IMPORTANT!
Before You Get Started
A: Gather Your Components.
You will need:
1. A 19" or larger VGA PC monitor and VGA cable OR a television of any size.
2. A surge protector
We STRONGLY recommend that you use one that has the following specifications:
• UL-1449 Rated
• Clamping voltage of 330 or lower
• Joule rating of at least 400
• Response time of 10 nanoseconds or less
3. A power screw driver/drill and bubble level to mount your cameras and power distribution
panel - if included.
Your DVR can be controlled using the included USB mouse, remote control or the function keys on the front of the unit. For the purposes of this guide, we will be giving instructions using the mouse. Because this
guide covers several models in the QT series of DVRs, components in photos may not exactly match those on your particular mode.
