Installation

This section describes how to install the TVR 41 unit.

Installation environment

When installing your product, consider these factors:

• Ventilation

• Temperature

• Moisture

• Chassis load

Ventilation: Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure that the location planned for the installation

of the unit is well ventilated.

Temperature: Consider the unit’s operating temperature (-10 to +55 ºC, 14 to

131 °F) and noncondensing humidity specifications (10 to 90%) before choosing

an installation location. Extremes of heat or cold beyond the specified operating

temperature limits may reduce the life expectancy of the DVR. Do not install the

unit on top of other hot equipment. Leave 44 mm (1.75 in.) of space between

rack-mounted TruVision DVR 41 units.

Moisture: Do not use the unit near water. Moisture can damage the internal

components. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to

rain or moisture.

Chassis: Equipment weighing less than 15.9 kg (35 lb.) may be placed on top of

the unit.

Unpacking the TVR 41 and its accessories

When you receive the product, check the package and contents for damage, and

verify that all items are included. There is an item list included in the package. If

any of the items are damaged or missing, please contact your local supplier.
