Compare the software version number listed on your box label, or from the Help menu of the DVR user interface with the version indicated on

IMPORTANT:
Read and keep all instructions, including the important Safety Instruction sheet that was supplied with your DVR. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in the loss of important video evidence. This DVR uses hard disk drives for primary storage. These disk drives contain
moving parts that will eventually wear and fail. The unit should be checked at regular intervals to verify proper operation.
CAUTION:
The recorder should be installed in an air conditioned room where the temperature is maintained between 50° and 80°F (10° and 26.67°C)
with relative humidity not to exceed 80 percent, noncondensing. Ambient temperature is directly correlated with the probability of a hard disk drive
failure. Elevated operating temperatures will shorten drive life expectancy. The ideal ambient temperature is 74°F (23°C). To ensure reliable operation,
place the DVR in a temperature controlled environment.
WARNING:
It is recommended that the recorder be connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) capable of powering the DVR5100. For power
requirements, please consult the specification sheet.
