RACK MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS  
A) Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating  
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,  
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the  
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.  
B) Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air  
flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.  
C) Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous  
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.  
D) Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the  
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection  
and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when  
addressing this concern.  
E) Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular  
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit  
(e.g. use of power strips).

OPTICAL AND ACOUSTICAL STATEMENTS  
VISIBLE LED STATEMENT  
The LEDs on this DVR unit are classified as “Class 1 LED Product” in accordance with EN 60825-1.  
LASER SAFETY STATEMENT FOR A CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT  
This CD-ROM Storage device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital  
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable  
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a residential installation.  
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used  
in accordance with the instruction manual may cause harmful interference. If this equipment does  
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, the user is can attempt to correct this by  
following one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is  
connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.  
The mass storage system does not product hazardous laser radiation. Because laser light emitted  
inside the mass storage system is completely confined within the protective housings and external  
covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.  
CAUTION: Due to the extremely fast rotation speed of the CD-ROM  
drive spindle motor (9000 ~ 12000 rpm), the drive’s performance could  
be affected by using substandard discs. These substandard discs may  
be damaged, or damage the CD-ROM drive.  
Check each CD for cracks before using it. If there are cracks on the surface, especially on the  
border of the center hole, do not use it in the CD-ROM drive. Using such CDs can cause  
irreparable damage to the CD-ROM drive.  
Do not leave CDs in direct sunlight or hot, humid locations.  
Always remove CDs from the drive after use.  
To protect CDs from scratches, never touch the CD face or place the CD face down on a hard  
surface.  
Do not affix highly adhesive stickers to a CD.

KEYBOARD SETUP  
To attach the keyboard to the DVR unit,  
plug the end of the Keyboard cable into  
the keyboard PS/2 Port located on the  
back of the machine. The keyboard PS/2  
Port can be identified by the purple color.  
Refer to Section 2.3 – Rear Panel  
Connectors for more information.  
3.3  
MOUSE SETUP  
To attach the mouse to the DVR unit, plug the end of the mouse cable into the mouse  
PS/2 Port located on the back of the machine. The mouse PS/2 Port can be identified  
by the green color. Refer to the Section 2.3 – Rear Panel Connectors for more  
information.  
The mouse uses a cursor called a pointer. Pointers come in many different shapes  
but are most commonly shaped like an arrow.  
The mouse has two buttons: a left button and a right button. Quickly pressing and  
releasing one of these buttons is called clicking. Sometimes it will be necessary to  
double-click – or click the same button twice quickly.  
In this manual, click means to position the mouse point on an icon and to single click  
the left button. When a right click is required, this is stated clearly. Double-click also  
refers to the left button.  
The ratchet wheel in between the two buttons is added to provide easier scrolling  
capability. By simply moving the wheel with your index finger, you can quickly move  
through multiple pages, lines, or windows. The wheel may also function as a third  
button allowing you to quickly click or double-click an icon or a selected item.

1. Turn on the monitor and any external peripherals (ex. Printers, External Storage  
Devices, etc.) connected to the DVR unit.  
2. Turn on the main power switch located on the front of the DVR unit as shown  
below. (See Section 2.2 – Front Panel Controls for location of the main power  
switch.)  
The DVR will run a series of self-tests. After two or three minutes, a series of  
messages may be displayed as the various hardware and software subsystems are  
activated. Under normal circumstances you should not be asked to respond to these  
messages. If you are asked to respond to the messages (adding a Printer, Monitor,  
etc., for the first time) follow the instructions carefully.

The DVR unit may take several minutes to shut down completely  
CAUTION: Always be sure to follow the proper procedures when  
turning off the power to the DVR unit. NEVER disconnect the power to

5.4.4 VIDEO LOSS ALARM  
The DVR supports a Video Loss Alarm function which allows an Alarm Event to occur  
when a camera loses its signal. The lost signal can be due to Power failure to the  
camera, the camera cable being cut or unplugged, or the camera being damaged in  
some way.  
In order to use Video Signal Loss detection, cameras must either be turned ON or  
OFF. This is because the DVR needs to know which cameras it should expect to  
receive signals from. To turn camera(s) ON, open Frame Setup, and set the Frames  
Per Second to anything above zero. By designating zero frames per second the  
camera will not be used by the DVR.

