SAFETY TIPS
1 Set
1. Make sure the cameras and the monitors are properly connected to the NVR.
2. The NVR should be placed in a dust and moisture free environment. It must never be directly exposed
to sunlight. Server room temperature is highly recommended to reduce the chance of overheating,
which may cause the NVR to become unstable.
3. During the boot up process, the NVR should not be interrupted by pressing any buttons on the mouse.
Do not unplug the power adapter or turn the NVR off during the boot up process.
4. A UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) is highly recommended to prevent damage to the NVR during
a power outage.
NOTE:
1. HD Monitor output and VGA output cannot be used at the same time for dual monitoring.
2. When using the TV output, the NVR's menu will not be accessible.

ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C). To prevent airflow restriction, allow at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance
around the ventilation openings.
