Rack Mount Instructions  
A) Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient  
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be  
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature  
(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.  
B) Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow  
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.  
C) Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is  
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.  
D) Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit  
and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring.  
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.  
E) Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention  
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power  
strips).

Keyboard Setup  
To attach the keyboard to the recorder, plug the end of the Keyboard into a USB port  
located on the back of the machine.  
Mouse Setup  
To attach the mouse to the recorder, plug the end of the mouse into a USB port located  
on the back of the machine.  
The mouse uses a cursor called a pointer. Pointers come in many different shapes but  
are most commonly shaped like an arrow.  
The mouse has two buttons: a left button and a right button. Quickly pressing and  
releasing one of these buttons is called clicking. Sometimes you will need to double-  
click – or click the same button twice quickly.  
In this manual:  
Click means to position the mouse cursor over an item and to single click the left  
button.  
Right click means to position the mouse cursor over an item and to single click the  
right button.  
Double-click means to position the mouse cursor over an item and to click the left  
button twice.  
Select means to position the mouse cursor over a radio button, checkbox, or list item  
and click on it.  
The scroll wheel in between the two buttons is used for added navigation functionality.  
By moving the wheel with index finger (scrolling), quickly move through multiple pages,  
lines, or windows. The wheel may also function as a third button allowing the user to  
quickly click or double-click an icon or a selected item

The video inputs/outputs are 75 Ώ BNC connectors. Make sure there is a video source  
connected to the input and then connect a cable to the Channel Out on the BNC  
Connector Cable. The looping outs can be connected to video monitors or combined  
with adapters to connect to VCRs.  
Looping Output Termination  
When it is necessary to terminate a looping output, the recorder has built in termination  
that allows users to select individual outputs. It is not always necessary to terminate the  
output; it depends on the device to which you are connecting. As a rule, if the image  
appears distorted or virtually unviewable, it likely needs to be terminated.  
ON  
Not connected to a  
monitor (Normal)  
OFF  
Connected to a  
monitor (Looped)  
Always leave the dipswitch set to the ON position when the Looping Outputs are not  
used.

Making Connections  
Connecting a PTZ Camera  
Setting up a PTZ Camera is simple. The recorder comes preassembled with an internal  
PTZ adapter. The cabling may be run up to 4,000 ft using 22 Gauge Twisted Pair.  
It is important to understand how the PTZ connects to the recorder. The recorder  
outputs an RS-232 signal and converts in to an RS-422/485 signal which is then sent to  
the PTZ camera.  
Attaching the 4-Pin Adapter  
RS-422  
1. Locate the PTZ adapter cable  
Signal Line (+)  
2. Connect the wires of the PTZ adapter to the  
PTZ camera. The yellow wire should  
connect to the RX+ on the camera and the  
orange wire should connect to the RX-.  
3. Connect the other end of the adapter to the  
XVR unit as shown.  
4. Assign the PTZ camera an ID number in  
PTZ Setup that coincides with the number  
assigned to the camera. This is normally  
done utilizing a dip-switch configuration  
method on the addressable dome.  
Signal Line (-)  
Example: If the camera is plugged into  
input number 5, set the PTZ unit to ID number 5.  
Optional Components  
To fully utilize the potential of the DVR, several optional Fusion components are listed  
below. Contact a dealer for more information.

Turning On the Recorder  
Once the cables and adapters have been properly connected it is time to turn on the  
power. To turn on the power follow these steps:  
1. Turn on the monitor and any external peripherals (ex. Printers, External Storage  
Devices, etc.) connected to the recorder.  
2. Turn on the Secondary Power Switch located in the rear of the recorder.  
3. Turn on the main power switch located on the front of the recorder.  
The recorder will run a series of self-tests. After two or three minutes a series of  
messages may be displayed as the various hardware and software subsystems are  
activated. Under normal circumstances you should not be asked to respond to these  
messages. If you are asked to respond to the messages (adding a Printer, Monitor, etc  
for the first time) follow the instructions carefully.  
After this finishes, the Fusion recorder software should load automatically and bring you  
to the main screen.  
Turning Off the Recorder  
To turn off the recorder, select the Exit button on the main screen and select Power Off.  
The recorder will safely shutdown, it may take several minutes to shut down completely.  
Caution  
Always be sure to follow the proper procedures when turning off the power  
to the recorder. NEVER disconnect the power to the recorder while it is still  
running or in the process of shutting down. Doing so can cause data loss,  
file corruption, system instability and hardware failure

