3:32 PM Getting Started Precautions for Proper Use of this Product Locations of Storage and Use 䢇 Do not store the unit at the following places. Doing so may cause the unit to malfunction or break down. ● Hot or cold places beyond the allowable operating temperature (5 I to 40 I) ● Humid places beyond the allowable operating humidity (30%RH to 80%RH) (no condensation) ● Places that emit a strong magnetic field, such as near transformers and motors ● Places near devices that emit radio waves, such as transceivers and mobile phones ● Places with considerable dust and sand ● Places with strong vibrations ● Places where water droplets may be formed, such as window sides ● Places with considerable vapor and oil, such as kitchens ● Places that emit radiation, X-rays, and corrosive gases 䢇 Using this unit and the cable that is connected to it near places where strong radio waves or magnetic fields (such as near radios, TVs, transformers, and monitors) are emitted may cause noises in the video images or color changes. Handling Precautions 䢇 Do not stack the devices on one another during use. Heat and noise from the devices may cause the unit to malfunction or break down, and lead to fire. 䢇 Do not block the ventilation holes. Doing so may cause heat to trap inside the unit and result in fire. Do not use this unit by laying it down sideways, upside down, or at an angle. 䢇 Do not place objects on this unit. Placing heavy objects, such as TV monitors, or objects that are bigger in size on this unit may cause it to lose balance and drop or fall, hence resulting in injuries. 䢇 Do not stand or sit on this unit. Doing so may cause this unit to fall or break down, and result in injuries. Keep it out of the reach of young children. 䢇 Do not place objects with water (e.g., vases, flower pots, cups, cosmetic products, and chemicals) on this unit. Water may enter this unit and result in fire or electric shock. 䢇 Do not insert objects into this unit. Metallic or other flammable objects that enter this unit from the ventilation holes may result in fire or electric shock. 6 Precautions for Handling Hard Disk Drive 䢇 The distance between the head and the disk is only about 0.02 μm when the hard disk (henceforth HDD) is reading the data. Vibration or impact that is exerted on the HDD may therefore cause the head to hit against the disk, hence causing the disk surface to dent or the disk to chip. When this occurs, data may not be properly read, or in a worse scenario, continued use in this condition may result in head crash (damage). Careful attention must therefore be paid when handling it. 䢇 Precautions During Installation and Change of Installation Location Moving of this unit or installation work is strictly prohibited when the power of this unit is on or immediately after the power is turned off (approximately 1 minute). (The HDD continues to move under its own inertia for some time after the power is disconnected, and exertion of vibration or impact during this interval may result in HDD failure.) When moving this unit, wrap it using cushioning materials to protect it from external shock. 䢇 Handling Precautions ● Handle this unit carefully without exerting vibration or impact on it. ● Do not remove the power plug during recording or playback, or when the HDD is being accessed. ● The HDD is a consumable product. Perform maintenance after it has been used for about 10,000 hours (about 1 year). (This value is based on its use in an environment with a temperature of 25 I, and may vary according to the environment of use.) For inquiries on maintenance plans and expenses, consult your nearest JVC dealer listed on the separate sheet. 䢇 When installing an external hard disk, we recommend the use of UPS (uninterruptible power supply) to ensure the stable operation of the system. [Connecting a UPS] (A Page 112) 䢇 Power failure that occurs during formatting or disconnection of the HDD may affect its subsequent use even when the UPS is connected. 䢇 JVC shall not be held responsible for the compensation of losses incurred in the event that recording or playback fails due to defects in this unit or its hard disk drive. ● Images recorded on the HDD will be deleted when you replace it with a new disk. Note also that recorded images may be deleted when you upgrade the software for this unit. VR-N1600_J.book Page 7 Wednesday, August 8, 2007 3:32 PM Precautions when Moving this Unit Others 䢇 Remove all connected cords before moving Turn off the power and remove the power plug before moving this unit. Failure to do so may cause damage on the cords, and result in fire or electric shock. 䢇 Moving of this unit or installation work is strictly prohibited when the power of this unit is on or immediately after the power is turned off (approximately 1 minute). The HDD continues to move under its own inertia for some time after the power is disconnected, and exertion of vibration or impact during this interval may result in HDD failure. 䢇 When moving this unit, wrap it using cushioning materials to protect it from external shock. 䢇 Handle this unit carefully without exerting vibration or impact on it. 䢇 When there is variation in the supply voltage such as during lightning, operation of this unit may be disabled to protect the system until the supply voltage stabilizes again. 