ADDING HDDS/RAID

The ProSeries XVR can have one or two hard disk drives (HDD) depending on the model (HDD max size: 8TB per hard disk). If you want to increase the storage capacity, you can install another physical hard disk drive (or more than one if supported by the recorder) and then format it to

create a standard sequential read/write conguration. When the rst disk gets full, then the second

HDD will be written to, and then the next one, until all HDDs are full. The system will then overwrite

the oldest les rst (FIFO).

From the same screen as before, review the installed HDDs. If you need more space, shut down the system and install additional hard drives as needed.

The following systems have two SATA ports, but have room for only one HDD inside the chassis:

• XVR 4 channel - PRO400X1, PRO404X2

• XVR 8 channel - PRO800X2, PRO808X3

The PRO1600X2 also has 2 SATA ports and does have room for 1 additional HDD inside the chassis.

Uniden ProSeries recorders come with high-quality hard drives designed for digital surveillance systems with continuous 24/7 recording:

• Western Digital Purple Surveillance HDDs

• Seagate SkyHawk Surveillance HDDs

Install the Hard Disk Drives

1. Shut down the XVR system.

2. Unscrew the two thumb screws on the back of the lid, and open the top cover.

3. Mount the new HDDs to hardware rails toward the front of the chassis.

4. Plug in the SATA cables and power cables to the HDDs.

5. Plug the SATA cables into the motherboard.

6. Close the lid and power up the system.

Formatting the HDDs (Optional)

XVR system hard drives are factory formatted.

box in the Format column.

2. Click the Format button at the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Click Conrm in the Make sure to format hard disk? popup window.

NOTE: This will permenantly clear all saved video and images.

4. A window will pop-up and show the disk/array name and formatting progress. The system will give an audible alarm during this process. Click Conrm to close the Format Complete pop-up window.

5. To be safe, uncheck the Format box in the HDD row; click Save in the bottom left corner.

You MUST assign camera channels to be saved to the new array or new HDDs and

arrays, to verify the settings.

CAMERA SETUP

The Uniden ProSeries XVR recorders can record Analog/HD over Coax by connecting cameras to the BNC inputs on the back of the recorder. The IP cameras and the XVR receiver will all have to be in the same IP range for all the devices to be accessed remotely over the LAN. Once each device has an individual IP address, you can open a web browser on a remote computer or device and access the IP cameras or the recorder.

If a WiFi access point is connected to the LAN, you can connect the Uniden ProSeries

Mobile app (or via a web browser) to access the recorder and cameras remotely.

To add IP cameras (IPC) to the XVR you must enable this feature.

IP CAMERA SETUP

The XVR will record 2MP IPCs and 4MP IPCs (but only half as many). Enabling this feature will require resturcture of the channel maximum in the system and then a system reboot, so this feature should be enabled early in the installation process.

1. Power up the system and login as the Admin.

2. Go to System Settings and select Device Settings on the left column.

3. In the Display Mode eld, click the drop down box and select the second option (highlighted in

blue) for BNC and 2MP IPC option (4 channel XVR shown). This option adds the most IPCs.

4. Click the 4th option (which shows 2Digital in the above screenshot) for 4MP cameras, but at half the maximum number of cameras. This doubles the maximum resolution for each camera (if the camera is 4MP or higher), but halves the maximum number of cameras.

5. After the selection is made, select Save in the bottom right corner.

6. A pop-up window will warn that the system will need to be rebooted, so select Conrm and the system will reboot automatically after a short wait.

7. When the XVR is ready, login as Admin, go to Channel Setting, and add the IPCs to the system.

8. Finish setting up all the camera settings for each camera.

NOTES:

• After all the cameras are set up, it is recommended (on a new install) to format the Hard Disk Drive(s) and start fresh.

• 1080p is about 2MP. If your camera's maximum resolution is 1080p, then there is no reason to set the higher resolution (2592 x 1944) option.

• The Channel Setting screen shows different options after IPC is enabled, to allow the scanning and adding of IP addresses. It is suggested you connected the required BNC cameras, and make any desired changes before enabling this IPC option.

Set up IP Addresses

1. From System Setting/Network Parameter/Basic Setting tab, check Use Below IP Address. The

IP, Mask, and Gateway elds become active.

2. Enter a static IP address as assigned by the owner or the IT Department. If your system is not in the same IP range as other computers on the LAN, you will not be able to remotely connect to the system.

3. If given DNS1 and DNS2 settings, enter them in the section below the IP settings [required if connecting to another device by name (not by IP address)], such as an FTP, SMTP, or NTP server.

4. Click Save in the bottom right corner to save. Reboot is not required.

5. Go to Channel Setting/Channel Connecting to add cameras (see Set up IP Cameras on this page. Make sure each camera has a different IP address in the same range as the LAN.

6. Once each device has an individual IP address, open a web browser on a remote computer or device and access the IP cameras or the recorder.

7. If a WiFi access point is connected to the LAN, connect the Uniden ProSeries Mobile app (or via a web browser) to remotely access the recorder and cameras.

Adding Optional IP Cameras

All cameras are assigned to LAN1 IP range.

1. Go to Channel Setting/Channel Connecting. Check Modify the IP address when add channel on the right side of the screen. Click Add All from the left side of the screen. Modify the IP address of IPC displays if needed

2. Select Forced to modify IP address and click Conrm. System changes all of the cameras' IP addresses and adds them to the system.

Prerequisites

• Static IP address in LAN1

• Make sure the IPC range is the same as LAN1 on the system.

• Power up the recorder and select Channel Setting/Channel Connecting.

1. Select search protocols and then click Search. Recorder scans the network for IPCs while a countdown displays in the Search button. When done, a list of IPCs display below the Search button.

2. In the left column, put a check next to the cameras that you want to assign to a channel. Don't worry about the order of channels at this time. As they are checked, the IPC should show up on the right side with a channel number. Follow these guidlines:

• 2MP, 4MP, and 4K cameras - select the IPC with the SLINK protocol (Proto. column).

• IPCs included in a XVR kit - select the I8S protocol for these IPCs.

• IPCs that only show I8 - use this protocol if none of the above don't apply.

• If you are not using a Uniden IPC, select the Onvif protocol.

• If the IPC does not show up, check the IP address and the network, and try again.

3. When the IPC shows up on the right side, it will automatically be assigned the next channel number. After a few seconds, the Status column should display Connect success for each channel. f not, make sure the IPC and the LAN are in the same IP range.

4. On the left side, double left-click the IP address to display the IPS Details pop-up. Review IP address and Subnet Mask. If you are using a non-Uniden IPC, you must create a user name and password. Click Modify, make changes/enter a user name/password, click Modify, OK, and nally Exit. Close the window and return to the Channel Connecting screen.

5. From Channel Setting/Channel Parameter/Display Setting, select a channel in the Channel drop down list. Check the Show Local Channel Name box to create a name to display for that channel (un-check this box if you do not want the name to show up in the picture).

6. After all cameras are connected and working, go to the Preview screen and show all cameras. You can put the cameras in whatever display order you want. With the mouse, click and drag a camera from its current layout location and drop it in another location to swap locations.

Conrm the swap in the pop-up conrmation screen.

ANALOG CAMERA SETUP