Setup Options  
Setup Overview  
The Setup options allow optimization of the DVR by adjusting things like camera names,  
recording schedules and more. It is extremely important to setup the DVR correctly for  
several reasons:  
Recording Schedules –Increase the amount of pertinent recorded video that is  
saved on the DVR by optimizing the recording schedule. Optimize the type of  
recording done by adding motion detection to this as well, again increasing the  
amount of useful video.  
DVR Access – By setting up the access passwords, the user has better control  
of the types of access any individual may have. This ensures the security and  
integrity of the DVR.  
Camera Naming – By naming each camera, the location and any other pertinent  
information can be easily identified when viewing it in the Video Display Area.  
Adjusting Camera Color – Optimize the clarity and detail that is recorded by  
adjusting each camera’s color settings.

Video Loss Alarm  
The DVR supports a Video Loss Alarm function which allows an Alarm Event to occur  
when a camera loses its signal. The lost signal can be due to camera power failure to  
the camera, the camera cable being cut or unplugged, or the camera being damaged in  
some way.  
In order to use Video Signal Loss detection, cameras must either be Enabled or  
Disabled. This is because the DVR needs to know which cameras it should expect to  
receive signals from. To enable camera(s), open Frame Setup, and set the Images Per  
Second to anything above zero. By designating zero images per second the camera will  
not be used by the DVR.  
Activate Audio Alarm (BEEP)  
When video loss occurs, an internal speaker on the DVR will sound an alarm.  
Video Loss Alarm Log  
When video loss occurs, the event is recorded in the DVR log.

Frame Setup  
The Frame Setup menu allows configuration of the IPS, resolution, quality, and  
sensitivity of camera channels. When configuring the IPS sliders the BLUE slider  
represents the IPS the DVR will record during intensive recording and have available for  
transmitting to remotely connected systems. The RED slider represents the IPS that will  
be recorded by the DVR under normal recording conditions.  
The total IPS of all blue sliders may not exceed the recording IPS of the DVR. The IPS of  
a red slider may not exceed that of the blue slider for the same channel. The dual sliders  
allow configuration of the DVR to record at a lower IPS while still being able to transmit  
at a higher IPS to remote connections.  
Ex. If a camera channel is set to 25 IPS (blue) and 7 IPS (red), the DVR will record at 7  
IPS and users viewing live video remotely can receive up to 25 IPS.  
Note  
Note  
The RED IPS record slider cannot exceed the BLUE IPS capture slider.  
The Software will not allow the maximum available Frames to be exceeded.  
Frame Select  
Blue Slider: Sets the IPS recorded during intensive recording and available for viewing  
on a remote client PC.  
Red Slider: Sets the IPS recorded by the DVR during normal recording.  
Resolution: Affects the total number of frames per second that are available.  
Codec: Select the appropriate codec for each camera (MJPEG, MPEG-4, H.264)  
Video Quality: Lower quality video has a smaller file size but appears more pixilated.  
Sensitivity: Sets the Keyframe refresh rate. Adjusting this setting can have negative  
effects on video quality.  
Note  
Do not change the default setting unless instructed by a system administrator.

Scheduling Sensors and Relays (By Example)  
It is easy to add advanced recording functionality using Sensor Inputs and Relay  
Outputs.  
SENSOR - Sensor Inputs can be programmed to instantly start one or more cameras  
recording when an alarm occurs. These alarm events can also activate Relay Outputs as  
desired.  
RELAY OUTPUT - Relay Outputs can be set to activate when motion alarms or sensor  
alarms occur.  
The schedule example will be as follows:  
SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Cameras 1 and 2 will be activated on Sensor #3  
and/or Sensor #5, which will then activate Relay Output #7 and #13.  
SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Camera 3 will be set to Record on MOTION.  
When motion occurs it will activate Relay Output #7 and #10.  
SUN-SAT (12AM-11:59PM) Sensor #6 will activate Relay Output #8 when an  
alarm occurs. This event will NOT cause any cameras to record.  
To do this, a total of 3 schedules will be created.

