Sequence Button
Arrow Buttons
The front panel looks and operates much like a VCR combined with a multiplexer. The following describes each button
and control. Take a few minutes to review the descriptions. You will use these to initially set up your DVR and for
daily operations.
NOTE: The infrared sensor on the DVR is just to the left of the arrow buttons. Make certain that nothing blocks
the sensor, or the remote control will not function properly.
When you use wireless communication devices (such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) near the DVR, the remote
control might not function properly.
You can also use a USB mouse (not supplied) to navigate through the screens and menus much like
you would on a computer.
Power LED
The POWER LED is lit when the unit is On.
HDD LED
The HDD LED flickers when the DVR is recording or searching video on the hard disk drive.
Camera Buttons
Pressing the individual camera buttons will cause the selected camera to display full screen. Buttons 1 to 9 are also
used to enter passwords.
NOTE: When selecting camera channels 10 to 16, press the 10+ and then 0 to 6.
In the PTZ mode, pressing the button 1 zooms in the screen and the button 4 zooms out the screen, pressing the button
2 focuses near and button 5 focuses far, and pressing the button 3 moves to the preset and button 6 saves the preset.
