Installation 
This section describes how to install the DVR unit. 
Installation environment 
When installing your product, consider these factors: 
•  Ventilation 
•  Temperature 
•  Moisture 
•  Chassis load 
Ventilation: Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the 
manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure that the location planned for the installation 
of the unit is well ventilated. 
Temperature: Consider the unit’s operating temperature (-10 to +55 ºC, 14 to 
131 °F) and noncondensing humidity specifications (10 to 90%) before choosing 
an installation location. Extremes of heat or cold beyond the specified operating 
temperature limits may reduce the life expectancy of the DVR. Do not install the 
unit on top of other hot equipment. Leave 44 mm (1.75 in.) of space between 
rack-mounted DVR units. 
Moisture: Do not use the unit near water. Moisture can damage the internal 
components. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to 
rain or moisture. 
Chassis: Equipment weighing less than 15.9 kg (35 lb.) may be placed on top of 
the unit. 
Unpacking the DVR and its accessories 
When you receive the product, check the package and contents for damage, and 
verify that all items are included. There is an item list included in the package. If 
any of the items are damaged or missing, please contact your local supplier.
