One of the most important things to decide early on is where you're going to install
the DVR. There are several considerations to make, and some of them conflict with
one another.
•
Your DVR needs to be located in a central location to allow you maximum options
when placing your cameras. This is true whether your cameras are connected
via cables or wirelessly - one way, you'll have to physically install cabling, and
wireless systems still have a limited range.
•
On the other hand, your DVR should be installed somewhere secure. If the DVR is
too accessible it could be sabotaged or removed by an intruder.
•
Ideally, assuming that you wish to use most features this DVR offers, it should be
installed close to a network access point. There is, however, no problem using a
long network cable - a Cat 5e Ethernet cable up to approximately three hundred
feet (about 90m) should work. Different network cable standards will offer a
longer or shorter range.
• We strongly recommend you use a USB mouse (one is included) for setup
and operation of the DVR.
• Your DVR is like a small, keyboardless computer and like most computers,
the fastest and easiest method for navigating through the menus and
their various options is with the mouse.
• Your remote control is ideal for those times your DVR is out of arms reach.
