Analog Cameras
Honeywell recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for the NVR unit, the
camera network switch, and the cameras to ensure that the NVR can continue to record
video during a power outage or during transient power events. If you need to monitor
video during a power outage, consider a UPS for the monitor as well.
Before powering up the NVR, turn on camera(s) and other devices — such as a network
switch or router — connected to the NVR.
Press the power button on the front of the NVR.
Reset switch
After powering on the unit, you are prompted to log on. The Default user is user name:
