eSATA Port
An eSATA port is provided to connect external storage devices for recording or archiving video. Connect
the external eSATA hard disk drive (RAID) cable to the eSATA port.
CAUTION: Do NOT connect or disconnect eSATA devices while the DVR power is on. The DVR must
be powered down to connect or disconnect eSATA devices. Power up eSATA devices
so they are ready for operation before powering up the DVR. Power down eSATA devices
after powering down the DVR and then disconnect eSATA devices.
Factory Reset Switch
The DVR has a Factory Reset switch to the left of the HDMI connector on the rear panel. This
switch will only be used on the rare occasions that you want to return all the settings to the original
factory settings.
CAUTION: When using the Factory Reset, you will lose any settings you have saved.
To reset the unit, you will need a straightened paperclip:
1. Turn the DVR off.
2. Turn it on again.
3. Poke the straightened paperclip into the unlabeled hole to the left of the HDMI connector.
4. Hold the reset switch until the DVR's internal buzzer sounds twice.
5. Release the reset switch. All of the DVR's settings are now at the original settings it had when it left the factory.
Video Out
NOTE: Connect the monitor before the DVR boots so that video can be displayed on the monitor with the resolution
you have set during system setup. If you want to use both the HDMI and VGA Monitor connectors, one
of the monitors should be connected before the DVR boots, and the other monitor should be connected
after the DVR boots.
Network Port
The DVR can be networked using the 10Mb/100Mb/1Gb Ethernet connector. Connect a Cat5e cable with
an RJ-45 jack to the DVR connector. The DVR can be networked with a computer for remote monitoring,
searching, configuration and software upgrades. See Chapter 3 ─ Configuration for configuring the
Ethernet connections.
CAUTION: The network connector is not designed to be connected directly with cable or wire
intended for outdoor use.
