•
The camera should be installed between 8 and 13ft above the area to be monitored.
Ensure there are no obstructions in the camera’s view, to maximize viewing area.
Ensure that the sunshade is positioned to avoid glare and position camera away from direct sunlight.
Decide whether the camera will be wall-mounted or sit on a desk/table top. If wall mounting, use the
mounting hardware in the package. We recommend that the mounting bracket is secured using the included
screws for all installations.

•
This camera comes with 60ft of video/power wire. Please make sure that you mount the cameras no more
than 60ft from the TV/monitor/VCR/DVR.
We recommend using a surge protected power bar to protect the cameras internal circuitry.

RECORD QUALITY AND RECORD IPS
A brief explanation of IPS and recording quality will help you get the most of your system and the storage space you
have.
IPS (images per second) is the rate that the camera captures video. The less the IPS, the choppier the video will be,
the higher the IPS the smoother the video will be. However, the higher the IPS, the more space on your hard drive the
video will take. Note that you have a TOTAL of 120 IPS (30/camera) for all the cameras combined.
To save space, and optimize your video logs, it is often recommended to set the normal record IPS low, so that when
nothing out of the ordinary is happening the video quality is low, but not taking up too much space. You can then set
the Event Record IPS and the Pre-Record IPS to a higher IPS so when an event occurs you guarantee a better quality
video. This will help save space so you will not run out of hard drive space when an important event happens, and
provide you with the optimal video for the times when it is most necessary.
Record Quality – Sets the record quality for this camera. Press +/- buttons to select the value (1-9, with 1 the lowest
(rough) quality, 9 the highest (fine) quality).
Event Record IPS – the IPS (Images Per Second) for this camera if an event (Motion, Alarm) occurs for this camera.
This camera will be recorded at this rate for post-record time since the event occurs. (Please refer to the following
sections for post-record time.) Press +/- buttons to select the value (30 (NTSC)/ 0 – 25 (PAL), discrete).
Pre-record IPS – the Pre-record IPS for this camera if an event (Video Loss, Motion, Alarm) occurs for this camera.
This camera is recorded at this rate for Pre-record time before the event occurs. Please note that the total
Event Record IPS / Pre-record IPS should not exceed the system recording capacity (NTSC: 120/CIF, 60/Half-D1, 30/
Full-D1; PAL: 100/CIF, 50/Half-D1, 25/Full-D1), or the system will lower the actual rate automatically at recording.
Normal Record IPS – the normal record IPS for this camera. This camera will be recorded at this rate if no event
occurs. Press +/- buttons to select the value (0 – Pre-record IPS for this camera, discrete).
NOTE: The total Event Record IPS/Pre-record IPS can not exceed the system recording
capacity (NTSC: 120/CIF, 60/Half-D1, 30/Full-D1; PAL: 100/CIF, 50/Half-D1, 25/Full-D1),
or the system will lower the actual rate automatically at recording.

The Clearvu11 has a unique function that allows you to adjust the DVR to partition your hard drive to store a certain
amount of normal recording and a certain amount of alarm recording. In the surveillance applications, alarm video/
audio can be much more important than normal video/audio. So, this digital video/audio recorder is designed to
allow the user to divide each HDD into alarm partition and normal partition. Alarm video/audio will be recorded in
alarm partition, normal video/audio in normal partition. This will prevent the hard drive from filling up with normal
recording and tape over the important alarm recordings.
The HDD Setup allows the administrator to format/clear each HDD, set Alarm Record size and Normal Record size of
each HDD, and define the behaviors for Alarm Record and Normal Record if it reaches the end of the last HDD in the
system.

connected to the port that it was plugged into. If this light is on, you can proceed to finding the DVR’s
IP Address.
FINDING THE DVR’S IP ADDRESS
Once the DVR is connected to the router you will need to find the IP address of the DVR. This is referred to as the
“Internal IP Address”of the DVR.
To check the DVR’s IP address:

most users. If your router does not support DHCP or the DVR needs to
store PPPoE (ADSL) settings contact your network administrator or
ISP (Internet Service Provider) for the proper IP address settings.
NOTE: By default, the DVR network settings are set to DHCP. This means the DVR will automatically get an IP
address from the router when it is connected properly.
7. Write down your IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and
DNS on the notes section. This information will be used to view the
DVR on your computer and also assist in being able to view the DVR
over the Internet.

CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER (PORT FORWARDING) TO VIEW THE DVR EXTERNALLY
* Your router will need to be configured properly before being able to view the DVR from a location different than the DVR*
Port forwarding is a necessary step that opens a path on your home/business network to allow you to view your DVR
from outside your network (over the Internet).
There are hundreds of makes and brands of routers on the market and these instructions have been made using a
D-Link router (Model DI-604). If you have a router that is different than the example shown, you can find step by step
NOTE: SVAT technical support cannot troubleshoot modems, since changing these settings can potentially render

2. If you see an advertisement, click on “Click here to skip this advertisement”in the top right-hand corner.
3. You will see a list of various applications. Any application will outline the port forwarding steps, but it is
recommended to find a link for any DVR or IP camera and click that.
4. Follow the instructions but make sure you forward the correct port number (the port number assigned to
your DVR). The default port numbers that need to be forwarded are 67, 68 and 80. All three ports need to be
configured.
FINDING YOUR DEFAULT GATEWAY (ROUTER’S IP ADDRESS)
Your default gateway can be found by opening up a command prompt window and typing in IPconfig.
Open the command prompt by completing one of these methods:
1. Select Start on your desktop, then select Run. Type in “cmd”and press ENTER.

In this example a D-Link D1-604 router was used. The steps for your router may be similar to the following steps.
These instructions have also been created without a firewall in place. If you have a firewall, please consult a computer
technician or your network administrator.
You need to configure the router to forward the port numbers that the DVR uses.This will allow a computer over the internet
to properly communicate with the DVR. The CLEARVU11 by default uses ports 67, 68, 80. All 3 ports need to be configured.

set time
E.g. 2 pm = 14:00.
• Option 2.Verify the scheduled recording time frames. IfT1 is set to 6:30 and
T2 is set to 17:00 this means you are setting up a time frame from 6:30 in the
morning until 5:00 in the afternoon. Depending on the recordings you have
set in the T1 recording block you can set the Alarm, Motion, and/or Normal
recording modes record Video only (V), Audio/Video (A/V), or No Recording
(No). If you set Alarm to No, Motion to No, and Normal to “V”. Than the first time
segment “T1”will record continuous Video from 6:30 am to 5:00 pm (17:00).
• Option 3.Verify your time is set correctly. If the DVR is in a time zone that uses
daylight savings make sure that “Daylight Saving Time”is set to on.
• Option 4. If the DVR SystemTime is set up for“Synchronization”, make sure
that the DVR is properly connected to the internet.

• Make sure the power adapter is plugged in to an active electrical outlet.
If everything is connected, cup your hands around the camera lens and you
should see the red LEDs illuminate. Make sure it is dark enough to activate the
light sensor.
• If the LEDs do not illuminate, try switching the power adapter with a working
camera’s power adapter. This will indicate if it is the power adapter which
needs to be replaced.
•Verify the pins on the 4pin din connection are not bent and are being properly
inserted to the proper connector.
• If no power/video signal even with the new power adapter, connect the
camera that is in question to a working cable set. (Disconnect a working
camera and connect the camera in question to that cable set) The camera
should function correctly. If the camera functions correctly the test indicates
that there is a bad cable.
