Overview & Setup

DVR Back

The back of the DVR has two 6-pin DTVLink® or IEEE 1394 ports and an A/C power cord connector.
Devices using IEEE 1394 interface can be connected to either port. Devices certified as DTVLink
use the same IEEE 1394 interface but also include advanced copy protection schemes to send and
receive encrypted or copy protected content.

Things to Consider Before You Connect

Ensure Proper Ventilation of the DVR:

• Leave at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between the top and back of the DVR and a wall,
shelf, or other component.
• Leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space on the front and sides.
• Do not block ventilation holes on any of the components.
• Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.
• Do not stack components on top of the DVR.
• When you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from
it won't flow around other components.
Note: The DVR uses an internal fan to ensure proper
cooling of the electrical circuits and the AV hard drive.
Upon startup, the fan will briefly run at 100% and then
quickly slow down to the minimal speed required to cool
the unit.
