Remember: After making changes to the settings press/click the APPLY button.

AUTO MAINTAIN: When set to DISABLE, there won’t be any other options available

on this screen. Choose ENABLE if you want to set the AUTO REBOOT function.

AUTO REBOOT: Will automatically shut the DVR down and restart it at a certain time of the

day, week or month.

• Note that, if you chose monthly rebooting and you enter the 31st as the date you’d

like the DVR to reboot, there are several months of the year that don’t have a 31st day.

It is suggested that this date be avoided, for that reason.

• To maintain the operational integrity of the DVR, it is suggested that it be rebooted

periodically. In much the same way that a computer can become unstable if

left on for an extremely long time, the DVR can become unstable. It is strongly

suggested that the DVR be rebooted at least once per month. However, as this

can be a hassle (particularly if the DVR is stashed away somewhere inconvenient)

you can set the DVR up to reboot itself.

When the DVR is rebooted, no settings will be lost, and it will automatically resume its

recording mode and schedule without alteration.

UPDATE: For loading new soft/rmware onto the DVR via a USB ash drive. Usually,

you won’t need to use this setting unless directed to do so by Swann Technical Sup-

port.

LOAD DEFAULT: Returns the DVR to it’s initial factory settings. Can be useful if, for

some unknown reason, the DVR is behaving erratically. You can select specic attri-

butes of the DVR to return to the default - for example, you could reset the Recording

Options to the factory default whilst leaving your recording schedule unaected.

REBOOT: Turns o and restarts the DVR immediately.

POWER OFF: As the DVR has no power switch, you should click on this option rst if

you want to power o your DVR or disconnect it from the power. This gives the DVR

time to stop what it is doing and prepare to shut down properly and avoid data cor-

ruption on the hard drive. Once the DVR has completed its shutdown process, it will

indicate when it is safe to unplug the power cable.
