This poster is intended to help you get your Q-See security system up and running. There are many additional features which can be 

customized to your specific needs. More information and instructions are available in the User Manual included on the CD that came 

with your system or available for download from our website at www.Q-See.com.

For information on how to configure your system for remote monitoring on the Internet or on your smartphone, please refer to the 

Remote Monitoring Guide also included on the accompanying CD.

Your DVR can be controlled using the included USB mouse, remote control or the function keys on the front of the unit. For the purposes of this guide, we will be giving instructions using the mouse. Because this 

guide covers several models in the QS series of DVRs, components in photos may not exactly match those on your particular mode.
