Mounting
There are two types of mounting, depending on the model, either desktop (tower) or rack.
Desktop
The desk or table must provide a surface of suitable strength for the unit’s weight. In addition, there must be
area left around the cabinet to provide suitable airflow for cooling. Do not place heavy items on the cover.
Rack
The rack-mount model is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch (483 mm) wide vertical rack. A rail
bracket kit is included to provide extra support for the unit when it is installed into the rack.
There are two adjustable rail brackets (right and left) provided. Adjust the length of the brackets so they can
be secured to the front (1 screw) and rear (2 screws) on each side of the rack cage with hardware appropriate
for the rack.
Slide the NVR/WS into the rack on the brackets and secure with two screws on each side through the rack-
mounting ears.
Note
It is recommended that at least 1 RU of space [1.75 in. (44.45 mm)] be left in between multiple recorders
mounted in the same rack for cooling purposes.
Warning
Failure to leave space for cooling between recorders may result in malfunctioning and possible failure of the
unit.
After the VN-NVR or Workstation is permanently mounted, the connections are made. Refer to Rear Panel
diagram as needed.
Important Notes
The connection of external hardware may require simple hand tools. Do not apply power or plug-in
the unit to any outlet until instructed to do so.
Disable the AC power to prevent installer injury and damage to the unit.
Before beginning the hardware installation, ensure that the following environmental conditions have
been met:
The surface on which the NVR/WS hardware is to be placed must be level.
The room or area designated for the NVR/WS hardware installation must be well ventilated.
Make the following connections to the NVR/WS:
Note
A mouse and keyboard are required for setup.
Position the monitor(s) in a permanent fixed location. Connect the monitor to the appropriate
connector, DVI or HDMI (a DVI-VGA adapter can be used if required).
Insert one side of a standard LAN cable to the Network Port’s RJ-45 connector. Insert the other RJ-45
connector into the LAN side of the network.
Insert the connector of the provided power supply into the NVR/WS’s power receptacle. Do not
connect the remaining end to a power receptacle until instructed.
Connect the monitor(s) to the power source and switch on.
To ensure that the NVR/WS is protected during a power failure and that no important data is lost, it must be
connected to an uninterruptible power source (UPS) before use.
Connect the NVR/WS's power supply to the UPS power receptacle.
Connect the UPS power cord to the wall outlet.
Power on the UPS and ensure that it is working properly.
Power on the NVR/WS.