䢇 Eliminate static electricity before performing work that requires you to touch the input/output terminals, such as when installing devices. 䢇 Do not touch the rear panel of this unit when it is running as static electricity may cause it to malfunction. 䢇 When there is a large number of data recorded on this unit, such as short alarm records, a longer time may be required during search or backup. This is not a malfunction. 䢇 Data recorded from TV broadcasts or video (audio) recordings shall only be restricted to personal uses, and their use without the prior consent of the copyright holder is strictly prohibited under the copyright law. 䢇 The width of the border lines (black in color) of images on the split screen varies according to the type of input signals. This is due to the characteristics of the camera’s input signals, and is not a malfunction. The condition may also be improved by adjusting this unit. For details, consult your nearest JVC dealer. 䢇 This unit comes with a high-precision hard disk device. Be careful not to exert vibration or impact on this unit when handling it. 䢇 Exertion of vibration or impact particularly when the power is on or when the hard disk is being accessed may cause this unit to break down. 䢇 When moving this unit, do so about 1 minute after disconnecting the power supply. 䢇 Do not turn off the power switch at the rear of this unit or unplug the power cord during recording or playback, or when the hard disk is being accessed. Otherwise, it may break down. Precautions for Handling Power Cords 䢇 Do not use the supplied cords on devices other than this unit. 䢇 Do not place heavy objects on the power cord, or place it under this unit Doing so may cause damage on the cords, and result in fire or electric shock. 䢇 Do not use cords other than those supplied with this unit Use only power cords supplied together with this unit. Using cords with different withstanding voltage specifications or damaged cords may result in fire or electric shock. 䢇 Do not remove the power plug during recording or playback, or when the HDD is being accessed. Maintenance 䢇 Turn off the power before performing maintenance of this unit. 䢇 Wipe this unit using a soft cloth. Wiping using thinner or benzene may cause the surface to melt or fog. When the surface is extremely dirty, wipe using a cloth that is dipped into a neutral detergent diluted with water, followed by wiping with a dry cloth. When this device is used as a general household, there is a possibility of radio disturbance to the radio and television receiver etc. Energy Conservation 䢇 Turn off the power of the system for safety reasons and to save energy if this unit is not to be used for a long time. Copyright 䢇 Use of video or audio sound recorded using this unit for commercial purposes or playing them for public viewing or listening may be an infringement of the copyrights of their respective authors under the copyright law. 䢇 These video (audio) recordings shall only be restricted to personal uses, and their use without prior consent of the copyright holder is strictly prohibited under the copyright law. 7 VR-N1600_J.book Page 8 Wednesday, August 8, 2007 3:32 PM Getting Started Part Names and Functions Front S T R Q WARNING A B LIVE/BROWSE 㧝 㧞 㧟 㧠 SELECT 㧡 㧢*1/' 㧣 㧤 PTZ/PRESET 㧥 ALARM OPERATE REV FWD O LOCK REC CONTROL FUNCTION SERIAL CANCEL ZOOM OUT ZOOM IN ENTER P HDD SEARCH KEY ALARM CLEAR REC/STOP STOP(PB) PLAY SKIP CD E F GHIJ K L M A [OPERATE] Button/Indicator Switches operation on or off.

Devices have their own IP addresses and host names. The system identifies the devices based on their IP address or host name. Memo : ● Even though each device is managed using a unique IP address or host name, in cases such as when multiple analog cameras are connected to a network encoder (IP video server), a multiple number of cameras may be connected to a single device and thus share the same IP address or host name. Although several cameras are connected to one device in this case, this unit manages the cameras on an individual basis. ● In addition to the network camera and network encoder (IP video server), you can also add a number of dedicated I/O (input/output) devices to the system. You can configure and use the event settings for the I/O devices in the same way as cameras. ● When a device is added to the system, it is listed on the [Camera Recording Administator] screen. To add a new device, follow the procedure below. Firstly, configure the IP address and password of the device according to instructions in the camera manual. ● You cannot add a camera for which there is user access restriction. For details on access restrictions, refer to the camera’s “Instruction Manual”. ● If the camera is registered with the user access restriction set to ON, the camera is registered with access restriction and unable to display live images unless the settings are changed. 1 Select [Camera Record Setting] from the main menu 2 Click [Add Device...] ● The [Device Setup Wizard] screen appears. 3 Enter the IP address or DNS host name that can be identified by the system ● To enter the DNS host name, select the [Use DNS host name] check box and click [Next].
