good air circulation and away from heat sources to ensure stability and life of the DVR.

are functional. Why?
A: Operate again by aiming the remote controller at the IR receiver on front panel. If it still
doesn't work, please check if the batteries in the remote controller are dying. If not, check if
the remote controller is broken.

A: All HDDs supported by the system can be used. But remember, once DVR runs, the data
on your HDD will be lost.

all the records, you can format HDD.

adjusted. Try a few times and restart. If it still doesn't work, check if the HDD is broken.
11. Q: Why DVR cannot control PTZ?
A: Please check if:
1. PTZ in the front side is malfunctioned.
2. Setting, connection and installation of PTZ decoder are not correct.
3. PTZ setting of DVR is not correct.
4. Protocol of PTZ decoder does not match that of DVR.
5. Address of PTZ decoder does not match that of DVR.
6. If many decoders are connected, the farthest side of AB line of PTZ decoder should be
added 120Ω resistance to realize reflection suppression and impedance matching.
Otherwise, PTZ control will be unstable.
