CHAPTER 3 BASIC OPERATION
Once you have logged in, the DVR will display one or more camera channels in Live View.
How many channels are displayed will depend on how many cameras you have connected as
well as what multi-view mode you have chosen.
After a period of inactivity – configurable in the General Setting submenu described in
Section 4.3 – the DVR will log users out. This will require the current user to re-enter their
password.
MAIN MENU
After logging in, you can view – and access - the DVR’s functions through the Main Menu.
IMPORTANT! It is highly recommended that you change your system
password after you log on for the first time. Record your changes and keep
that information stored securely as the system will prevent access if the
incorrect login information is attempted three times within a 30-minute period.
If you find yourself locked out of the DVR because of this, wait 30 minutes,
reboot the DVR and attempt to log into it again.

AUTO RESUME
In the event of a power failure, the DVR will automatically save any video files it is currently
recording and will then resume scheduled operations once power is restored.
3.4 RECORDING
The DVR must be configured to record on a schedule, but you can start recording on any and
all channels using the Manual Recording option. For information on how to set recording
schedules and motion detection recording, please see Sections 3.6 and 3.7.
MANUAL RECORDING
This window allows you to override the scheduled recording times of selected cameras. You
can access the Record Menu via the Shortcut menu or by pushing the Record button on
the remote.
There are three status modes: Schedule, Manual and Stop. The status of each channel is
shown by the filled circle under its number. Each camera can only have one status at a time.
Changes take effect once the OK button is selected.
Manual – The selected cameras will begin
recording
Schedule – Cameras record based on your
settings made in the Schedule Menu or
Detect Menus (See Sections 3.6 and 3.7
respectively)
Stop – All selected cameras stop recording
You can assign the same values to all
cameras by selecting the desired status in the
“All” column.
