Choose something that you'll remember, but that others would be unlikely to guess.

12345. Don't enter what you'd like the password to be

New Admin Password (check-box): When checked,
the NVR will accept a new password for the Admin

new password to be in the upper field, and then con-

Wizard: Time, Date, Location, Live View
It's important to ensure that your NVR has the correct
time and date, as well as the correct time zone set.
This is particularly true in a legal context when a mis-
taken time or date can mean the difference between
your security footage being regarded as legitimate
evidence or not!
Time Zone: Select your location from the list. The East
Coast of the United States is GMT -05:00 and the West
Coast is GMT -08:00. The UK is at GMT+ 00:00 and the
East Coast of Australia is at GMT +10:00.
Remember that these values will be displaced by an
hour during DST (daylight savings time) if that applies
in your locale. However, don't set that here - the NVR
supports automatically adjusting the time during DST
