Default Video Output

The default video output for the DVR system is VGA. If you connect a BNC (CVBS)
monitor on initial setup, you will need to use the mouse “Scroll Wheel” to switch to
the BNC output to be able to use the mouse. Roll the mouse “Scroll Wheel” back-
ward to go to BNC and forward to go to VGA. The REMARK screen is shown on
startup.

Power On/Off

To power the system On/Off, connect the power cable to the DC 12V port on the rear
panel. At startup, the system performs a basic system check and runs an initial loading
sequence. After a few moments, the system loads a live display view.

The system can also be put into Standby Mode.
Power will remain to the system but will not be
recording. To start/stop Standby Mode:

1. Press and hold the POWER button on the

front panel or the STANDBY button on the
remote control until the prompt closes. The
system enters standby mode. You can also
enter Standby mode through the Quick
Access Menu. See next page.

2. To exit standby mode, press and hold the

POWER button on the front panel or remote
control until the system beeps. The system will begin powering up.
