Note the solution you buy should be able to be configured and tested at the Dealer location prior to installation in your home, which should reduce the overall install time. Onsite activity will then be confined to mounting the cameras, running audio/video cables from cameras to the DVR location, fine tuning the configuration parameters, and demonstrating the operation of the system. Note the Dealer is backed-up by a very capable and responsive technical support staff at ICRealtime, who deal with both authorized Dealers and homeowners directly to ensure your satisfaction with the system operation.

In the event you are able locate a Dealer who will sell you a system for you to install yourself, be prepared to work with ICRealtime technical support as the product documentation assumes the installer has some level of experience with surveillance systems.
