It also can make the materials’ mechanical properties changed and metal components corroded. When exposing to the low humidity, the insulating gaskets will shrink and may loose the fastening screws. Static may occur in the dry environment and thus endangers electrostatic-sensitive components. The insulating materials will accelerate the aging process under high temperature, which will seriously affect the device’s life span. Therefore, the device should stay away from high temperature and avoid direct exposure to sunlight.

3-2

To ensure the normal heat dissipation: do not put the device in the poorly ventilated places; do not block the ventilation holes or rear cooling fans. The installing place should be more than 5cm from other devices or walls. In order to avoid condensation: forbid moving the device from too hot to too cold places or from too cold to too hot places, because the condensation inside the device will affect the life span seriously. To ensure the HDD’s stable performance: Put DVR in air-conditioned environment or chassis with well ventilation.

3.2.2 Environment Cleanness

Environment cleanness will affect the life span of cooling fans, please check the fans regularly. Dust will also affect the device security seriously. Indoor dust falling on the equipment will lead to electrostatic adsorption which makes the metal connectors or metal contact points bad. It affects not only the device’s life span but audio/video transmission quality.

3.2.3 Anti-static Requirement

Many measures for anti-static are taken for BSR-5000N/NE. When the static is above a certain level, it can crash the circuit board or the device. Electrostatic induction occurs mainly from two ways during operation. One is the external electric field such as outdoor high-voltage transmission cable and lighting; the other is the indoor environment, floor materials and the device structure.

Therefore, the followings should be considered to prevent static:

1) Good earth of device and floor

2) Prevent indoor dust

3) Maintain proper temperature and humidity

4) Place disconnected circuit boards on an anti-static workbench with face upward or in an anti-static bag

5) Please hold the edge of the circuit board or HDD during installation and disconnection, avoid bare touching of the circuit board or the HDD components

3.2.4 Electromagnetic Environment

The possible interference source of BSR-5000N/NE series DVRs, whether it generates from the device or application system external or from the internal, will affect the device in the form of


3-3

capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, electromagnetic radiation, public impedance coupling (including grounding system). Therefore, the following needs to be done to prevent interference Take effective measures to prevent power system interference The installation location should be far away from the electrical device grounding place and anti-lightning device place Keep away from radio transmitting station, radar transmitting station, or high-frequency high-current device Take electromagnetic shielding measures if necessary

3.2.5 Environmental Protection

Electromagnetic radiation: it complies with the national standard of electromagnetic radiation of no harm to human body. Energy consumption: the power-saving design complies with relevant energy consumption regulations of ENERGY-STAR.

3.2.6 Avoid Electric Shock and Fire

The precision electronic device DVR must be reliably earthed, although it has been designed with many electrostatic protection functions. BSR-5000N/NE internal earth device has been connected to the AC power earth terminal. Please make sure that the AC power contact point in the middle of the plug-board is reliably earthed. Do not split liquid on the DVR; otherwise it may cause internal short-circuit or fire. Do not put other devices on top of DVR. Voltage remains when power cables of DVR connecting to the power plug-socket, even if the DVR is disabled.

Chapter 4 HDD Installation

4-1

Chapter 4HDD Installation This chapter details the BSR-5000N/NE DVR’s installation processes, mainly including HDD capacity selection, HDD installation and DVR installation.

4.1 HDD Selection and Installation

4.1.1 HDD Selection

1. HDD types selection:

Attention

Two types of HDD interfaces are provided for BSR-5000N/NE: IDE or SATA.

Please make sure the supported HDD types before ordering products.

2. HDD models and parameters Please make sure that the HDD has been installed for the initial installation. 7200RPM and the above high-speed HDD are recommended for the jumpers.

Attention

HDD’s performance plays a key role for the device stability. Therefore, users

need to choose suitable HDD manufacturers and models. Please consult our

device agent or BlueStar’s technician if you are not sure about it.

3. Single HDD capacity selection BSR-5000N/NE series DVR has no restriction on the capacity of single HDD, and can support at most 8000GB theoretically.

4. Total capacity selection Calculation formula of HDD capacity:

Total HDD capacity (M) =channel numbers × time needed (h) × HDD space occupied per hour (M/h)

In a similar way, the calculation formula of video recording time is:

Recording time (h) =Total HDD capacity (M)/ (HDD space occupied per hour (M/h) × channel numbers)

4


4-2

Take an 8-ch DVR for example: the video recording capacity of each channel is 135M/h, and the constant audio recording capacity of each channel is 14.4M/h, so the required HDD capacity for continuous 24 hours video recording of 20 days is: 8-ch×20D×24h×(135+14.4)M/h=573G.

It requires three 250G HDDs or two 320G HDDs.

The HDD space occupied per hour is closely related to the image quality of the channel. BSR-5000N/NE series DVRs set the image quality of each channel separately, so it must sum up the channel’s capacity that calculated separately for the HDD total capacity.

Transmission CIF 400Kbps 180 MB/H

Attention

1) BSR-5000N/NE series DVRs adopt MPEG4 compression technology that

features considerable dynamic range. The HDD bitrate fluctuates up and

down with the image change’s degree based on the above parameters. The


4-3

accurate recording time is subject to the on-site test result.

2) The HDD capacity calculated is based on the occupied HDD space per

hour other than the converted occupied HDD space per minute.

3) The HDD capacity calculated according to the image quality must consider

the bitrate of audio channel. The audio constant bitrate of each channel is

32Kbps and is equal to 14.4M/H.

4.1.2 Precautions during HDD Installation

Attention

1) Please make sure that the DVR is shut down during HDD installation or

replacement. Inserting or removing HDD in power-on state is absolutely

forbidden; otherwise, it may damage the HDD or internal components.
