Question

How can I control my Mace 8-channel DVR from ActiveHome Pro?

Answer

You will need the following items:

Parts List

  • Eight Universal Modules (UM506)
  • A VGA computer monitor (basically, any monitor made in the last ten years, perhaps excepting the newest flat-panels)
  • A USB computer mouse (not absolutely necessary, but nice for setup)
  • Enough extension cords (not surge suppresors) to plug all the Universal Modules in near the DVR
  • Wire cutters
  • Wire stripper
  • A tiny Philips screwdriver
  • A normal-sized flathead screwdriver
