Important Note: If you are using your own HDD, please set the jumper to SLAVE. Refer to the

instructions included with your HDD for more information. Depending on the
model purchased, an HDD may or may not be included.

3. Plug in the 12V DC power adapter into an AC outlet, and turn the power switch ON
4. When you start-up your DVR or DVR Combo the system will automatically detect the MASTER drive

only. For the system to detect both the MASTER and SLAVE, you will need to go into the MAIN MENU
CONTROL and select the HDD/REC SET and set the parameters to activate the HDD slave.
Note: These steps are outlined in the MAIN MENU CONTROL section of the DVR or DVR Combo’s

Owner’s Manual

When the MASTER HDD becomes FULL during recording, the SLAVE HDD becomes the active drive,
receiving the earliest recorded data from the MASTER HDD. Therefore, data is not lost, as it gets
transferred to the SLAVE HDD.
