When you first press a button on the remote
control or click a button on the mouse, the
DVR may ask you to LOGIN.
To get full functionality of the DVR, enter the username admin and leave the password
field blank. To change the admin password, alter user priviledges or change whether
the DVR requires a secure login or not, see “User Setup Menu” on page 54.
The default mode of the DVR is live-viewing mode. This is the mode which monitors
the images coming from your cameras in real-time, and allows you to configure your
recording and channel options. The DVR automatically starts in live-viewing mode,
with multi-view enabled.
The first thing you’ll probably open is the pop-up menu. To access the pop-up
context menu, right-click anywhere on the live-viewing screen, or press the MENU
/ ESC button on the remote control. The pop-up menu lets you quickly access the
