TURNING ON THE DVR

Once the cables have been properly connected (see Chapter 2 – Controls and
Connections), it is time to turn on the power.
1. Turn on the monitor and any external peripherals (ex. Printers, External Storage
Devices, etc.) connected to the DVR unit.
2. Turn on the main power switch located on the front of the DVR unit as shown
below. (See Section 2.2 – Front Panel Controls for location of the main power
switch.)
The DVR will run a series of self-tests. After two or three minutes, a series of
messages may be displayed as the various hardware and software subsystems are
activated. Under normal circumstances you should not be asked to respond to these
messages. If you are asked to respond to the messages (adding a Printer, Monitor,
etc., for the first time) follow the instructions carefully.

TURNING OFF THE DVR

1. Select the Exit button from the main screen. (Refer to Section 4.3 – Display
Screen for location of Exit button.) This will prompt you whether you wish to exit
the program or not.
2. Select Yes. The DVR unit will shut itself off automatically once this is done.
The DVR unit may take several minutes to shut down completely
CAUTION: Always be sure to follow the proper procedures when
turning off the power to the DVR unit. NEVER disconnect the power to
the DVR unit while it is still running or in the process of shutting down.
Doing so can cause data loss, file corruption, system instability and
hardware failure.
