      Might try this article also:

      Zmodo default password

      thank you very much for this link, it is very handy

      i think my feeling that the jumper can reset the DVR is correct based on this how-to
      http://kb.zmodo.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=2&id=221&artlang=en&highlight=passw...
      but i'm still fear to damage the board because the DVR model in the how-to is different than mine,
      what do you think ?? can i risk and jump the two pins on the motherboard as shown above ??

        I would feel that that is pretty risky myself. Generally that is safe to do, but only generally.

                can you use it without the password? if not, then it really is worthless right now.

                    What do you need the password in order to do?

                        Probably. But not necessarily.

                          what makes me doubtful is the name of jumper (CN8) which mean (i guess) connector not jumper

                                Do you need the password for some reason? does it matter that you do not know it?

                                  of course i need it, if i want to access the IP cameras from another mobile for example or just delete the app on my smart phone and need to create again an account , it is very important

                                        OK so you can't add the app to another device without the password.

                                        Is the device currently in a usable state? Can you view the cameras from the app you have now on your phone, or from your desktop computer?

                                          yeah i can, me and the manager only
                                          the problem is if the manager tell : well i buy new phone and i want you to set up the app on my mobile, then what i do ?? because he do not know about this yet ;(

                                            I think it is time to fess up.

                                            Hey boss, the password for the DVR is lost. I can leave everything as it is now, but when you need new access on a new phone, I will have to try to reset the password, and that may break the box and we will have to buy a new one.
