See over for configuration steps.
Overview
This document covers how to:
• Connect essential hardware to a MAXPRO NVR PE unit.
• Configure network settings, set up IP addresses, and discover connected devices.
• Configure a MAXPRO NVR PE unit to record video.
Note More detailed MAXPRO NVR PE documentation is available on the software and documentation DVD
included with your unit.
1. Before You Begin
The following items come with your MAXPRO NVR PE chassis and may be needed for installation and setup:
Note Other peripheral hardware (owner supplied) will also be needed for your installation, such as cameras,
network equipment, and an optional keyboard controller. See 2. Installing Unit for more information.
2. Installing Unit
Components of a MAXPRO NVR PE System
Your system may include some or all of the following components:
• Hard drives for video storage
• Video cameras and/or PTZ dome cameras (owner supplied)
• VGA monitor (owner supplied)
• Keyboard controller (owner supplied)
• Computer keyboard (included)
• Computer mouse (included)
• Rail hardware kit for rack mount installations (included)
Mounting the MAXPRO NVR Unit in a Rack and Installing Hard Drives
1. Remove the bezel from the front of the unit. To remove the bezel, turn the two bezel key locks clockwise, and then
pull the bezel away from the unit.
2. The MAXPRO NVR PE unit should be mounted with the supplied rail hardware kit. The kit allows the MAXPRO NVR
PE unit to slide in and out of the rack it is mounted in and provides rear support for the chassis. Refer to the
installation instructions included with the rail hardware kit.
3. Install the supplied video storage hard drives in the hard drive slots located on the front of the unit. The drives are
numbered from 1 to 10, from the top left to the bottom right.
Note
The video storage hard drives are pre-configured for RAID 5 in the factory but can be reconfigured for RAID 6
if required, however there will be less usable video storage space.
4. Replace the bezel on the front of the unit. To replace the bezel, align the bezel key locks with the handles on the
front plate of the unit, and then slide the bezel into place. Turn the bezel key locks counterclockwise to secure the
bezel.

Cameras
Connect a network switch to the Gigabit LAN 1 connector (camera network port) at the rear of the MAXPRO NVR PE
unit. Connect your cameras to the network switch with CAT5 Ethernet cables. The Gigabit LAN 2 (client network port)
can be used to connect remote client workstations on a separate network, isolating the load on the camera port.
Monitor(s)
Connect a VGA monitor. The recommended settings for your monitor are 1280 × 1024 pixels (resolution), and 65K
colors non-interlaced (color quality). Refer to the MAXPRO
®
NVR Commissioning and Installation Guide for more
information on configuring the monitor display properties. The local VGA monitor can be used to configure the NVR,
however continuous local video monitoring is not recommended.
Keyboard and Mouse
Before powering up the MAXPRO NVR PE, connect the supplied PS/2 keyboard and mouse to the DIN-8 connectors at
the rear of the unit.
Keyboard Controller
Follow the documentation that was included with your keyboard controller to connect it to the MAXPRO NVR PE unit
through the network.
4. Powering On the Unit
Note Honeywell recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for the MAXPRO NVR PE unit,
camera network switch, and the cameras. Powering the cameras, network switch, and unit from a UPS
ensures that the MAXPRO NVR PE unit can continue to record video during a power outage. If you need to
monitor video during a power outage, consider a UPS for the client workstation and client network switch
as well.
MAXPRO NVR PE Power On Sequence
1. Turn on the camera(s) and other hardware connected to the MAXPRO NVR PE unit.
Note Honeywell recommends turning on the cameras before turning on the MAXPRO NVR PE unit since IP
cameras can take up to two minutes to boot up. Online cameras can be easily discovered by the unit after
startup. It is also recommended to turn on other associated network components, such as a network switch
or router, before turning on the MAXPRO NVR PE.
2. Press the power button on the front of the MAXPRO NVR PE unit (the power button is labelled 6 in the image
below).
3. After powering on the unit, you are prompted to log on. The default user is user name: Administrator, password:
Password1. The user name and password are case sensitive.
