POWERING ON THE NVR300
After the hard disk drives have been installed and the necessary connections have been made to the NVR300, power can be applied to the unit.
To power on the NVR300, do the following:
1. Turn on the attached monitor.
2. On the rear panel of the NVR300, set the power supply ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
3. On the front panel of the NVR300, press the POWER button to power on the unit.
The NVR300 boots. During the boot process, the NVR300 splash screen appears, followed by the recovery boot option screen and the
Windows XP boot screens. The Windows XP log-in screen then appears.
NOTES:
• The recovery boot option screen is used to recover the system drive if the operating software or the NVR300 software is corrupted.
The screen times out after 30 seconds.
• The NVR300 software is a service. If the NVR300 is unable to boot correctly the first time, the NVR300 system automatically restarts the
service. If the NVR300 service fails to start again, the system initiates a hard reboot. If the service fails to start after the hard reboot, a
message indicating that the NVR300 service failed to start is sent by the Messenger service of Windows XP to client PCs and to VMX300
systems connected to the NVR300. In order to receive the message, the Messenger service on the client PCs and on the VMX300 systems
must be running (default setting is Automatic).
• To log in to Windows XP as NVR300, click NVR300. The Windows XP desktop then appears.
