Basic System Setup

Test your cameras prior to selecting a permanent mounting location by connecting the cameras

and cables to your recorder locally. Push and twist the BNC connector clockwise to secure it to

the BNC port.

NOTE

This step is for verification of the camera image only. It is recommended to connect cameras to a nearby power

adapter for this step. The Lorex Setup Wizard that runs at startup will assist you in naming and organizing your

cameras, so it is also recommended to leave cameras connected until the wizard asks you to install cameras in their

permanent mounting location.

NOTE

•

Before selecting a permanent mounting location for your cameras, see 5 Camera Installation, page 11 for im-

portant notes and installation tips.

•

The extension cable must be a single stretch of cable between the recorder and camera. You cannot connect

multiple extension cables to each other.

Connect the recorder to your router using the included Ethernet cable.

NOTE

To receive automatic firmware updates and enable remote viewing with mobile apps, a high speed Internet connec-

tion is required (minimum upload speed of 3.5Mbps for remote viewing). All other system features can be used

without an Internet connection.

Connect the included mouse to a USB port on the recorder.
