working. Please be pa-
tient as it can take a
moment for the wizard
to appear after turning
on your DVR.

The DST function allows you to configure your DVR to automatically ad-
just its time for Daylight Savings in your time zone. You can set when
daylight saving time starts and ends.
Enable DST: Click the checkbox if you would like the DVR to adjust the
time when Daylight Savings time begins.
From/To: Here you can define when Daylight Savings applies to your
location, so you’ll need to tell the DVR when it applies to you.
DST Bias: This refers to the difference in minutes, between Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC) and the local time. Select the time that DST has
increased by in your time zone.
The NTP (Network Time Protocol) function allows the DVR to automat-
ically sync its clock with an on-line server, which gives it the ability to
constantly have an accurate time setting. Obviously this is very impor-
tant for a security system and is enabled by default. We don’t recom-
mend changing any of the default settings.
• Click “Previous” to go back to the previous screen.
• Click “Next” to continue.
• Click “Exit” to exit the Setup Wizard.

General Configuration EN
Confused on which location to install your cameras? The cameras included with your security system can be
installed in a number of different locations. Camera location can depend on the following -
1. Distance from the camera to the DVR.
2. Environmental conditions.
3. Lighting conditions.
4. The area that you would like to monitor.
When you position cameras correctly, you can eliminate the need for additional cameras to cover your target
area and maximise the efficiency of your security system. On the flip side, if you position cameras incorrectly,
it can lead to blind spots or to have objects that are not visible or too far for the cameras to view in detail. Keep
these points in mind to get the most out of your security system.
Mount cameras at an elevated position - Mounting your cameras at an elevated position, can keep your cam-
eras out of range of vandals or would be burglars. It also allows your camera to have a high vantage point in-
creasing its viewing area.
Cover your target area - When placing cameras, make sure you provide ample coverage, but not in excess.
For example, if you are trying to cover a backyard gate, don’t zoom in to only have the gate in frame. Position
the camera to cover part of your backyard so you capture as much area as possible without sacrificing video
quality.
