 Product Overview

NVR Back Panel

Installation and Setup

Hard Drive InstallationThe NVR may not include HDD (Hard Disk Drive) depending on the kit you selected. This NVR works with most 3.5″ SATA HDD (supports up to 8TB).Note: Please skip this step if HDD is pre-installed in your NVR.

  1. Unplug your NVR from power, unscrew and remove the top cover.
  2. Connect the SATA power and data cables from the NVR to the corresponding ports on your HDD (as shown).
  3. Place the Hard Disk into the DVR. Arrange the wires neatly.
  4. Hold the HDD and the NVR steadily, gently turn it over and line up the holes on the HDD with the holes on the bottom of the NVR. Using a suitable screwdriver, screw the provided screws into the holes. Assemble back the cover.
  5. After installing a Hard Disk, you need to first format the Hard Disk before recording. Right-click the mouse > go to Main Menu > Disk Management > Select the Hard Disk > Click Format > Apply.Note: For a MicroSD card, simply insert the card into the allocated slot at the back of the NVR. The surveillance-certificated hard drive is recommended. Compared to HDD (which supports full-day recording), a MicroSD card is an economical alternative for light recording.NVR can only support one type of storage at one time.