Setup Options  
Setting up DDNS  
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a service that provides a static address to  
simplify remote connection to the recorder. This service is most useful for installations  
where the WAN (public) IP address is dynamic (changes from time to time). Most public  
IP addresses are dynamic unless a static address has been specifically ordered from  
the internet service provider.  
Enable DDNS  
To enable this functionality of the recorder, follow the steps below:  
1. Click Setup on the Live View screen and log in as Administrator if prompted.  
2. Click The Administration tab.  
3. Click Program Management (ETC) and enter the Administrator password when  
prompted.  
4. Click Show (to the right of The agent program for DDNS).  
5. Select the Enable DDNS check box.  
6. Enter the ID, Password, and Hostname specified on the DDNS document shipped  
with your DVR.  
Note  
Ensure the DVR has an IP address by setting it statically. The Network settings  
may need to be changed. If you are not sure of the correct values, contact the  
individual or department responsible for network administration at the site.  
Set the IP Address  
To set the IP address of the recorder, follow the steps below:  
7. On the Live View screen, click Exit and choose Restart in Windows Mode.  
8. On the desktop, right-click Network and click Properties.  
9. In the Network and Sharing Center, click Local Area Connection.  
10. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then click Properties.  
11. Select Use the following IP address.  
12. Enter the following values (or as specified by the department responsible for  
network administration).  
a. IP Address: The first three sets of numbers should match the router’s local IP  
address and the last set should be a unique number between 1-254.  
b. Subnet Mask: This should match the router’s setting (commonly 255.255.255.0  
for 192.X addresses and 255.0.0.0 for 10.X addresses).  
c. Default Gateway: This is the router’s internal IP address. Once DDNS is  
configured, the router the DVR connects to will need to be configured to forward  
ports 80 and 4000 to the IP address of the DVR.  
For further instruction on this process, visit  
http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm  
Select the correct model of router, and follow the instructions. Once DDNS and port  
forwarding have been configured, the recorder will be accessible from any remote site  
by entering the HOSTNAME into the address bar of Internet Explorer or the IP Address  
field in the Remote Software.

Daylight Saving Time  
The recorder automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time changes. When the hour  
“jumps forward” no video is lost because an hour is skipped. However when the hour  
“falls back” there is a duplicated hour that under normal circumstances would be  
recorded over. The Fusion recorder actually records both hours and allows the user to  
select which hour to play if the need arises.  
To access the ‘lost hour’:  
1. From the Search screen, click the Calendar button.  
2. Select the date when Daylight Saving time ‘lost’ an hour. The Daylight Saving  
option appears.  
3. To play back the ‘lost hour’, select the Daylight Saving check box and enter the  
repeated hour in the time box.  
4. Click OK to confirm the date and begin playing the video using standard search  
features.  
Save to JPG or AVI  
The recorder can export single images in a JPG Image file format and save video clips  
in an AVI format. Both JPG and AVI file formats are the most commonly used graphical  
formats today. Virtually every computer offers some type of support for these file  
formats which make them the most ideal formats to use.  
JPG  
Optimized for compressing full-color or grayscale photographic images, JPG images  
are 24-bit (16.7 million color) graphics. Use JPG to export a single image or frame.  
AVI  
AVI image data can be stored uncompressed, but it is typically compressed using a  
Windows-supplied or third party compression and decompression module called a  
codec. AVI is used to export a video clip.

Preview Search  
Preview Search can be used in a number of circumstances to quickly find an exact  
moment where an event, such as a theft, occurred. The Preview Search gives a 24  
Hour visual overview of a single camera by separating a 24 hour period (1 day) into 24  
images, one image for each hour of the day. The search can then be further narrowed  
down into ten minute increments and one minute increments by selecting one of the  
images displayed.  
These example images show how the Preview Search functions.  
The first screen that appears has 24 images displayed. Each image represents the first  
second of each hour. If there is no image recorded during that period then nothing will  
be displayed.  
When an hour is selected (by double-clicking on the image), a new screen appears with  
6 images. Each of these images represents a 10 minute segment of video within the  
selected hour.  
Once a 10 minute segment is selected (by double-clicking on the image) the final  
screen appears which breaks down that 10 minute segment into 1 minute increments  
(10 images).

