2) Turn it on again
3) While the DVR is initializing, the front panel LEDs will blink.
4) When the front panel LEDs blink, poke the straightened paperclip into the unlabeled hole to the right of the HD/SD out selector.
5) Hold the switch until all the LEDs on the front panel are lit.
NOTE: When the DVR successfully resets to the factory default settings, all the LEDs on the front panel will flash five times.
6) Release the reset switch. All of the DVR’s settings at this point are at their factory default settings.
On the other hand, users can export their current device settings before doing the factory reset and can subsequently restore the data to the device once the reset process is completed.
