nsullivan1 0 Posted December 15, 2012 I have a UPS for my DVR5100. Is there anyway I can connect it with the interface cable to the DVR so when the power goes out it alerts me? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssnapier 0 Posted December 16, 2012 Does your UPS have an RS-232 output? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssnapier 0 Posted December 16, 2012 Ok, then you just need to find the command that would initiate a shutdown on the DVR and you are good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
