en in th e ev e nt of a
power failure. UPS Power Backups also even the fluctuati ng power current out to prov ide a consiste nt, reliable pow er flow. This
creates a stable environment for the NVR unit and reduces failure.
• NP-4PKVM 4 Channel KVM Switch – The 4 Channel KVM switch allows you to have multiple boxes (up to 4) using only
one keyboard, mouse and monitor. You can simply switch between the NVR units using the keyboard.
• Hot Swappable Redundant Power Supplies – Every NVR and EVR has the option of a dual redundant hot swappable power
supply. In the event of a component failure the inoperable power supply may be removed leaving the NVR running so no break in
recording occurs. Simply replace the power supply with a new one and you are finished.
• Raid Controller – A raid controller is available for increased performance or data reliability.
