POWER OFF
The DVR will power down to a standby
mode when the POWER button on the
remote control is pressed, or when the
SYSTEM SHUT DOWN icon is selected
from within the MENU. In both cases, the
SHUT DOWN window will appear and users
must select OK to confirm. The hard drive
will stop spinning and the system will shut
down. For extended periods of inactivity, it is
recommended that the DVR be disconnected
from power either by turning off the power at
the surge protector or unplugging the device.

IMPORTANT! If you are logging into the DVR for the first time, it is essential
that you set your DVR to the proper date and time at this point. Doing so
will allow you to search for events based on when they occurred as well as
avoiding complications by having multiple recorded files with the same date and time if you
wait to make those settings. Complete instructions can be found in Section 4.1 Basic
Configuration.
STEP 4. The Login screen will appear.
Enter the User Name and Password,
admin and 123456 respectively
using the Virtual Keyboard described
in the last chapter. Click ENTER
on the keyboard. You can change
the password later as described in
Section 4.6 User Management.
You are now logged in.
