Basic System Setup

4.1 STEP 1: Connect cameras

Test your cameras prior to selecting a permanent mounting location by connecting the cameras
and cables to your recorder locally. Push and twist the BNC connector clockwise to secure it to
the BNC port.
NOTE
This step is for verification of the camera image only. It is recommended to connect cameras to a nearby power
adapter for this step. The Lorex Setup Wizard that runs at startup will assist you in naming and organizing your
cameras, so it is also recommended to leave cameras connected until the wizard asks you to install cameras in
their permanent mounting location.
NOTE
Before selecting a permanent mounting location for your cameras, see 5 Camera Installation, page 10 for im-
portant notes and installation tips.
The extension cable must be a single stretch of cable between the recorder and camera. You cannot connect
multiple extension cables to each other.

4.2 STEP 2: Connect router

Connect the recorder to your router using the included Ethernet cable.
NOTE
To receive automatic firmware updates and enable remote viewing with mobile apps, a high speed Internet con-
nection is required (minimum upload speed of 3.5Mbps for remote viewing). All other system features can be
used without an Internet connection.

4.3 STEP 3: Connect mouse

Connect the included mouse to a USB port on the recorder.