Outputs.  
SENSOR - Sensor Inputs can be programmed to instantly start one or more cameras  
recording when an alarm occurs. These alarm events can also activate Relay Outputs  
as desired.  
RELAY OUTPUT - Relay Outputs can be set to activate when motion alarms or sensor  
alarms occur.  
The schedule will be as follows:  
1. SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Cameras 1 and 2 will be activated on Sensor #3  
and/or Sensor #5, which will then activate Relay Output #7 and #13.  
2. SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Camera 3 will be set to Record on MOTION.  
When motion occurs it will activate Relay Output #7 and #10.  
3. SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Sensor #6 will activate Relay Output #8 when an  
alarm occurs. This event will NOT cause any cameras to record.  
To do this, a total of 3 schedules will be created.

AFTER IMAGE REMOVAL  
The DVR unit is capable of recording video using one of three different resolutions.  
When using the 720 x 480 resolution, two fields are mixed. Because of the timing gap  
between the two fields, according to the standardized image rules, after image might  
occur to high speed moving images. The Fusion DVR unit allows you to remove this by  
pressing the After Image Removal button.  
The images below demonstrate the filtered screen.

SEARCH OPTIONS OVERVIEW  
The Search Options allows the user to find the requested images quickly, enhance the  
image quality, and export the video or images in a number of ways.  
Index Search:  
Used to perform a search based on Motion detection and Sensor  
activation. Allows for quickly narrowing down large amounts of  
recorded video based on particular criterion.  
Preview Search:  
Allows for narrowing down recorded video in a 24 Hour period.  
Each day is broken into 24 images, one image for each hour of  
the day. (The images are taken from the first second of each  
hour). When an image is selected, the ‘hour’ chosen is then  
broken down into 6 images, one image for every 10 minute  
increment. When a 10-minute increment image is selected, 10  
images are displayed, one for every minute within the 10 minute  
period. From this point, the selected image can be applied to the  
Main Search.  
Object Search:  
Status Search:  
Used to specify a region on an image and perform a search  
based on any motion that has occurred within that region.  
Displays recorded video in a color coded format that allows easy  
selection of the portion of video you wish to play.  
6.7  
PERFORMING A BASIC SEARCH  
There are several different types of searches that can be performed on the DVR unit.  
The most basic involves simply selecting the date, the time, the camera, and pressing  
play.  
1. Select a date using the calendar.  
2. Select a time by adjusting the hour and minute slide bars.  
3. Select one or more cameras.  
4. Press Play. Video can be played forwards, backwards, or frame-by-frame.

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME  
The DVR automatically adjusts for Daylight  
Savings Time changes. When the hour “jumps  
forward” no video is lost because an hour is  
simply skipped. However when the hour “falls  
back” there is a duplicated hour that under  
normal circumstances would be recorded over.  
The Honeywell Fusion DVR actually records  
both hours and allows you to select which hour  
to play if the need arises.  
To access the “lost hour”:  
1. From the Search screen, select the  
Select Date button.  
2. Select the date when Daylight Savings time “lost” an hour.  
An option appears which says “Daylight Savings Time.”  
3. To play back the “lost” hour, select the Daylight Savings option.  
4. Select OK to confirm the date and begin playing the video using standard search  
features.  
6.9  
TIME SYNC  
The Time Sync option synchronizes a single channel of video to playback in real time.  
Ordinarily the video may playback slower or faster depending on several factors,  
including how many PPS recorded and number of cameras playing at the same time.  
In addition, the Time Sync option will be automatically enabled when an audio channel  
is selected inside Search.  
1. Select a single image to synchronize by double-clicking on an image.  
2. Select a channel of audio (optional).  
3. Press the Time Synch button. The video will now playback in real time.

