Step 1. Install the NVR and monitor

For the following steps, refer to the back panel photo above for the location of connectors.
1. Place the NVR in a location that is secure, well ventilated and clean. The NVR should be positioned such that the back panel connectors
are accessible and the ventilation holes on the sides and top and the fan outlet on the back are not blocked.
2. Install and setup your monitor in accordance with the instructions provided with the monitor. Do not power it on at this time.
3. Cable the HDMI or VGA connector to your monitor's VGA or HDMI input. The HDMI interface provides the best performance.
4. Plug the mouse into the USB connector on the front or back of the NVR.
5. To access your NVR remotely, or configure your NVR to transmit alerts, email, etc. to external servers, plug a drop cable from your local
area network (LAN) into the RJ45 LAN connector on the back of the NVR.
6. Connect the power cord to the power connector on the back panel of the NVR, and then into a UPS (preferred) or surge protector.
NOTE
Do not power on the NVR at this time.

Step 2. Install cameras

The camera channel (RJ45) connectors on the back of the NVR support 3SVision brand IP cameras only. If the cameras you attach to the back
panel were used on another system, they should first be reset to the factory default configuration before connecting them to the NVR. These
cameras can be automatically added to and configured by the NVR system when the NVR is configured.
To prepare your cameras for use with the NVR, do the following:
1. Install your 3SVision IP cameras as needed to support your security requirements. Always refer to the documentation provided with
the camera for installation instructions.
2. Connect an Ethernet drop cable between each camera and an RJ45 camera channel connector on the back of the NVR.
3. Apply power to the cameras and allow at least 3 minutes for them to fully initialize.