Pan / Tilt / Zoom Overview  
The PTZ controls within the recorder allow for powerful control over the cameras. This  
can be extremely beneficial by increasing the usefulness of the recorded video. Using  
the PTZ controls you can create custom preset configurations that can continuously  
sweep across large areas.  
Note  
PTZ setup and control is only available for supported video encoders with a  
PTZ RS-485 pass-through.  
Setting up a PTZ Camera  
Setting up a PTZ Camera is simple. The recorder comes preassembled with an internal  
PTZ adapter. The cabling may be run up to 4,000 ft using 22 Gauge Twisted Pair.  
It is important to understand how the PTZ connects to the recorder. The recorder  
outputs an RS-232 signal and converts it to an RS-485 signal which is then sent to the  
PTZ camera.  
Refer to the Connections section of this manual for information on connecting the PTZ  
camera to the recorder.

Backing up Video Data  
Backup Overview  
The Backup Center allows you to back up recorded video data from multiple dates and  
times to one or more locations including the DVD-RW drive, Network Storage Locations,  
and External Hard Drives.  
The recorder can easily backup important video data to an internal or external media  
location. The most commonly used forms of this are CD-R/RWs, External USB or  
FireWire Hard Drives, and Network Drives. Every recorder comes equipped with a DVD-  
RW drive, USB port, and Network Adapter.  
The recorder is capable of performing a backup to multiple CD/DVDs when the file sizes  
exceed the capacity of a single disk. You may also specify multiple locations for backup  
as well as the order they are recorded to.  
The recorder backs up video data using a proprietary compression format that can only  
be read by the Fusion Backup Program. This ensures the integrity of the data.  
Throughout the backup process the recorder will continue recording without  
interruption. This is the result of the tremendous multiplexing power of the recorder,  
which allows it to perform virtually all functions without disrupting the recording process.  
Nero® Express  
The recorder uses Windows® 7® Embedded running Nero® Express 7.0 to write data to  
the DVD-RW Drive. This solution allows the recorder software to read and write data to  
the DVD-RW Drive without formatting the disk first.  
CAUTION: Although many features are available within Nero, it is highly  
recommended that you do NOT use any features other than those necessary for  
the standard backup of video data as outlined in this section, loss of information  
or software instability may result.

LAN / ISDN / PSTN Connections  
LAN Overview  
The recorder can be easily connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) and uses  
Microsoft’s® powerful and secure Windows® Embedded Standard 7 operating system.  
This allows for easy and well-documented instructions on setting up LAN connections  
no matter what type of LAN you want to use.  
A LAN is a group of computers and other devices dispersed over a relatively limited  
area and connected by a communications link that allows one device to interact with  
any other on the network.  
There are many reasons why using Microsoft® Embedded 7 is superior to other  
platforms when running on a LAN. The number one reason is security. Running the  
recorder on a secure network is important to prevent unwanted users from gaining  
access to confidential information. Unwanted users can compromise the integrity of the  
confidential data being stored and viewed, and in extreme circumstances can cause  
irreparable damage to the network.  
Since connecting the recorder to a network can be extremely complex (depending on  
the network), this Fusion recorder manual will cover only the basics. It is suggested that  
the recorder administrator consult the Vendor or IT Administrator before attempting to  
create or connect to a LAN.

