HDD INSTALLATION
Note for Hard Disk Drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of equipment. Please follow the guidelines below when using the DVR to protect against possible HDD failure.
We recommend that you back up your important recordings onto an external backup device in order to prevent accidental loss.
Make sure that the power is turned OFF when attaching or removing the HDD.
- Do not move the DVR while the power is on. - Do not use the DVR in excessively hot or humid places, or in places that may be subject to sudden changes in temperature. Sudden changes in temperature can cause condensation to form inside the DVR. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
- While the DVR is switched on, do not unplug from the wall socket or switch the electricity off from the breaker switch.
- If there's a power failure while the DVR is on there is a chance that some data on the HDD will be lost.
- Do not drop the HDD. Also do not put the metallic object such as coins or screwdrivers into the HDD tray.
- When a power failure occurs during recording, avoid adding, replacing or transporting the HDD as the recorded data may be erased. In this case, turn the power back on to boot up the unit normally with the HDD that was being used at the time of the power failure attached. Then add, replace, or transport the HDD.
- The HDD is very delicate. Handle the HDD with care and follow the precautions below because even a small shock may damage the internal components of the HDD.
- Do not place the HDD on a desk or a table directly. Put a thick cushion under the HDD because even a small shock may damage the internal components of the HDD.

If you set to ON, the [IP Address], [Subnet Mask], [Gateway], [Primary DNS] and [Secondary DNS] options are not set.
-
OFF: Enter the network settings manually.
-
IP Address: Enter an IP address using the virtual keyboard.
- Subnet Mask: Enter a subnet mask address using the virtual keyboard.
- Gateway: Enter the gateway address using the virtual keyboard.
