General

This manual provides information for installing and setting up the ViconNet®

VN-NVR Shadow with internal RAIDs.

The NVR Shadow is a high-capacity Network Video Recorder that can

simultaneously capture, view and store high-quality, high-resolution voice,

video and data. It provides scalable, internal RAID-5 storage for medium and

large-scale installations. The 8-bay removable drive configuration (larger

versions have 24 bays) makes it easy to hot-swap drives without having to

remove the unit from the rack.

Mounting

Rack

The NVR Shadow was designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch

(483 mm) wide vertical rack. A rail kit is installed onto the NVR to connect it

to the rack. Hardware and installation instructions on how to use this kit are

provided with the rail kit. The rail mounting kit is included to provide extra

support for the unit in the rack. This rail kit MUST be used.

Note

It is recommended that at least 1 RU of space [1.75 in. (44.45 mm)] be left in

between multiple units mounted in the same rack for cooling purposes.

Warning

Failure to leave space for cooling between recorders may result in

malfunctioning and possible failure of the unit.

Install the two (2) rail kit mounting brackets onto the sides of the NVR

Shadow. Use the instructions supplied with the rail kit. The brackets have

slots and holes that fit directly onto the hardware on the sides of the unit.

Refer to figure below.

Note

Use the square holes in the rail kit for mounting. If this is not convenient, it

may be necessary to use a square hole to round hole adapter.

Important Notes

Do not apply power or plug-in the unit to any outlet until instructed to do so.

Disable the AC power to prevent installer injury and damage to the unit.

Before beginning the hardware installation, ensure that the room or area

designated for the ViconNet hardware installation is well ventilated.

Step 1: Installing the Drives

The NVR Shadow is delivered with the 8 RAID drives packaged in the

accessory kit. Each of the drives (8) must be installed into the unit in the

correct bay for proper operation. Refer to the Front Panel figure for Bay

numbers.

Caution

The RAID drives are configured at the factory and have to be installed back

into the correct bay.

corresponding bay number. Secure the arm back into place.

Caution

Make sure that the serial number on the tray matches the serial number on

the VN-NVR Shadow. Each tray has a label indicating the serial number and

the bay number.
