Replacement Instructions  
C2616M (6/06)  
Introduction  
This manual provides instructions for replacing the primary master or secondary slave hard disk drive in a DX4000 Series  
DVR (digital video recorder).  
PARTS AND TOOLS  
NOTE: This replacement kit includes a Pelco-certified hard disk drive (160 GB or 250 GB). Using any other hard disk drive  
with the DX4000 voids the manufacturer's warranty for the DX4000.  
Before proceeding, make sure that your replacement kit contains the following parts:  
Description  
QTY  
Pelco-certified hard disk drive, either 160 GB or 250 GB  
ESD disposable wrist strap

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, back up all essential video before you install a new hard disk drive. If your unit contains two hard disk  
drives, back up all essential video on the unaffected drive as well.  
4. Shut down the DX4000 DVR unit. Refer to the DX400 installation or operation manuals for instructions on shutting  
down the unit.  
5. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket and then from the rear of the DVR.  
WARNING: For safety reasons, you must remove the power cord because current continues to flow through the  
DX4000 even when the unit is off. Remove the power cord from the wall socket first and then from the rear of the  
DVR. It is critical that the unit be unplugged for your safety.  
Figure 1. Removing the Power Cord  
6. Ensure that the DX4000 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. ESD Protection  
A disposable ESD wrist strap (refer to Figure 3) is included with this kit. Attach the copper end of this wrist strap to  
any unpainted surface of an appliance that is grounded. An appliance is considered grounded if it can direct ESD to  
the earth usually through its power cable. An appliance that is plugged into an electrical outlet is considered  
grounded. The DX4000 is not considered grounded when it is unplugged. As an alternative, you can discharge built-  
up static by periodically touching an unpainted section of an appliance.

7. Never replace a hard disk with a formatted hard disk. Use only a Pelco-certified hard disk drive (160 GB or 250 GB).  
Using any other hard disk drive with the DX4000 voids the manufacturer's warranty for the unit.

Preparing the Unit to Install the Drive  
WARNING: The chassis assembly includes parts with sharp edges. To avoid injury, use caution  
when handling the DX4000 chassis or components.  
1. Turn off power to the DX4000, and then remove the power cord from the unit.  
2. Remove the top cover of the DVR (refer to Figure 4).  
a. Remove all nine screws from the DVR — three screws on each side and three on the top. Set aside the screws.

Replacing the Hard Disk  
Install only blank hard disk drives received from the Pelco factory. Do not install a replacement hard disk drive that is  
already formatted. Hard disk drives that are already formatted can cause errors on the DX4000.  
WARNING: Any video on the hard disk drive will be lost when the drive is replaced. If possible,  
back up important video recordings before you replace a hard disk drive.  
1. Locate the hard disk drive in the front of the DVR (refer to Figure 6). In a two-drive unit, the primary (master) and  
secondary (slave) hard disk drives are stacked on top of each other.  
Figure 6. Locating the Hard Disk Drives  
2. Remove the hard disk drive:  
a. Disconnect the power and data cables from the hard disk drive or drives.  
b. Remove the screws that secure the brackets to the chassis floor. (Refer to Figure 6.)  
c. Remove the nut screws that secure the damaged hard disk drive to the brackets. (Refer to Figure 6.) It is not  
necessary to remove both hard disk drives if you are replacing only one of them.  
d. Set aside the screws to reattach the replacement drive.

3. Verify that the jumper on the replacement hard disk drive is set correctly as either Master or Slave. The Master hard  
disk drive requires a jumper; the Slave hard disk drive does not.  
Figure 7. Jumper Placement on Master Hard Disk Drive  
4. Replace the hard disk drives.  
Primary HDD-Jumper setting to Master. For the secondary drive, set the Secondary HDD-Jumper setting to  
Slave.  
b. Attach the brackets to the hard disk drives with the nut screws that you removed in step 2c. If you are replacing  
the bottom drive of a two-drive model, be sure to set the unaffected hard disk drive in its original position on  
top of the replacement drive, and then secure it in place with the brackets.  
c. Set the hard disk drives in the chassis, and then attach the brackets to the chassis with the screws that you  
removed in step 2b.  
d. Use the correct IDE channel and insert an IDE cable into the drive. The connector labeled Main Board attaches  
to the motherboard. The other connectors labeled Master HDD and Slave HDD attach to the hard disk drives.  
For the primary hard disk drive, use Master HDD. For the secondary hard disk drive, use Slave HDD.  
e. Insert a power cable into each drive.  
5. Secure the wires with tie-wraps, if available.

Reassembling the Unit  
1. Replace the lid, and use the original screws to secure the lid in place.  
2. Reconnect the power cord.  
3. Restart the DX4000, and then follow the prompts to format the replacement hard disk drive.  
Formatting the New Hard Disk Drive  
WARNING: Do not turn off the unit while formatting a hard disk drive. Loss of power while formatting a hard disk  
drive can cause fatal errors.  
The first time you start the DX4000 with a replacement hard disk drive, you will be prompted to format the drive. If you do  
not format the hard disk drive, the DX4000 cannot recognize it. Formatting a hard disk drive can take several minutes.  
While you are formatting a hard disk drive, you cannot change other menu settings.  
To format a hard disk drive  
1. Turn on the DX4000 to display the Checking Hard Disk Drives message. The default response to question is No. If you  
are replacing two hard disk drives, the message appears a second time after the first hard disk drive is formatted.  
Figure 8. Format Hard Disk Drive Message  
2. Press the Play button on the front panel of the unit to change the response to Yes. Press the Reverse Play button to  
change the response back to No. Repeat this step for each hard disk drive that is being replaced.

After the hard disk drives are formatted, the Login screen appears with the Administrator user ID.  
Figure 10. Login Screen  
3. Enter a password for the administrator, and then press the Enter button.  
The DX4000 is now ready again. Formatting a hard disk drive does not modify any settings for the DX4000; it merely  
prepares the hard disk drive to store video.
