The MAXPRO NVR PE unit should be mounted with the supplied rail hardware kit. The kit allows the MAXPRO NVR
PE unit to slide in and out of the rack it is mounted in and provides rear support for the chassis. Refer to the
installation instructions included with the rail hardware kit.

NVR Commissioning and Installation Guide for more
Honeywell recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for the MAXPRO NVR PE unit,
camera network switch, and the cameras. Powering the cameras, network switch, and unit from a UPS
ensures that the MAXPRO NVR PE unit can continue to record video during a power outage. If you need to
monitor video during a power outage, consider a UPS for the client workstation and client network switch
as well.
Honeywell recommends turning on the cameras before turning on the MAXPRO NVR PE unit since IP
cameras can take up to two minutes to boot up. Online cameras can be easily discovered by the unit after
startup. It is also recommended to turn on other associated network components, such as a network switch
or router, before turning on the MAXPRO NVR PE.
