8 START UP
8.1 ACTIVATION (LOGIN SETUP)
When the system starts for the first time or when it has been reset to Inactive status, a series of Activation
screens will appear allowing you to setup your Admin Password, Security Questions, and Lock Screen
Pattern. Before you start! YOU WILL NEED A USB FLASH DRIVE TO SAVE YOUR SECURITY SETTINGS.
PASSWORD CREATION
The system does not have a default password,
the first time the system starts you will need to
create a password. This password is required to
access the system and for adding the Device
(DVR) in the mobile app.
The password must be 8-16 characters and must
include at least 2 of the following: numbers,
lowercase / uppercase letters, and special
characters.
We recommend creating a password that is easy to remember but difficult for others to guess and
resetting your password regularly for added protection. REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORD!
STEPS:
• Admin: Create and enter your password.  This is the same password you will use when adding
the device (DVR) in the mobile app.
• Confirm: Re-enter your password.
• IP Camera Activation: Create and enter a password.  This field is only required for IP
Cameras which are not available from Defender for the 4K system however this field is
mandatory to complete this screen.
• Click the Security Question checkbox to set up the questions.  If you forget your password
there are only 2 ways to access your system: Security Questions and GUID Import so we highly
recommend setting up these questions.
• Click OK to set the password and to move to the next screen.
SECURITY QUESTIONS
If you forget your password Security Questions can be
used to verify you are authorized to access the system.
WARNING: DO NOT RIGHT CLICK DURING ACTIVATION
BECAUSE YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE
SECURITY QUESTION SECTION. YOU WILL ONLY BE
ABLE TO ACCESS THE SYSTEM USING GUID IF YOU
FORGET YOUR PASSWORD
STEPS:
• Use the drop-down to select from the list of
possible Questions.