6.10 PRINTING AN IMAGE  
The DVR can print a recorded image to a local or network printer.  
1. From the Search screen, stop on the image to print. Double-click the image.  
NOTE: Only one camera can be selected at a time for this function to work.  
2. Click on the Print button. A Print Options window appears. Depending on the  
printer being used, there may be several printing options available. Refer to the  
printer manual for more information.  
3. Press the Print button to print the selected images.  
NOTE: The message “NO DEFAULT PRINTERS INSTALLED” will display if no  
printer is installed.  
6.11 ‘SAVE TO’ FUNCTION  
The DVR unit can export single images in the .JPG file format, save video clips in  
the .AVI format, or output to a VCR using the s-video port. The JPG and AVI file  
formats are extremely common with virtually universal computer support making them  
ideal formats to use. A digital signature is also attached to every .JPG and .AVI file  
exported by the DVR for use with the bundled Digital Verifier application. This function  
is unique to the DVR and its Verification software and should not interfere with viewing  
the files using other applications.  
JPG:  
The format (.jpg) is optimized for compressing full-color or grayscale  
photographic images. JPG images are 24-bit (16.7 million color) graphics.  
JPG is used to export a single image or frame.  
AVI:  
AVI image data can be stored uncompressed, but it is typically compressed  
using a Windows-supplied or third party compression and decompression  
module called a codec. AVI files save a video clip.  
Analog Sends a full screen video signal to the s-video port of the DVR. This feature  
Out  
is only available on DVRs with an s-video out.

size is not an issue, setting quality to 100 is highly  
recommended.

6.13 PREVIEW SEARCH  
The Preview Search can be used in a number of circumstances to quickly find an exact  
moment where an event, such as a theft, occurred. The Preview Search basically gives  
a 24 Hour visual overview of a single camera by separating a 24 hour period  
(1 day) into 24 images, one image for each hour of the day. The search can then be  
further narrowed down into ten minute increments and one minute increments by  
simply selecting one of the images displayed.

Preset Tour  
These options define the type of Tour to use.  
The Preset Tour cycles through recorded Presets. For Ex.  
If Presets 1,2,4,6 and 9 are defined, then the Tour will cycle  
as such... 1,2,4,6,9,1,2,4,6,9,1,2...etc.  
The default cycle time is 5 seconds.  
Preset Tour 2  
This option works the same as the standard Preset Tour  
with the addition of a definable Travel Speed and Dwell  
Time. The Dwell and Travel speed can be defined for each  
preset by accessing and setting these options in the PTZ  
camera menu.

SECTION 8  
BACKING UP TO A CD-R DRIVE  
8.1  
BACKUP OVERVIEW  
The DVR unit can easily backup important video to an internal or external media  
location. The most commonly used are CD-RW drives and Hard Drives. Since the DVR  
unit comes standard equipped with a CD-RW drive, this section covers backing up  
using the CD-RW drive as well as by using a Hard Drive.  
The DVR unit backs up using a proprietary compression format that can only be read  
by the DVR Backup program. This ensures the integrity of the data. In addition the CD-  
RW also uses a proprietary format in which it stores the information. This format, called  
UDF, can only be read by a Computer which has the UDF reader software installed. A  
copy of Roxio® UDF Reader is on the Software Installation CD shipped with the DVR  
unit. A copy is also available for download from Roxio® direct (http://www.roxio.com).  
During the backup process the DVR unit will never stop recording. The DVR unit is a  
multiplexing unit that can perform virtually all functions without having to stop the  
recording process.  
In addition, you can now backup to multiple CDs when the file sizes exceed the size of  
one CD. Also, you can specify multiple locations to save to. For example you can save  
1/3 the data to a CD, 1/3 the data to the local Drive and 1/3 the data to a network drive.  
8.2  
DirectCD FORMAT UTILITY  
The Fusion DVR unit uses DirectCD® 5.0 to save the data to a CD-RW Drive.  
This allows the DVR to use the CD-RW just as it would any other attached Hard Drive,  
both reading and writing to it. CDR and CD-RW discs must be formatted in the  
DirectCD 5.0 UDF standard for the DVR unit to recognize them. It is recommended that  
CDR discs, NOT CD-RW discs, be used in the DVR unit only because of the format  
time and cost difference between the two. It can take 45 minutes to an hour to format a  
CD-RW disc but only 15 to 30 seconds to format a CDR disc. In addition, CDR discs  
are generally considerably less expensive than CD-RW discs.  
There are two ways to open the DirectCD format utility. The first is by exiting to  
windows. The second is by opening the Backup Window and pressing the Format CD  
button.  
CAUTION: Although many features are available within DirectCD, it is  
highly recommended that you do NOT use any features other than those  
necessary for the standard exportation of video as outlined in this  
section, otherwise loss of information or software instability could result.

