Excellent video. This worked for me but I had to hold the button down for almost 30s during boot up. And the dvr machine made a long beep. That’s how you know the reset worked.

It's been almost 4 years since I installed the cameras, I just want to look back and see the recording but don't remember the password.

[@josepeter36]

Tyvm this helped me reset the device

[@JasonReset]

You're welcome

[@tayaripatterson5093]

Great accurate information

[@JasonReset]

Thank you

[@nicoleneaga1648]

Thank you!!! My husband chose a device password and couldn't remember it, this saved us lmao

[@JasonReset]

You're welcome!!

[@moxnix]

Faster and easier that calling Tech Support. One thing I miss about my Night Owl CCTV system, a password was optional. FYI this DIY also worked rebooting my Lorex 4K Fusion DVR Model No D881A8B-Z

Thank you. I been trying to find this on lorex side but nothing.

Hi Jason, I have a 16 Ch. NVR N861D6 - Been great for 3+ Years, all of a sudden, it Locks up/Freezes and I have to reboot, then all is good for 2-4 days, I've done the New power Strip, plug it in directly to the wall outlet with no luck - Note: it crashes when I'm searching for videos' - suggestions? Thanks!

[@JasonReset]

Sound like it might be your hard drive

[@randobrando8359]

Would this help if the camera siren goes off on its own?

[@JasonReset]

This will put your recorder to factory default. But you might also have to factory reset the camera that keeps going off. I would try factory resetting the camera first. See here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bma2k3qEaphgnqs

[@rossmorrison1156]

I tried this and held it for a couple minutes and still nothing for a reset

[@JasonReset]

You unplug the unit, hold the button down and don't let go. Plug the unit back up, after you see the logo let go of the button.

[@koty6244]

if my device was already connected to another account, will this help me connect it as a new device on a new account?

[@JasonReset]

No, this won't fix that. Because of the cloud managed, You will have to contact Lorex and they can do it for you.

[@patientmango4989]

Did the button thing and didn't work. Is there more than one button?

[@JasonReset]

Did you unplug the recorder, press and hold the button and don't let go of the button and plug the recorder back in. Once the screen comes back on, let go of the button.

[@leviblanchard8256]

Didnt work for me either​@@JasonReset

[@javierlimon210]

Old footage would be lost correct?

[@JasonReset]

No, only if you format the hard drive. This will only reset the password.

[@dogman807]

Router not picking up lorex . Even though it's plugged into router. Dhcp is enabled.

[@JasonReset]

That's something I need to be there to troubleshoot. It could be a couple of thing, the internet port at the back of the recorder could be faulty. The network setting could be off or your ISP could be blocking the recorder.

[@rlaporte43]

wrong.. My LHB series does not have a reset button nowhere on the board or anywhere on the outside.

[@JasonReset]

You might have a older model.

[@kolossus85]

Plz, I have the model “LHB926”, how do i do a hard reset? I no longer have the login/password.

[@JasonReset]

Did you check to see if you have a reset button? If you don't have a reset button, then you have to contact lorex for a reset password.

[@dogman807]

Mine will not connect to internet. Router is working fine. All plug up and lights working.

[@JasonReset]

In the network setting check to see if you have DHCP is enable.

[@ashokanorthmusic1601]

My system has no reset button how I can reset my DVR

[@JasonReset]

If you have the password, you can go into setting to factory reset. If you don't, then you have to contact Lorex

[@telman5221]

i tried that it didn't work, anything else i can do?

[@JasonReset]

There's only 2 ways 1 - The reset button 2 - You have to contact Lorex and they will send you a temp code. Did your system have a reset button?

[@telman5221]

@@JasonReset yes both ways did not work

[@andreamoreno5996]

Will this work if my monitor just shows the blue lorex screen? I can’t see any live feed

[@JasonReset]

It should, but try this. unplug your recorder, disconnect all the wires from the back. Wait 1 full minute, then power it back up with nothing connected to it. And see if that works. If it does, you might have a problem with 1 of the wires or the hard drive.

[@andreamoreno5996]

@@JasonReset thank you! I will try this, i called customer service a couple weeks ago they had me just unplug it from the power ultimately they told me that my monitor was the issue but we had already been using it, we also replaced the power adapter bc i saw in another video that that might be the issue but it didn’t work

[@JasonReset]

It won't be the monitor.

[@andreamoreno5996]

@@JasonReset i tried what you said and then I opened up the recorder and nothing happened.. the monitor still just shows the lorex screen but it doesn’t say welcome or anything

[@JasonReset]

I'm not sure, that's something I need to see. Does it make any noise when it tries to boot up.

[@ShannonMcDonough1]

I can't find the button

[@JasonReset]

You might have an older model. You will have to contact Lorex

[@nucciococo855]

The reset worked but now none of my cameras came back online. each camera says , invalid username or password.

[@JasonReset]

After doing the reset, there is an option to change the default camera password. If you go to the camera section, try changing the camera password. The default password is 123456. If that doesn't work, you might have to factory reset the cameras.

[@nucciococo855]

@@JasonReset Thanks Jason for the info. I figured it out last night and you were right it is the password the problem. I went to camera registration and chose the cameras one by one and pushed the button reconnect IPC. Once you push reconnect IPC a screen opens and you could re-enter the password. I factory reseted my NVR hoping that it would solve my problems the Lorax app. I keep getting network error or oops something went wrong. Sometimes the cameras are all offline. If someone has seen this problem I would greatly appreciate it if you can help me. Thaks Nuccio

[@JasonReset]

In the network setting, Try changing the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

[@nucciococo855]

@@JasonReset thanks for the info. I already have those numbers.

[@leilanidelmar5107]

Now my screen is stuck on welcome page

[@JasonReset]

What was happening before you factory reset it? Did you try rebooting it?

[@docteurnabila1689]

it didn't work for me

[@JasonReset]

You might be having a different issue with your recorder. You might have to call Lorex

[@Rickysmoker0177]

Doesn't work

[@JasonReset]

Does your model have the reset button inside?

[@fb9bk]

Didn’t work

[@JasonReset]

What model do you have?

[@fb9bk]

I have Lorex Fusion Model No.: N842A8-Z. At first I thought it was the reset switch not working, probed it and it correctly hooked up. Desperately removed the battery but no luck. Guess it’s to keep the time. I welcome any other suggestions.

[@JasonReset]

That's the same model that I have in the video.

[@fb9bk]

Probably same model but strangely different boards. My reset button is located on the right side by the fan.

[@jphomebrew]

What about the hard drive

[@tzu-chengchien]

I tried it but it’s didn’t work, my model is N841 how can I do🥲

[@JasonReset]

If you don't have the reset button, then you have to contact Lorex
