Starting Up and Shutting Down the NVR

Purpose
Proper startup and shutdown procedures are crucial to expanding the life of the NVR.
Before You Start
Check that the voltage of the external power supply is the same with the NVR's requirement and the
ground connection is working properly.
Starting up the NVR
1. Check that the power supply is plugged into an electrical outlet. It is highly recommended that an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) be used in conjunction with the device. The Power indicator LED on
the front panel should be red, indicating the device gets the power supply.
2. Press the Power button on the front panel. The Power indicator LED should turn blue, indicating that
the unit is starting.
3. After startup, the Power indicator LED remains blue. A splash screen with the status of the HDD
appears on the monitor. The row of icons at the bottom of the screen shows the HDD status. 'X' means
that the HDD is not installed or cannot be detected.
