Shield’s video-guide announcement collected training resources for several generations of recorders and apps. Use the equipment model as the starting point so an older tutorial is not mistaken for instructions for a different interface. [1]

Choose the matching family

The original guide grouped AD-H265 recorders, SuperLive Plus, Shield CMS/NVMS, iVMS320 and older AHD/FHD/SHD DVRs. Confirm the recorder and software family before following a tutorial.

Watch, then verify

Compare the demonstrated menu with the device in front of you. Record the existing settings before changing them and test the intended function afterward. A tutorial for one firmware version may use different menu names.

Use the maintained support collection

Visit Support for the embedded video guides and Shield’s YouTube channel for available tutorials. If the correct workflow is unclear, send the model, software version and the task you are trying to complete through the contact form.
