Login

As all the ZIP DVRs come with the same admin password, for security the DVR password needs needs to be changed.

The admin name can be changed from “admin” in order to make the DVR even more secure, how this can be left on “admin”.

1. Enter the Admin Default Password which is 555555.
2. To set a new password enter the desired password into the New Admin Password field.
3. Then re-enter the new password into the Confirm Password field.
   The Password Strength bar gives an indication as to how secure the password is. Aim for a strong password using at least 8 characters and a combination of letters and numbers.
   Note: Do not use a simple code like 12345, if the recorder is on a network this is too weak and easily accessed by malware.
