monitor on 12-camera models)

1.4 Setting Date/Time

For proper operation of the M-series DVR Digital Recorder it is essential that the date

and time are set correctly.

If the system clock has an invalid date or time when the M-series DVR is powered up or at

any time during operation, the displayed date and time in live mode will replaced by dashes.

If the clock needs setting, refer to section

1.1.7 page 21.

Note that the time is automatically adjusted forwards or backwards by an hour at the

appropriate dates to take account of British Summertime (daylight saving) so no user action

is required.
