Using The Setup Wizard - Interlogix TruVision DVR 12 User Manual

Using the setup wizard

The TVR 12 has an express installation wizard that lets you easily configure
basic recorder settings when first used. It configures all cameras simultaneously.
The configuration can then be customized as required.
By default the setup wizard will start once the recorder has loaded. It will walk
you through some of the more important settings of your recorder.
Any changes you make to a setup configuration page are saved when you exit
the page and return to the main wizard page.
Note: If you want to set up the recorder with default settings only, click Next in
each screen until the end.
To quickly set up the recorder:
1. Connect all the devices required to the back panel of the recorder. See
Figure 1 on page 9.
2. Turn on the unit using the power switch on the front panel. After the boot up
screen, the recorder displays video images on screen.
3. Select the preferred language for the system from the dropdown list and then
click Next.
4. Enable or disable the option to start the wizard automatically when the
recorder is turned on. Click Next.
5. Administrator configuration:
Navigate to the Admin Password edit box and click the edit box with the
mouse, or press Enter on the front panel or remote control, to display the
virtual keyboard. Enter the default admin password, 1234.
Note: You must enter an admin password. To change the Admin password,
check New Admin password
Caution: It is strongly recommended that you change the password of the
administrator. Do not leave 1234 as the default password. Write it down in a
safe place so that you do not forget it.
If you should forget the password to your recorder, contact your supplier with
the serial number of your recorder to obtain a secure code to reset it.
Click Next.
6. Time and date configuration:
Select the desired time zone, date format, system time, and system date.
Note: Daylight saving time (DST) cannot be configured from the Wizard. See
"Configuring time and date" on page 74 for more information on DST.

and enter the new password and confirm it.
