Introduction This manual provides instructions for installing a replacement hard disk drive or upgrading to a higher capacity hard disk drive in a DVR5100 Series DVR (digital video recorder).
Getting Started 1. Familiarize yourself with the instructions throughout this manual. 2. Check that you have all the necessary parts and tools. Refer to Parts and Tools on page 3. 3. If possible, export all essential video before you install a new hard disk drive. If your unit contains two hard disk drives, export all essential video on the unaffected drive as well. Follow the instructions for exporting video in the operation manual. 4. Shut down the DVR5100 DVR unit.
6. Ensure that the DVR5100 DVR and all of its components are protected from electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before handling any electronic components, you should take steps to ground yourself properly so that any built-up static electric charges are dissipated away from the unit. The most effective method for combating ESD is to use a properly grounded wrist strap (refer to Figure 2). These wrist straps are designed to be plugged into specially-designed mats. Figure 2.
Hard Disk Drive Replacement PREPARING THE UNIT TO INSTALL A DRIVE WARNING: The chassis assembly includes parts with sharp edges. To avoid injury, use caution when handling the DVR5100 chassis or components. 1. Log off the system and shut down the machine. The power will turn off automatically. 2. As a precaution against electrostatic shock, remove the power cord from the rear panel of the unit, and then disconnect all devices attached to it. Use the enclosed disposable ESD wrist strap to dissipate ESDs. 3.
INSTALLING A HARD DISK DRIVE WARNING: Install only hard disk drives received from the Pelco factory. Any video on the hard disk drive will be lost when the drive is replaced. If possible, export important video recordings before you replace a hard disk drive. Follow the instructions for exporting video in the operation manual. 1. Follow the instructions at Preparing the Unit to Install a Drive on page 6 to open your unit. 2. Locate the hard disk drive cage in the front of the DVR. Figure 6.
b. Lift up and slide the cage out from under the retainer bracket. Notice that there are two tabs along the bottom of the cage that secure it in place. Figure 8. Removing the Hard Disk Drive Cage c. Remove the power and data cable from both of the drives in the cage. Figure 9.
d. With a Phillips screw driver, remove and set aside the four screws that secure the drive to the sides of the cage. Figure 10. Removing the Screws from Hard Disk Drive in the Cage e. Slide the drive out of the cage being careful to avoid scratching the bottom of the drive against the metal of the cage. Figure 11. Removing the Hard Disk Drive from the Cage f. Repeat this step for each drive that is being replaced.
WARNING: Never replace a hard disk with a formatted hard disk. Use only a Pelco-certified hard disk drive (250, 400, or 500 GB). Using any other hard disk drive with the DVR5100 voids the manufacturer's warranty for the unit. 5. To return the cage to the chassis do the following: a. Attach the power and data cable to the drive or drives. b. Place the cage in the chassis and guide the tabs under the retainer bracket. Figure 12. Inserting the Hard Disk Drive Cage in the Chassis c.
REASSEMBLING THE UNIT 1. Replace the lid, and use the original screws to secure the lid in place. 2. Reattach any devices that you disconnected from the unit (refer to Figure 15). 3. Reconnect the power cord. 4. Restart the DVR5100, and then enter a user name and password on the Login screen to log on to the system. NOTE: Restarting the DVR5100 after replacing a hard disk drive can take a long time.
