Before the DVR is powered on, make sure you have installed a hard disk and connected at least one camera.
For details, please refer to the following sections.
Note: The DVR is designed to automatically detect the video system of the connected cameras (NTSC
or PAL). To make sure the system detection is correct, please check if the cameras are
connected to the DVR and power-supplied before the DVR is powered on.

3.1 SATA HDD Installation

A SATA hard disk must be installed before the DVR is powered on.
Note: It's recommended to clear all data in the hard disk when the DVR is powered on and the date &
time are set correctly to ensure the recorded data are not mixed with other data previously saved
in the same hard disk. For details, please refer to "3.6 Clear Hard Disk" at page 10.

the right picture.
2-1 To install on the first bracket
Remove the bracket, and align the screw holes of the bracket
with the hard disk's screw holes. Make sure the PCB side of

connector and data bus connector to the hard disk. Then,
replace the bracket to DVR.

Connect the power connector and data bus connector to the
hard disk.
When connecting the power cable, make sure the cable is
passed through the power cable of DVD writer if your DVR is

power cable from interfering with the fan spinning.

screw holes. Make sure the PCB side of the hard disk is
facing up. Then, fasten the hard disk to the bracket.