SECTION 9  
LAN / ISDN / PSTN CONNECTIONS  
9.1  
LAN OVERVIEW  
The DVR unit can easily be connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) and uses  
Microsoft’s® powerful and secure Windows® 2000 operating system. This allows for  
easy and well-documented instructions on setting up LAN connections no matter what  
type of LAN you want to use.  
A LAN is a group of computers and other devices dispersed over a relatively limited  
area and connected by a communications link that allows one device to interact with  
any other on the network. Local Area Network is also called LAN.  
Examples of LAN connections include Ethernet, Token Ring, cable modems, DSL,  
FDDI, IP over ATM, IrDA (Infrared), wireless, and ATM-emulated LANs. Emulated  
LANs are based on virtual adapter drivers such as the LAN Emulation Protocol.  
There are a vast amount of reasons why using Microsoft® Windows® 2000 is far  
superior to other platforms when running on a LAN. The number one reason is  
security. Windows 2000 is based on NT technology, which, historically has boasted the  
most reliable and secure Operating System in the world. Running the DVR on a secure  
network is important to prevent unwanted users from gaining access to confidential  
information. Unwanted users can compromise the integrity of the confidential data  
being stored and viewed, and in extreme circumstances can cause irreparable damage  
to the network.  
Since connecting the DVR unit to a network can be extremely complex (depending on  
the network), this Fusion DVR manual will cover only the basics. It is suggested that  
you consult your Vendor or IT Administrator before attempting to create or connect to a  
LAN.  
9.2  
CONNECTING TO A LAN USING TCP/IP  
The networking options of the DVR unit can create and edit all Network settings  
available on Windows 2000. The DVR unit comes equipped with a 10/100 Network  
Interface Card (NIC). This card uses a standard RJ-45 connector.  
The DVR unit comes preconfigured with an IP Address of [172.25.2.1] and a subnet  
mask of [255.255.0.0]. These IP settings will work for many users. If these IP settings  
are sufficient then re-configuring TCP/IP will not be necessary.  
9.2.1 CONFIGURING TCP/IP SETTINGS  
1. Exit and restart in Windows mode.  
2. Right-click on the My Network Places icon located on the desktop and select  
Properties. The Network and Dial-Up Connections window opens.  
3. Right-click Local Area Connections and select Properties.  
The Local Area Connection Properties window opens.

