You will need:
1. A 19” or larger VGA PC monitor and VGA cable OR a television of any size.

3. A power screw driver/drill and bubble level to mount your cameras and power distribution
panel - if included.
Your DVR can be controlled using the included USB mouse, remote control or the function keys on the front of the unit. For the purposes of this guide, we will be giving instructions using the mouse. Because this
guide covers several models in the QT series of DVRs, components in photos may not exactly match those on your particular mode.
