DH4C Basic Conguration

Setting up the DVR

DVR Menu Access

You can congure the DVR with its local on-screen menus using a monitor and mouse, or through a Web browser on a

connected laptop. These settings can also be accessed remotely over a wireless network.

A - Local access with On-screen Display (OSD) menus:

Connect a portable monitor to the VIDEO OUT RCA jack on the DVR front panel and plug a mouse into the USB port to

work with conguration settings. For more information, see DH4C Administration: Accessing the On-screen Display.

To set or change a password, right-click in Live view, then choose the Conguration  System Password options.

B - Web browser access:

The DVR's built-in Web Server provides the same conguration options as the On-screen Display menus (with small

interface differences) as well as video search, playback, and archiving features. Logging in to the DVR with a Web

Browser requires the proper network conguration to establish a connection, and a browser extension to display the

user interface. For more information, nd the vMax Web User Guide on the Safe Fleet Community.

Plug an RJ-45 Ethernet cable into the back panel LAN port, or connect remotely over a network if you have Smart

Reach wireless access. Contact the Technical Support team for more information.

For information about passwords and permission levels, see "User Levels" on page 44.