LAN / ISDN / PSTN Connections  
Connecting to a LAN Using TCP/IP  
The networking options of the recorder can create and edit all Network settings  
available on Windows Embedded 7. The recorder comes equipped with a 10/100/1000  
Network Interface Card (NIC). This card uses a standard RJ-45 Ethernet connector.  
Configuring TCP/IP Settings  
1. On the Live View screen, click Exit and select Restart in Windows Mode.  
2. Right-click the Network icon located on the desktop and select Properties.  
3. Click Local Area Connections and then click Properties.  
4. Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) by clicking on it once. Once it is highlighted,  
click Properties.  
5. Select Use the Following IP Address option. Enter the IP Address and Subnet  
mask appropriate for the network. It is recommended to contact the Network  
Administrator for appropriate IP settings.  
Example:  
a. Common IP addresses are 10.0.0.25  
b. Common Subnet masks are 255.255.255.0  
Note  
In order to connect to the recorder through a remote LAN connection, a static  
IP address must be assigned. If the network assigns the IP address  
automatically (DHCP), contact the Network Administrator for help assigning a  
static IP address.  
6. If the network requires you to specify the DNS information, enter it now by selecting  
the appropriate DNS options.  
7. When finished configuring the TCP/IP settings click OK to close the Internet  
Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window.  
8. Click OK to close the Local Area Connection Properties window.  
9. It may be required to restart Windows for the changes to take effect. Restart  
windows by clicking the Start button  
on the desktop and clicking Restart.

LDAP Integration  
Features  
The instructions below are for LDAP Integration with Server Software version 3.6.36 and  
above.  
The recorder server does not need to be joined to the Domain. The recorder  
server will query the LDAP server for accounts and authorization levels.  
The recorder server creates groups within Active Directory for each of the  
permissions on the recorder. Simply join a Domain user to these groups to  
provide access to that function in the recorder.  
Recorder access within Active Directory is based on the Site Code within the  
recorder software. This allows an administrator to group recorders with the  
same Site Code.  
Remote and Multi-Site management software works with LDAP logins.

Account in LDAP server that has Domain Admin rights. This user will be used  
initially to create the OU’s and Groups within Active Directory.  
1. Verify that the recorder server is connected to a network that has a valid LDAP  
(Active Directory) server.  
Ensure that the TCP/IP settings are configured correctly for DNS resolution and  
gateway if needed.  
Check to verify that you can ping the LDAP server without issues.  
2. Set up DVR Site Code to be used for LDAP authorization. The default will be 100-  
000. This site code can be used to group recorders together within Active  
Directory.  
3. Log in to the recorder using the local recorder administrator account (non-LDAP).  
4. Navigate to the Setup -> Information tab and change the Site Code.  
5. Log on to the recorder server with the domain account with administrator privileges  
(see above required items).  
If successful, the recorder will log the administrator user on without any error  
messages. You may log off the recorder once this is completed without errors.  
Note  
If you encounter an error please  
verify that the above required  
items are correct.  
6. Go to the Active Directory Users and Computers application. You should now see  
an OU called DVR with an OU inside of it named the same as the Site Code above

Fusion IV DVR User Guide  
Fusion Remote Software Overview  
The DVR was specifically designed to be fully operated and maintained remotely. It  
connects using the standard TCP/IP protocol thorough connection types such as DSL,  
Cable Modem, T1, ISDN, 56K Modem, LAN, and more. The Fusion Remote software  
provides for viewing live video, searching through archived video, exporting images and  
video clips; and provides virtually full Setup control.  
Highlights:  
Search Archived Video  
View Live Video  
Export Images and Video Clips  
Control Relay Outputs  
Setup Administration  
Basics:  
The DVR can have up to five simultaneous remote connections. Each user can perform  
functions on the DVR and will not affect the other users. The only exception to this is  
accessing Setup. Only one user is allowed to access setup at any given time. The  
Frames per Second passed to the Remote Client varies greatly depending on the  
connection type and speed.  
In order to log in to the DVR server, a user account must be made for the user. This  
ensures that only authorized personnel are allowed to log in. In addition, each user can  
be assigned different privileges that allow or deny them access to different functions.  
(See the User Management section.) For example, a user can be denied Searching and  
Setup privileges and only granted access to view cameras 4, 8 and 16.  
Attention It is highly recommended that users not be granted Setup privileges since  
this can pose a security risk. Only authorized Administrators should have  
access to Setup.  
The Remote software operates virtually the same way as the DVR itself. Its appearance  
matches the DVR almost identically, however, there are a few minor differences. Some  
search features are not available as well as some Setup options.
