Once the cables and adapters have been properly connected (See Chapter 2) it is time to turn on the power. To turn on 
the power follow these steps: 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

1)  Turn on the monitor and any external peripherals (ex. Printers, External Storage Devices, etc.) connected to the 

DVR unit.  

2)  Turn on the Secondary Power Switch located in the rear of the DVR unit (See Section 1.3). 
3)  Turn on the main power switch located on the front of the DVR unit as shown in Figure 3.1. 

The DVR will run a series of self-tests. After two or three minutes a series of messages may be displayed as the 
various hardware and software subsystems are activated. Under normal circumstances you should not be asked 
to respond to these messages. If you are asked to respond to the messages (adding a Printer, Monitor, etc for the 
first time) follow the instructions carefully.  
 
After this finishes, the Surveillix DVR software should load automatically and bring you to the main screen. 

 

 

 

1)  To turn off the DVR unit, select the Exit button from the main screen. This will prompt you whether you wish to exit 

the program or not. Select yes. The DVR unit will shut itself off automatically once this is done. The DVR unit may 
take several minutes to shut down completely.  

 

 

 

Always be sure to follow the proper procedures when turning off the power to the DVR unit. NEVER 

disconnect the power to the DVR unit while it is still running or in the process of shutting down. Doing so can cause data 
loss, file corruption, system instability and hardware failure.
