INSTALLATION
DVR PARTS AND DEFINITIONS
The Veo17 is built in a 1U chassis for convenient Rackmount installation. Follow safety
precautions when selecting an installation location for your Veo17 DVR.
1. If using the Rackmount option use existing screws from the chassis to secure the
provided Rackmount brackets to the Veo17 unit, then install the Veo17 DVR into the
server rack. Otherwise find a flat dry dust free surface to place the DVR on.
2. Make sure the Power switch is in the OFF position.
3. Plug the USB mouse into one of the two USB ports on the rear panel of the machine.
4. Plug in the monitor. Depending on the monitor model, use either the HDMI or the VGA
port on the back panel of the machine.
5. Connect the Analog cameras into the VIDEO IN BNC video ports #1-16. Note, that
i3-TVI cameras will have two coaxial cables: 720x480 (D1 quality) and 1MP/2MP
(780P/1080P quality). Make sure you connect the coaxial cable that transmits your
desired video quality.
6. Connect your video inputs PTZ signal cables (where applicable) to the RS-485 block
on the rear panel of the
DVR. Using a pointed
object, press and hold
the orange toggle
