Oh brother... Passwords with security systems are a touchy issue and in many cases you end up loosing the DVR. However, there are several options I have found successful:

1- Open the DVR and see if it has a small battery. Just like in a computer, take it out, wait a while (this could be 2-5 mins in some systems while in others it may take up to 2 hours). This clears out the memory of the system and leaves the DVR with factory default configurations

2- If there is no battery, look for a reset button, a reset jumper or a microswitch

3- If no luck with either one of those, another way is to access the DVR via LAN and change the settings using the CMS software. It uses a different user ID and pasword so getting in it should not be too much trouble.

 

Give these methods a try and good luck!