FUSION DVR Digital Recording and Transmission System  
4. Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) by clicking on it once. Once it is highlighted,  
select the Properties button. The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window  
opens.  
5. Select Use the Following IP Address option. Enter the IP Address and Subnet  
mask appropriate for your network. It is recommended to contact your Network  
Administrator for appropriate IP settings.  
Example: Common IP addresses are 10.0.0.25  
Common Subnet masks are 255.255.255.0  
NOTE: In order to connect to the DVR unit through a remote LAN connection, a static  
IP address must be assigned. If the network assigns the IP address  
automatically (DHCP), contact the Network Administrator for help assigning a  
static IP address.  
6. If the network requires specifying your DNS information, enter it now by selecting  
the appropriate DNS options.  
7. When finished configuring the TCP/IP settings close the Internet Protocol  
(TCP/IP) Properties window by clicking the OK button.1  
8. Close the Local Area Connection Properties window by clicking the OK button.  
9. It may be required to restart Windows for the changes to take effect.  
Restart windows by selecting START on the desktop and selecting Restart.  
9.2.2 CONNECTING THE DVR TO A LAN  
Using a standard RJ-45 cable, plug one end into a Hub (or Network Jack ultimately  
connected to a hub) and the other end into the DVR unit.

Digital Signature Verifier  
10.1 DIGITAL VERIFIER  
JPG images and AVI video files that are exported from the Digital Video Recorder are  
automatically embedded with a Digital Signature. Digital Signatures are a way to verify  
the authenticity of the images to ensure that they have not been tampered with or  
edited in any way. Included on the Software Installation CD supplied with the DVR unit  
is the Digital Signature verification program. This program can be installed on any

11.1 PROPRIETARY VIEWER OVERVIEW  
The Proprietary Viewer plays back the exported video in its proprietary format.  
Video saved in this format is extremely difficult to tamper with and therefore is the ideal  
solution when law enforcement and legal departments are involved.  
This video cannot be read by any other viewer.  
The Proprietary Viewer is essentially the Search portion of the DVR software.  
For detailed explanation of these functions, refer to Section 6.

ALARM MONITOR  
12.1 ALARM MONITOR OVERVIEW  
The Alarm Monitor software is a utility that streams video across a Local Area  
Network to a Client PC when an alarm is detected on the DVR unit. The video that  
streams across can be stopped, played forwards and backwards, in slow motion or  
real speed.  
The utility is loaded at startup and placed in the taskbar. It constantly monitors for a  
signal from the DVR unit. When an alarm signal is detected the Alarm Monitor  
Image Viewer window opens and starts playing the video from the camera  
associated to the alarm.

It may be necessary to reduce the overall size of an  
AVI file; for example, to email to someone. AVI file  
sizes can be reduced by reducing the image quality.  
However, reducing the image quality causes the AVI

SECTION 13  
REMOTE SOFTWARE  
13.1 FUSION REMOTE SOFTWARE OVERVIEW  
The DVR unit was specifically designed to be fully operated and maintained remotely.  
It connects using the standard TCP/IP protocol thorough connection types such as  
DSL, Cable Modem, T1, ISDN, 56K Modem, LAN, and more. The Fusion Remote  
software provides for viewing live video, searching through archived video, exporting  
images and video clips; and provides virtually full Setup control.  
Highlights:  
Search archived video  
View live video  
Export images and video clips  
Control relay outputs  
Setup administration  
Basics:  
The DVR can have up to 5 Simultaneous remote Connections. Each user can perform  
functions on the DVR unit and will not affect the other users. The only exception to this  
is accessing Setup. Only one user is allowed to access setup at any given time. The  
Frames per Second passed to the Remote Client varies greatly depending on the  
connection type and speed.  
In order to log in to the DVR server, a user account must be made for the user.  
This ensures that only authorized personnel are allowed to log in. In addition, each  
user can be assigned different privileges that allow them or deny them access to  
different functions. (See Section 5.9 – User Management.) For example, a user can be  
denied Searching and Setup privileges and only granted access to view cameras 4, 8  
and 16.  
It is highly recommended that users not be granted Setup privileges  
since this can pose a security risk. Only properly authorized  
Administrators should have access to Setup.  
The Remote software operates virtually the same way as the DVR itself.  
Its appearance matches the DVR almost identically, however, there are a few minor  
differences. Some search features are not available (such as the Index and Object  
Searches) as well as some Setup options.
