Safety

Connect the system to an earthed main power outlet.
Never open the housing of the power supply unit.
Install and operate the system only in a dry, weather-proof location.
Observe the following safety factors:
Is there visible damage to the system or power cord?
Is the system operating correctly?
Has the system been exposed to rain or moisture?
Has the system been in a long storage under harsh conditions or exposed to unconforming stress?
The relevant electrical engineering regulations must be complied with at all times during
installation.
Ensure that all maintenance and repair work is handled by qualified personnel such as
electrical engineers or network specialists.
Read this manual before installing or operating the system. The documentation contains
important safety instructions about permitted uses.
The rated AC input is: 100-240V~ 2.1A, 60-50Hz; the max. consumption: 120W (DC56V, 2.5A)
If a fault occurs, disconnect the power cord from the power supply.
Do not install the system close to heaters or other heat sources. Avoid locations with direct
sunlight.
All ventilation openings must not be blocked.
Use only the cables shipped with system or use appropriate cables that can withstand elec-
tromagnetic interference.

NOTE:
You can also use the Reset button to restore system defaults. Use a straightened paper clip to press and hold down the button for longer than 5 seconds. The system should start restoring de­faults.
IMPORTANT:
It is important to leave a clearance of 10cm around the chassis. The clearance is required to ensure an ad­equate airow through the chassis to ventilate heat.
To ensure normal operation, maintain ambient airow. Do not block the airow around chassis such as placing the system in a closed cabinet.

Interface Connections
1. Connect to a monitor using an HDMI cable. VGA is also supported.
2. Connect CAT5e or better-quality Ethernet cable to IP cameras. The Ethernet ports provide PoE power. The maximum power per port is 15.4 watts. However, please note that the total budget is 40 watts by every 4 PoE ports.
3. Connect USB devices such as, mouse, keyboard, USB optical drive, or USB thumb drive (for­matted in FAT format), or UPS.
4. Connect external devices, such as sensors, relays, or alarms to the terminal block.
5. Connect the power adaptor to the power mains and the system.

NOTE:
Although the system supports MAC Binding, the system should be able to detect VIVOTEK's
cameras within the network regardless of the presence of a DHCP server. Ideally, cameras and the NVR should reside in the same subnet. If a camera's IP is changed for some reasons, the system should be able to detect its new IP.

IMPORTANT:
1. The PoE ports come with a limitation on power budget. Every 4 ports share a 40 watts
power budget. For network cameras that consume large or additional amount of power, e.g., speed dome or those with embedded IR lights or heater, it is recommended you power these cameras with DC or AC power. You can still connect the Ethernet cables from these cameras to the NVR for data transmission. You can use VIVOTEK's design tool to evaluate the power consumption of network cameras: http://www.vivotek.com/design-tool/
40W budget 40W budget
Please note that when a network camera is powered by a DC/AC source, connect the power
lines rst, before you connect the Ethernet cable. The network cameras will use the DC/AC source as the main power source.
2. The system supports the connection to one H.D.D. via the eSATA connection. The system
does not support the connection to external eSATA housings containing multiple H.D.D.s.
3. The Client computers should support IE10 browser at a minimum of 1280x960 resolution or
higher.
WARNING:
If you connect the NVR to a PoE port of the AW-FED series PoE switch, make sure you turn off the PoE output on that specic port using the onboard DIP switch. Otherwise, the high power output can damage the LAN port on NVR.

A local console requires the following:
1. A monitor is connected via an HDMI or VGA cable.
2. A mouse and/or a keyboard are connected to the system.
3. It is presumed that the system has not been congured yet.
Follow the onscreen messages to complete the initial conguration:
1. Select the UI language, Time zone, and current date and time. Click on the Contunue button to proceed.
Initial Conguration - via a Local Console
IMPORTANT:
Except in the initial setup, changing system time can produce disruptions to the existing recordings. Turning the current system time back to a time when video recording was taking place can generate duplicate les. And those les may not be playable.
User's Manual - 17

2. The system will then start to scan the local subnet for connected cameras.
3. All cameras detected on the network will be automatically selected. If necessary, deselect the cameras you want to exclude from the conguration. Click Continue to proceed.
NOTE:
1. The maximum recording bandwidth is 64Mbps. When cameras are recruited into the conguration, their stream 1 is used as the recording stream.
The resolution and fps (frame rate per second) of stream 1 may vary depending on the
specications of different cameras.
2. If there are more than 8 cameras in your local network, you will need to manually select cameras.
If there are less than 8 cameras, the Auto Setup will automatically move to the next
conguration step.

4. The system will automatically create volumes from the installed disk drives. The process will take several minutes.
5. An optional utility, EZConnect, is available through the Apple and Android App Stores. The EZConnect works with a server hosted by VIVOTEK for bridging and tunneling video requests between client devices and network cameras/CMS/NVR. The utility simplies and facilitates network conguration for access across the Internet.
The prerequisites for using the EZConnect are as follows:
1. Download and install the EZConnect utility to your cell phone.
2. Both the NVR and your cell phone have access to the Internet.
With this utility, you do not need to congure IP port forwarding on router or set up a DDNS
address for the NVR. You do not even need to know the IP address of the NVR. The EZConnect utility automatically manages the network parameters required for making the connection. The EZConnect comes with viewing and playback interfaces very similar to those in the iViewer utility.
To connect the NVR from a cell phone using the EZConnect: 5-1. Click on the EZConnect button on the wizard.

To power up and power down, On the initial conguration:
1. Connect the power adapter between the system and power outlet.
2. Turn on the system by pressing the power button for more than one second.
After the initial connection,
1. Press the power button for 1 second to power on.
2. Press the power button for 4 second to power down. the system should start ushing the cached contents in system memory and gracefully shut down.
1. No storage system is completely fail-safe. Damage to data might occur due to le system corruption, operating system malfunction, virus infection, HDD component failures, and so on. Therefore, it is highly recommended to regularly back up your data, and VIVOTEK disclaims responsibilities of data loss or recovery.
2. Always power off the system using the power button. Do not disconnect the power cord while the system is still operating. Doing so will result in data inconsistencies. The normal power-off procedure allows cached data to be written to disks.

Power Up and Power Down

WARNING:
NOTE:
If system buzzer is sounded, move your mouse cursor to reveal the main screen portal, and then click on the Stop buzzer button.
Serious system faults, such as a missing volume, can trigger the system buzzer. Verify the cause of system fault and turn off the buzzer.
