Making connections
Before turning on the VCR is necessary to arrange the connections with the peripheral units which we explain below.
•Connect HD-SDI cameras
The cameras are connected to the BNC Video IN. DS-N4 is not suitable for connecting analog or web cameras on the contrary, it is
absolutely not able to play, but is designed to handle HD-SDI cameras in Full HD 1080p resolution. These cameras can be connected
with the same RG59 coaxial cable and BNC connectors that are used for analog cameras. But we must pay attention to the fact that the
HD-SDI signal is much more delicate analog video and requires high-quality coaxial cables

INSTALLATION MANUAL

to be conducted effectively. It is recommended to use RG59 coaxial cable or higher and not minicoassiali or coaxial cables. The cable
must have full copper core, non-copper-plated steel and the largest possible cross section: in the case of RG59 the recommended
section of the center conductor is at least 0.81 mm as our CV-RG59 model. It is recommended not to exceed 100 m in length in the
video wiring and not to make joints or branches. A poor quality wiring or too long will result in the inability of the DVR to play the camera
images.
•Connect the main monitor
DS-N4 allows you to connect directly to different types of monitors.
The recommended monitor is a common computer monitor in 16: 9 to be connected to the VGA video at the back of the DVR. The DVR
also is capable of supporting the monitor in other proportions. Alternatively, or in addition, it is possible to connect a TV via the HDMI
port. In both options it comes to video outputs in high resolution FullHD able to make good the image quality of the HD-SDI cameras.
'Also available analog video output BNC to link a traditional CCTV monitor or external video input of a TV. But this is a video output in
analog resolution, far below earlier and therefore to be used only for service purposes, or where it is necessary to bring a great distance
from the DVR monitor. Without monitor the DVR can function being accessible from remote devices, but it is not possible to locally
control their functions and programming.
•hard disk installation
Because the DVR is capable of recording, you need to install the hard drive inside the equipment. The DVR is supplied without a hard
disk, so the first necessary step is the install disk.
DS-N4 can accommodate 1 or 2 hard drives inside of SATA type and a maximum capacity of 3000 GB. Proceed with the installation of
the hard disk as follows:
1. Turn off the appliance open the VCR by removing the top cap 1. Turn off the appliance open the VCR by removing the top cap
unscrewing the lateral fixing screws.
2. Attach the hard disk unit in its seat by means of the fastening screws. 2. Attach the hard disk unit in its seat by means of the fastening screws.
3. Connect the red SATA cable for data and power cable between hard drive and motherboard.
4. Close the device with the lid by screwing the screws. 4. Close the device with the lid by screwing the screws.

•feeder Connection
Connect the power supply 220VAC / 12VDC supplied to the rear connector 12VDC
3.2 Other connections
•Audio Input (AUDIO IN)
Camera equipped with separate microphone or microphones can be connected to the VCR through the AUDIO IN inputs. The inputs
support standard analog audio 2Vp-p 600 Ohm. Use microphones active type.
•Audio output (AUDIO OUT)
You can connect speakers, headphones or other external audio equipment such as a TV audio inputs and monitor. This way you can
hear the sound from the microphone inputs and during playback.
•LINE audio input (LINE IN)
You can connect external equipment to be able to spread the audio signal through the speaker output of the DVR
•LAN
The connection to the VCR network takes place via the outlet of the rear RJ45 network. Before using the LAN connection set network
parameters in the DVR setup menu.
•USB 2.0
E 'can use USB 2.0 devices to save audio / video recordings The devices connect to the VCR through the appropriate front USB port.
You can connect USB flash drives, USB Hard Disk and DVD burners.
•MOUSE USB
A second USB port is provided to connect the supplied mouse. The control with the mouse is much easier and faster than by keyboard
or remote control and for this reason in this manual will generally rifermento to commands with the mouse.
•Alarm inputs
Terminals 1-4 on terminal block - allow to connect external alarm sensors which can enable logging and generate alarm actions. The
sensors must be connected between the alarm contact (1 ... 4) and the ground terminal GND present in the terminal. To ensure the
sabotage immunity, the input of alarm is not sufficient to connect a simple contact, but should be applied between the two terminals a
voltage of 12VDC. In programming it is possible to define whether to consider the presence of voltage alarm (HIGH LEVEL) or absence of
voltage (LOW LEVEL).

•Alarm output
The DVR feature 1 relay alarm output for external alarm devices which can be activated following the alarm events detected by the DVR.
In this case the output is a clean contact Normally Closed consists of 2 terminals denominated NO1 and COM1. The contact is closed in
normal condition and opens itself expected to be activated in the configuration of the alarm condition.
•PTZ Cameras
The VCR is capable of controlling motorized cameras speed dome via a serial line that is able to operate on the RS422 and RS485
standard. The BUS RS422 / 485 part by RS422TX + RS422TX- terminals of the video recorder to be connected respectively to the
RS485 terminals A and B of the cameras according to the directions provided by the manufacturer of the camera (some cameras
reported +/- instead of A / B). The communication settings (protocol, speed, etc. of the bus) is operating in the DVR configuration menu
and must be consistent with the commands accepted by the cameras used. The DR series DVR support PelcoD protocol used by DSE
speed dome cameras, and various other protocols from other manufacturers.
